From a competent gun dealer. Small gun dealers will have owners that know more about guns than any department store associate. It depends on which state you live in. If you live in a state that lets you get a concealed carry permit, you can usually take the concealed carry class and the instructor will teach you anything you need to know. Some instruction is good, especially if you want to purchase your first firearm.
