I still think that Ayoob's "gravest extreme" should go with every CCW or 
first time gun purchase.  I can't afford his classes, I might be keen to 
go to Thunder Ranch some winter, but I still think he gives the best 
advice in terms of legal and civil protection, without compromising one's 
safety.  S&W's training classes, some of which have been chartered here
at GAT guns in Illinois, spend a lot of time on legalities.  I'm planning 
on signing up if I can ever get in.
