About Concealed Carry Society
Concealed Carry Society publishes information about firearms, responsible concealed carry and the gear and resources that support safe ownership. Our aim is to make model differences, product compatibility and important limitations easier to understand.
Founded by Corey Rawlins, CCS grew from his search for a clearer, more accessible source of concealed-carry information. Corey and Jennifer Rawlins helped build the articles, reviews and community that form the site’s foundation.
Daniel “Dan” Guerra became the current owner in October 2026. He is building on that foundation by updating existing articles, checking manufacturer information and improving the site’s clarity and usability. The former team’s profiles below recognize their contribution and distinguish it from current ownership. For how products are chosen and what “hands-on” means on CCS, see How We Choose and Test Products.
Current owner · Since October 2026
Daniel “Dan” Guerra
Dan is a business owner with a background in engineering and IT. He is trained in firearms and has range experience. At CCS, he oversees the website and its ongoing article updates, with a focus on useful information, clear sourcing and a better reader experience.
His current work includes checking model-specific specifications, clarifying holster compatibility, updating coverage-program information and correcting outdated or unsupported claims. He also works on the site’s navigation, gear guides and educational resources.
Dan’s role as owner does not mean he personally performed the testing described in older articles. When revising that material, the goal is to preserve the original contributor’s experience with clear attribution and distinguish it from manufacturer information or a new evaluation.
The People Who Built CCS
The profiles below describe Corey and Jennifer’s work during the site’s previous ownership. Their contributions remain part of CCS’s history; they are not presented here as the current operating team.
Corey Rawlins
Corey Rawlins founded Concealed Carry Society. In his original profile, he described how his responsibilities as a husband and father of three shaped his interest in concealed carry and family safety.
Corey’s original profile reported more than a decade of experience in the firearms industry. His work helped establish CCS’s concealed-carry articles and product reviews.
His aim was to make concealed-carry information more accessible to both new and experienced gun owners through articles, reviews and personal observations.
CCS retains his contribution to the site’s foundation. Where an updated article includes his original firsthand experience, it should remain attributed to him rather than be presented as the current owner’s experience.
Jennifer Rawlins
Jennifer “Jen” Rawlins contributed educational experience and an interest in the Second Amendment to the original CCS team.
Her original profile described more than 25 years in education. During the previous ownership, she helped run the website and YouTube channel and edited articles and videos.
Her work brought an educator’s perspective to the site, including attention to the needs and experiences of women in the concealed-carry community.
She focused on making articles and videos approachable and relevant to readers and viewers with different backgrounds. Her profile is retained here in recognition of that contribution.
What Concealed Carry Society Offers
Articles
Our articles start with firearms and responsible ownership, then cover related subjects such as holster fit, belts, storage and other everyday-carry equipment.
Current updates focus on clear model identification, factual corrections and practical context for readers at different experience levels.
Articles are educational resources. They do not replace qualified instruction, the manufacturer’s manual or advice specific to your circumstances.
Reviews
Our reviews and comparisons explain published specifications, compatibility, tradeoffs and relevant limits.
Not every review is a hands-on test. During updates, we identify the basis of a comparison, preserve attributed firsthand observations and state when no new testing was performed.
Manufacturer claims, historical experience and independently measured results are different kinds of evidence; we work to keep those distinctions clear.
Resources
Our guides explain firearm safety, secure storage, equipment compatibility and coverage-program questions.
Laws and policy terms can change. Consult current official sources, the applicable contract and qualified professionals before relying on general information.
Use our guides as a starting point for research, with the source and review-date information provided in individual articles.
What We’re Working On Now
Under Dan’s ownership, CCS is reviewing existing content rather than treating every older article as already current. Work underway includes correcting specifications and dates, checking source documents, improving comparisons and navigation, and adding clearer explanations of research and testing limits. Some articles remain awaiting review.
Transparency and Corrections
CCS earns affiliate commissions from some qualifying purchases through its links. Affiliate relationships are disclosed; they do not turn a manufacturer claim into an independently verified result. Read the evidence, limitations and disclosures in each article.
A current site byline does not by itself establish who performed an older product test. Historical observations belong to the contributor who made them. If a statement is unclear or appears outdated, please contact us with the article link and the detail to check.
