## Resource

Carrying concealed isn’t just “buy a gun and go.” If your holster sucks, your belt sags, or you’ve never pressure-tested your draw, you’re building false confidence instead of real capability. In this episode of We Da People Podcast, Shelton, Colin, Fred, and Dr. Sam Burrus break down what a practical concealed carry setup looks like and the mistakes that get people hurt, jammed up, or exposed in public. We cover: - Holsters that actually work: retention, trigger protection, and why custom-fit Kydex matters - Sidecar vs standard IWB: when an extra mag is worth it (and when it isn’t) - Gun belts are non-negotiable: stiffness, adjustability, and why “regular belts” deform - Appendix vs hip carry: comfort vs access, and what changes in close-quarters pressure - Off-body carry (fanny packs/bags): the risks, the benefits, and what you MUST drill - Knife as a “get to the gun” tool: why blades and alternative access points matter - One in the chamber debate: safety, training reality, and why “best” depends on YOU - Daily-life realities: printing, restroom/grocery store moments, and dressing around the gun - Legal and optics considerations: mods, jury perception, and knowing state-to-state laws - If you carry (or you’re thinking about starting), this one gives you a grounded framework to build a safer, more reliable setup.
