We've been turning away people who only want the CHL class, but who don't want to learn about the rules for using deadly force. If they aren't willing to learn how to drive, or learn the rules of the road, then maybe they shouldn't have a driver's license.
Because of recent events, we're prioritizing the "What Do I Do…?" class with the option of adding the Oregon CHL certificate for another $35. Even if someone already has their CHL, "What Do I Do…?" by itself will serve them well.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Firearms safety
- Legal requirements for obtaining an Oregon concealed handgun license
- Legally carrying – open or concealed, where allowed and where not allowed
- What to do when you're armed and pulled over in a traffic stop
- Traveling to other states- reciprocity and recognition
- Your individual concerns
WHAT DO I DO…? - THE LAW AND LOGIC OF ARMED SELF DEFENSE. Would you get a driver's license without learning the rules of the road or how to drive? Of course not, nor would you get a concealed carry license without understanding the laws and tactics of deadly force. This is a "must have" course for anyone who has a gun or who is thinking of buying one for self defense. Learn the law and logic of armed self defense from the unique perspective of a lawyer and police trainer. $65 for individual tutoring; $50 each for groups of five or more. Topics:
- The three survival secrets no other CHL course will tell you
- Shoot/don’t shoot decisions which will send you to jail or save you from it
- What if’s (scenarios using legal principles)
- What to do after a shooting
- Your individual concerns

- "I took your class this past Tuesday…just wanted you to know that my friends and I had a great time in your class. Glad we took it. Thanks."
- "Can't wait to sign up for your next class, "What Do I Do…?" - you are right, simply getting a concealed carry license doesn't prepare you for using a gun in self defense. You have to know the 'rules of the road' for the use of deadly force."
- I took another CHL course some time ago, but it wasn't nearly as good as yours. Your class was so much better, not just because you're a lawyer and can explain the laws, but because it was entertaining!"
- "I enjoy getting the information in your e-letters…Thanks so much."
- "Thanks for the [Springfield] course yesterday. I enjoyed it, it was well worth the drive over from Bend. Like I told you before, my intent is to provide myself some type of annual refresher. You hit the mark."
- "Thanks for your email updates. They are very helpful."
- "Thank you again for the class. It was excellent."
- "I enjoy the newsletter, valuable information."
- "Steve Eichelberger is a serious firearms instructor (and attorney) with a long list of experience to back it up. I’ve taken multiple courses (classroom and live-fire) from him and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone interested in improving their firearms skills and education, especially about carrying concealed and the implications, concerns, and ramifications of doing so."
