Water in Your Vessel

Water is life! It has also been referred to as the elixir of life (and for good reason). Your body is comprised of 90%  water, and it doesn't take much for you to start feeling its absence. Even mild dehydration will cause your body's function to suffer. Severe muscle cramps can cripple you physically, preventing you from achieving elementary tasks. More importantly, your mental faculties will suffer as well, reducing your ability to comprehend and even solve transparent problems.

If holsters were simply a one-size-fits-all accessory, then a very large portion of the firearm accessories industry wouldn't even exist. The sheer number of variations involved can make choosing the correct holster a rather daunting task and more times than not, leads to entire bags filled with variations of holsters in a closet that never really get used, except maybe as the occasional door-stop. With all the variations, options, materials, colors and so forth offered, people usually settle on using and relying on one or two of the previously purchased ones to prevent spending countless hours searching for other variations that might possibly not cater to their needs again.

Over the next few pages, we will take some time running through the correct approach to understanding, searching and identifying the foundation from which you can then move forward into narrowing down your selections significantly, specifically before you ever begin browsing through the possible holsters available for purchase.

Firearms by nature can be imminently dangerous. The basic approach that should always be considered, understood, and acknowledged relevant to all firearms & weapons are as follows:
