Today at Speed Beez, your online source for gun holsters and speed loaders, we’re going to take a look at 3 different areas you can tend to to build a solid foundation for concealed carry while increasing your everyday readiness in the case of an emergency. Remember, just because you have a gun and a permit does not mean you are ready for the demands of concealed carry.
- Firstly, handle your concealed carry with care. You’ll be handling your gun a lot if you carry or plan on carrying concealed. Knowing how to safely load and unload your handgun, holster and unholster it, repair and clean it, as well as properly storing it, are all vital things to learn and practice. In order to keep you and those around you safe when handling your gun, it’s important that you know and practice safe gun handling and follow basic gun safety rules.
- Secondly, you’ll want to get compatible gear. It’s not hard to find a reliable and defensive gun holster – we even have them! What is difficult is making sure that all the pieces of your concealed-carry system work together. Remember, your handgun needs to function well with your ammunition, be carried in a gun holster that’s comfortable, concealable, and safe, and it needs to function with your lifestyle, body type, and wardrobe.
- Learn from the pros! Many people fail to realize that defensive handgun training is only the beginning of the training you need to truly be prepared. Imagine you are attacked at contact distance. Do you have the physical skills you need to block the attack, gain control or strike so that drawing your gun doesn’t result in a struggle for your handgun? Having practical unarmed skills might be the difference that allows you to arm yourself when you need to.
