Concealed carry and fast draw.

[Will Carry]

Any gun carried in "deep concealment" is going to take longer to draw.
IF one's primary goal is to somehow "outdraw" the thug who walks in the door with his gun in hand, then the primary goal is ridiculously flawed.
Those who carry "deep" understand the delay factor but do so KNOWING that most clown-heads won't be expecting what happens next...

The ability to quickly deploy your weapon is an advantage. Trying to draw against a BG who already has the drop on you is suicide. Thinking your opponent is stupid and incompetent will get you killed too.

You're, of course, entitled to any opinion you wish. But the fact is that anyone who is skilled at arms and has a WINNER'S mindset can easily prevail over someone who has the drop on him.

This is just one example, and there are many more like it if one cares to look:

ETA: I am amazed the clerk let that douchebag live. I don't think I would have been so generous.

My choice came down to a 442 in one of my handmade pancake holsters.

Nice leatherwork.

Yes for the most part we were drier than most of the states but over time I/we got totaly soaked on occasion too.
