Concealed carry insurance
Concealed carry insurance is a type of specialized liability coverage that takes care of legal fees and other expenses that may arise if you injure or kill someone using a concealed weapon such as a handgun. Coverage typically applies if you shoot another person in self-defense but you may also be covered in other situations such as if your firearm discharges without you pulling the trigger.
