Welcome and be safe.
I have a very strict gun control policy: if there's a gun around, I want to be in control of it.

Welcome from Missouri.
Now that you have the weapon, don't forget the self education with is a constant and on going thing. Learn not only how to use it, but when to use it and how to defend yourself AFTER using it (if you ever have to).
There are many good sources including anything by Massad Ayoob. Check out his utube videos as well as his articles and books. My favorite two are "The Truth About Self Defense" and "In the Gravest Extreme".
Another favorite is "Concealed Carry and Home Defense Fundamentals" by Michael Martin from Key House Press.
I am sure you can find them on Amazon and other sites and book stores. I have been carrying longer than you have been alive and I am still learning. It is a awesome responsibility and must be treated like one.
Again....Welcome.

Welcome from South Carolina...
Sometimes in life you have to stand your ground. It's a hard lesson to learn and even most adults don't get it, but in the end only I can be responsible for my life. If faced with any type of adversity, only I can overcome it. Waiting for someone else to take responsibility is a long fruitless wait.
