    9mm subcompact search in on

    Consider the N82 holsters, they're THE MOST COMFORTABLE IWBs you'll find and be worn in multiple positions: crossdraw, appendix carry, hip, behind hip, etc. They keep the weapon away from your skin. There are several YouTube videos that review them, and their website is Link Removed. I just...

    Lightningwear vs. SmartCarry holsters

    I asked some tech questions about Lightningwear vs. SmartCarry holsters, and got a VERY detailed reply from the owner/designer. The info is useful for anyone who is considering "deep conceal" holsters. It's a bit long, but here it is: "I see you've been visiting the SmartCarry website. I'll...

    Think about it: Concealed Carry is actually about fear

    When you boil it all down, we carry weapons (concealed or open) because we're fearful of what might happen. And it makes sense, because bad things sometimes DO happen and we feel the need to be prepared for such situations. OK, that said, how much sense does it make that we DON'T spend time...

    Good cheap compact flashlight

    FYI, I bought a Coleman short-body aluminum flashlight at Walmart, because the package said it was 93 Lumens.

    Carrying a cane or stick in Florida

    I've checked with various police, Highway Patrol, and FDLE personnel in Florida, and they all confirm that carrying a cane, or carrying an Escrima stick, is completely legal anywhere in Florida, PROVIDED that you do NOT have the intention of initiating violence against another (try proving that...

    Telescoping steel baton

    A telescoping steel baton makes an excellent backup and alternative weapon to a pistol. A firearm is a "distance" weapon; it's most effective when you're out of arm's reach. The best way to make a firearm less effective is to close in to arm's reach distance, then knock it out of the way and...

    Printing

    I happen to know that surveys can be rigged to get just about any result desired, by the way the questions are worded, so what study yielded those stats? As to the real-world evidence, mine came from personal experience and from the personal experiences of other officers with the Jacksonville...
