A Look At Inexpensive Holsters
R.K. Campbell
A Look At Inexpensive Holsters Recently I was challenged by CCM Editor Kathy Jackson to take on the issue of inexpensive holsters--that is, holsters costing less than around $50. This is an interesting topic on several levels. I have often stressed the importance of quality, durable gear. This gear must be good, but it does not have to be expensive. I am familiar with the major . . . keep reading
Whatever Happened to Shoulder Holsters?
Frank W. James
Whatever Happened to Shoulder Holsters? You don't hear much about shoulder holsters anymore. To many, they are about as popular as spoiled milk and about as useful as a dial telephone or a typewriter.

A Guide to Pocket Carry
Duane A. Daiker
A Guide to Pocket Carry Those who choose to carry a concealed firearm in their daily lives are constantly searching for the best way to carry. A shoulder holster may be impractical for your climate or your wardrobe. Wearing a concealed firearm inside the waistband can be uncomfortable, and may not work with your mode of dress all the time. For more and more concealed weapon permit holders, pocket carry is becoming their main method of concealment. Whether you use . . . keep reading

Smart Carry: Revisited
USCCA
Smart Carry: Revisited This week, I'm going to revisit the Smart Carry. As you all probably know, I am a huge fan of this holster, and I wear it as my primary carry rig.

Active Pro Gear: Model 20 Review
USCCA
Active Pro Gear: Model 20 Review For the last two weeks, we've looked at a couple pretty good options for inside-the-waistband (IWB) carry. This week, I want to explore another IWB option that I haven't thought about in a long time. It's called the Active Pro Gear: Model 20 and it is carried in MOB, or Middle-of-Back.
