Why this course
What it's actually about.
The drawer full of abandoned holsters is a running joke for a reason. Most people buy on price, discover the holster is uncomfortable or unsafe, and stop carrying.
This course covers what actually distinguishes a good holster and how to match one to your body, your firearm and your daily routine.
What it covers
- Carry positions and their real tradeoffs
- Materials and construction quality
- Trigger guard coverage and retention
- Belts — the component that makes or breaks the system
- Matching a holster to your clothing and daily routine
