Welcome to another episode of "I Carry." Like we did last week, this week is another I Carry Spotlight from SHOT Show 2020 in Las Vegas, NV. At the show, I talked to five different holster manufacturers about new holster models coming out in 2020. The new fits, line additions and upgrades presented are barely scratching the surface of the products offered by each company, of course. Look for an increasing number of fits designed around red-dot-equipped handguns, for one thing, as evidenced by the large number of pistols and dots released in 2020.

Here's just a sample of the new products that will be available for your EDC gear.

Manufacturers and models presented are:

1. Dark Star Gear: New Light Wing holster accessory, Koala magazine pouch

2. DeSantis Gunhide: SlimTuk, Variable 87, Inside Heat TB holsters

3. Mission First Tactical: IWB, Minimalist holsters
 
4. PHLster: Floodlight OWB holster

5. CrossBreed Holsters: MT2, ST2, Chest rig holsters

Obviously, these are just a small fraction of the new holsters available for 2020 - check back through our SHOT Show coverage for more holster fits released in 2020. And, as always, stay tuned to Shooting Illustrated and "I Carry" for more holster fits as 2020 progresses.

Tech Wisdom: Snakes vs. Patches

My friend and I have a few different handguns we use on a regular basis. Some are for competition, some are for personal defense, some are for casual shooting and I even hunt big game with a handgun.
