#26: Everyday Carry Essentials: Mastering Concealed Carry and Holster Training

Welcome to a new episode of Patriot on Purpose. Today, we dive deep into the world of everyday carry (EDC) and holster training. We discuss the essentials of concealed carry, exploring the best practices for selecting and using holsters, including the popular Vanish holster. We dive into the critical importance of regular training, highlighting various methods such as dry firing, laser training systems, and live ammo practice. Listeners will hear our personal stories and expert tips on balancing comfort and capacity when choosing an EDC weapon, ensuring you're prepared without compromising on safety or practicality. We also touch on the value of community in training, the benefits of training with purpose, and the importance of being ready for real-life situations.

Highlights: 

"As soon as stress is introduced, you have to start filtering out the right thing to do. If you don't have fundamentals, you won't be able to do much of anything." 

"The most important thing is to carry. Realize you have the fundamental right to do that and exercise it."

"Train with a purpose. Shooting for fun is one thing, but shooting to prepare for real-life situations is what truly matters."
