5 Ways to Holster Your Firearm

December 11, 20222 min read

There are many different ways to holster a firearm, and the best method for you will depend on your personal preference and the type of firearm you are using. Here are five of the most common options:

1.    Belt holster: This is a popular choice for law enforcement officers and others who need to carry their firearm on their person. A belt holster is worn on the hip or thigh and is secured by a belt or other strap. There are many different types of belt holsters available, including outside the waistband (OWB) holsters, inside the waistband (IWB) holsters, and ankle holsters.

2.    Shoulder holster: A shoulder holster is worn under the arm and is secured by a strap that goes over the opposite shoulder. This type of holster is often used by undercover law enforcement officers or others who need to keep their firearm hidden.

3.    Pocket holster: A pocket holster is a small, lightweight holster that fits into a pocket and is designed to keep the firearm in place while it is being carried. This is a good option for those who want to carry a small firearm discreetly.

4.    Ankle holster: An ankle holster is worn around the ankle and is secured by a strap. This type of holster is often used by law enforcement officers or others who need to carry a backup firearm.

5.    Backpack holster: A backpack holster is a specialized holster that is designed to be worn inside a backpack. This is a good option for those who want to carry their firearm in a backpack but still want to have easy access to it.

It's important to remember that when holstering a firearm, you should always follow proper safety protocols. This includes making sure the firearm is unloaded before holstering it and checking to ensure that it is secure in the holster before carrying it. Learn more at my Florida Concealed Carry class.

Also, be sure to follow all Florida gun laws and familiarize yourself with your responsibilities as a Florida gun owner.

Looking forward to talking with you soon, your friendly neighborhood firearm instructor,

James
