Concealed Handgun Holsters

It seems like gun use in action movies is nearly ubiquitous. With the exception of a few old-fashioned films, superhero flicks or ninja movies, firearms are the weapon of choice for villains and heroes alike. One of my favorite parts of these action flicks is when the characters go through their pre-battle montage.

These scenes usually feature tough men and women arming themselves to the teeth with every weapon imaginable. There are inevitably automatic machine guns, hundreds of rounds of ammo, and even the occasional rocket launcher. I always find it somewhat amusing when the characters slide a pistol into an ankle holster after going through the rest of their in-depth preparations.

People involved in security or in law enforcement usually carry guns at all times. Sometimes though, especially when working on a case, they have to conceal their weapons. One way to conceal a handgun is through the use of ankle holsters.

Most cops or detectives on duty will agree that it is not enough to rely on just one weapon. For extra protection, it is suggested that they have another one concealed in their clothes. This may be necessary when the need arises.

Women who own guns tend to carry them in their purses.  Unfortunately, purses are what criminals go for first during an attack.  Recent studies show that most gun accidents involve guns used for defense.  This means that women who carry their guns in their purses are more likely to have them used against them during a robbery or attack.

An ankle holster is an easy and safe way for women to conceal their weapons.  Ankle holsters can fit snugly underneath most pants or jeans, and are easy to access in an emergency.  A soft sheepskin lining ensures comfort, and an easy to remove Velcro strap keeps the gun close to the body.
