Your personal protection journey is your own personal journey and no one can make you do anything. There is no one-size-fits-all solution for personal protection. Therefore, you must find ways to make concealed carry fit into your lifestyle.
GLOCK Pistols
The most popular GLOCK models for concealed carry among men and women are: the GLOCK 19, GLOCK 43, GLOCK 43X and GLOCK 26. When you’re selecting a firearm for concealed carry you should be able to handle the firearm comfortably.
Holsters
In the personal defense world Kydex holsters are extremely popular due to their durability and retention. They’re available for both inside and outside the waistband. Depending on the clip your holster is equipped with, you may be required to wear a belt to secure the holster to your body. Your holster is an essential accessory for your firearm. When searching for a holster you should look for these three qualities:
1. It should cover your trigger guard.
2. It should secure your firearm.
3. It should allow access to your firearm reliably.
Belts
A quality belt is necessary because it’s needed to secure the firearm to your body and support the additional weight of your firearm and holster. Which belt you choose depends largely on your personal style and budget.
Applying These Tips
Hopefully, this article provided a few concealed carry tips to help you safely carry your firearm for personal protection. Once you’ve selected your ideal accessories try using them around the house while doing routine things like sitting on the couch, sweeping or bending down and grabbing things from a lower cabinet.
