Holstering

OK, here is one of my pet peeves regarding gun handling skills. I was watching Personal Defense TV the other night and the host had to look at his holster each time he put his gun back in. Even worse, he was fumbling around trying to get it in. Now maybe he was using a borrowed gun and/or holster but I’m sorry, if you are putting this stuff on TV you need to at least have the perception of professionalism.

My point is that you should be so comfortable with both your carry gun and your carry holster that you are able to holster without looking. And of course the corollary is true – you are able to draw you gun without looking for the grip.

And yes, this is another drill that you do without going to the range. Spend some time developing this skill and you’ll look even better than the experts on TV.
