Taking our sons, nephews and male friends to the range to learn about shooting just seems like the right thing to do. But often, we leave the girls at home on those days that we pile guns and gear into the truck for a day of plinking.

Have you ever thought how would you draw and fire from the ground? If not, you should. The first time you fire a gun while lying on your back should not be in a self-defense situation. Think about it. When you’re standing with your arms stretched out holding your handgun, you don’t have to worry about hitting any other part of your body. When you’re on the ground, who knows what might get in the way. And what if you’re lying on your gun and can’t reach it from that position?

I’ve long been a student of holsters, especially as technology has advanced in holster manufacture. I study them, looking for both flaws and improvements over previous models. Plus, I’m always in search of the perfect holster. It’s not out there yet, and it probably never will be, but I will continue the search.

As someone who prefers to carry a concealed handgun everywhere I go, I spend a lot of time researching the laws of the various states in which I travel. There are websites that have compiled the laws that regulate concealed carry by state, which are a fairly good place to start. However, I’m always unsure of how up-to-date these websites really are, especially as I have often found mistakes listed.

If you ever get in a self-defense situation, you might have to reload to continue the fight. There are two types of reloads—the speed load and the tactical reload.
