I, Attorney Eric Puryear, have been an NRA Instructor for nearly as long as I have been an attorney. Several years before becoming an NRA instructor, I created the website LearnAboutGuns.com, with the purpose of advancing gun rights and gun safety knowledge. Over the years I have given the Iowa Permit to Carry Weapons class to employees, friends, relatives, and others. Sometimes I’ve given one-on-one classes, and other times I’ve had groups up to a dozen people at once. I find giving firearms-related training to be a enjoyable way to spend some of my free time. I also handle gun rights restoration matters in Iowa and Illinois. As an attorney, I have represented many clients with firearms-related cases, ranging from FFL issues with the BATFE, to creation of gun trusts, and self defense shootings, to various firearms possession charges.
At Puryear Law, we offer two options when it comes to firearms matters:
1. A live, one-on-one telephone or in-office conference with me (Attorney Eric Puryear) to discuss firearms and self defense law. We will spend about 45 minutes addressing use of force law and any other questions you may have about guns and self defense. This is not a permit to carry weapons training class that provides a completion certificate. Instead, it is a chance to discuss self defense law with an attorney who has taken self defense gun use cases to trial. I created this option as I have had many people over the years want to talk to me about guns and self defense after obtaining their permit to carry weapons in Iowa or their concealed carry license in Illinois, or who want to have the peace of mind of knowing they’ve already talked to an attorney in the event they ever have to use a gun in self defense. The cost is $100.00, and this is a non-refundable purchase that allows you to schedule time on my calendar. Click here to make that purchase for $100 using a credit card, debit card, or bank account.
2. A regular telephone consultation to discuss matters such as creation of a NFA gun trust, restoration of gun rights, appealing the denial of a permit to carry or FOID, BATFE matters, or anything else other than what is offered in paragraph (1). To schedule, please use the following calendar:
