Riding Shotgun With Charlie #195 Riley Bowman ConcealedCarry.com    I met Riley in passing at SHOT Show a few years ago. We exchanged info and he said he would enjoy being on the show. On a trip to Denver, I reached out and messaged him and we were good to go. Then on the day I was heading there, I didn't hear from him. I called Neil Weidner (RSWC #116) to double check the number. When I did get in touch with Riley, he wrote a text but didn't come through. Regardless, it all worked out. I met him at the ConcealedCarry.com offices in Sheridan, CO.    Riley grew up in Idaho and has been a lifelong shooter and hunter. During the crash of 2008, he had a construction company that went out of business.   In 2009, he moved to Colorado to a bigger city due to the economy. He was a project manager for the government doing construction projects. After a few years he went back to having his own construction company, but then an interest grew in becoming a firearm instructor. He started with some of the NRA training programs and started doing some volunteer police work. Those duties varied between things like driving a patrol car and filling a shift, crowd control at large events, and even responding to natural disasters.    Eventually, he became certified for pistol and rifle and started to teach more. Once the classes picked up more, he stopped volunteering and focused on instructing, expanding his knowledge base and offering more classes to clients. Riley also started competing more often, too. By 2015, he was working full time with ConcealedCarry.com. The new business was geared towards helping new instructors with booking classes, marketing, and developing websites. While offering the courses, he started offering products to clients. Products ranged from holsters and belts to training aids, books, and other classes. Seven years later, they've got hundreds of products offered to help people carry. Over the years, they went from more training and less products to more products and less training.    On his personal website, you'll see that Riley does offer training around the country. He has also done some instructing at the Active Self Protection Conference.He also keeps his schedule busy with competitive shooting, too. Besides the businesses, instructing, and competing, he's got a wife and five children that he also wants to spend time with. As he says, he's trying to raise some freedom loving Americans.    The great thing about people like Riley is their business sense. He's taken ConcealedCarry.com and purchased several other companies over the years. Each one has its own customer base, marketing plan, and business plan. Keeping several businesses going is similar to when he was a project manager and running the construction business. There's lots of things going on that need attention and never a dull moment.    The current businesses under the ConcealedCarry.com umbrella are: Range Tech Timer, Mountain Man Medical, Barrel Blok, KSG Armory, Dry Fire Pro Shop, and Ready Up Gear. Links are below, of course. Riley and his team also have their own conference, called The Guardian Conference.    I'm always excited to hear about people who make massive changes in their careers. Going from construction to volunteer policing to firearm instructing and running several businesses with hundreds of products cannot be easy. But Riley and his team have great products. And he wouldn't go back to construction and project managing because every day he gets to do what he loves.  Favorite quotes:  “Now it's fully reversed. Used to be training and a little bit of product sales. Now it's a little bit of training and a lot of product sales.” “Juggling a lot of things doesn't cause me a lot of stress.” “It's also important to us that we help people be well rounded self defenders.” “I really, really enjoy what I do now. It doesn't feel like work.” “Everyday, I get to talk about, teach about, or actually do guns.” Riley Bowman Website https://www.rileytbowman.com/   ConcealedCarry.com https://www.concealedcarry.com/   Range Tech Timer https://www.rangetechtimer.com/   Mountain Man Medical https://www.mountainmanmedical.com/   Barrel Blok https://bloksafety.com/   KSG Armory https://ksgarmory.com/   The Guardian Conference https://guardianconference.com/   Dry Fire Pro Shop https://dryfireproshop.com/   Ready Up Gear https://readyupgear.com/ Second Amendment Foundation https://secure.anedot.com/saf/donate?sc=RidingShotgun    Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms https://www.ccrkba.org/     Please support the Riding Shotgun With Charlie sponsors and supporters.    Buy RSWC & GunGram shirts & hoodies, stickers & patches, and mugs at the store! http://ridingshotgunwithcharlie.com/rswc-shop/   Dennis McCurdy Author, Speaker, Firewalker http://www.find-away.com/   Self Defense Radio Network http://sdrn.us/   Buy a Powertac Flashlight, use RSWC as the discount code and save 15% www.powertac.com/RSWC   SABRE Red Pepper Spray  https://lddy.no/1iq1n
