"Okay showing you the different types of holsters we have and how they carry and where they carry. What I am going to demonstrate now is I have a strong side hip holster I will be drawing from. I'll be doing techniques with drawing from a strong side hip holster right handed. What I would do if I were engaging a target, my first step would be with this hand, wherever my hand reach back, come down and put my hand high on the back strap of this weapon which means this back strap is this little indentation. The web of my hand fits firmly right there. From there, this one has a locking mechanism. There are some that have to push down, twist and rock forward to pull out, twist to rock the opposite way and lean it back. There are a multitude of different combinations on different holsters. Triple retention, double retention and all of those. That's why I employ whatever you get for a holster to use for firearm, make sure you are well versed in it. You don't want any surprises, god forbid if you ever need it you don't want to be fumbling around and you forgot if its a twist pull, yank or punch it three times. You don't want to get caught up in that so you want to get well versed by standing in the mirror and doing it continuously do it 50 to 100 times where it becomes second nature and then even need more so practice after that but that is just the bare minimum to get acclimated to it.
