When it comes to firearms, there's been a horde of new shooters to join the mix in the last couple of years. Many of them are thinking about how to carry a concealed firearm for the first time.

We'll also take a look at some holster options that are ideal for each position, including models from CrossBreed, Blackpoint Tactical, and Galco.
