        <p>Are you considering whether to carry a handgun? This is a decision everyone needs to make on his own. Once you do decide to carry a gun, a few questions arise: How? Why? Where?&nbsp;Today, we will try to answer some of those.</p>

        <p><strong>How to carry your gun?</strong></p>
        <p>There are three main styles of carrying your pistol or revolver: In a holster, concealed carry bag, or without it. Each of them has its ups and downs. What should you base your decision on? EDC should meet these three requirements: </p>
        <ol>
            <li><em>&nbsp;Safety </em></li>
            <li><em> Effectiveness</em></li>
            <li><em>&nbsp;Comfort.</em> </li>
        </ol>
        <p><strong><em>“The style of gun carry is core to its effective use…”</em></strong></p>
        <p><strong><em></em></strong><strong><a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/gun-holsters">Holsters </a></strong>– represent the most common and most favorite EDC tool. There are several types of holsters, patterns, and materials that we will be discussing in this blog.</p>
        <p><em>a) safety </em>– choosing the right holster type, allows you to keep your gun under control all the time while moving, drawing, or re-holstering. </p>
        <p><em>b) effectiveness</em> – the speed of a gun-draw and the strength of the grip is a matter of training. Anyway, drawing a gun from a holster is the most effective way in terms of time, and remains a significant aspect of self-defense.&nbsp; </p>
        <p><em>c) comfort</em> – with the right holster, the gun will not obstruct your movement but becomes a part of you. Ideal results depend mostly on the quality of use material and the holster design itself.&nbsp; &nbsp;</p>
        <p><strong><a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/concealed-carry-bags-pouches">Bags, Pouches, and Bum bags</a> </strong>– quite a popular style of gun carry. However, it has its pros and cons. Especially useful solutions for formal occasions but also hiking.&nbsp; It is a nice compromise between “carrying a gun somewhere on you” and “not carrying a gun at all”.</p>
        <p><em>a) safety</em> – you only control the gun up to a certain degree. Above all, there appears a risk of a loss of the gun, or theft. Also, there is a possibility that the bag with the gun might be “just out of the reach” when really needed. </p>
        <p><em>b) effectiveness </em>– You do not carry the gun on your body, but it is reachable. This increases the time needed for quick reaction. Drawing a gun from a pouch requires longer training than drawing from a regular holster. Moreover, the thoughtful design with a focus on functionality is essential. &nbsp;</p>
        <p><em>c) comfort</em> – since you are not in direct contact with the gun, the level of wearing comfort is only set by the bag itself.&nbsp; </p>

            <figcaption>The common way to carry a gun is in a holster or concealed carry bag</figcaption>
        </figure>
        <p><strong>No holster </strong>– this type of gun carry is commonly seen in Mexico or Brazil. This is the worst solution on so many levels:</p>
        <p><em>a) safety </em>– you do not have the gun under control while moving and neither while drawing the gun when needed.</p>
        <p><em>b) effectiveness</em> – the speed of a gun-draw and the strength of the grip is to a great extent limited by an ongoing situation. </p>
        <p><em>c) comfort </em>– longer wearing periods cause a considerate discomfort.</p>
        <p><strong>Holsters and their designs</strong></p>
        <p>Get introduced to the most common and the most popular styles of gun carry using holsters. In today’s world, the variety of gun holsters is enormous. Fortunately, we can sort it out into main categories by the way the gun is carried. </p>
        <p><strong><a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/iwb-holsters">IWB Holsters</a></strong></p>
        <p>IWB (Inside the Waist Band), represents a system of concealed gun carry- the holster is placed between the underwear and pants. Usually attached to a belt by a <a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/comfortable-iwb-concealed-open-top-leather-holster-a105-falcon?variant=778">clip </a>or a <a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/iwb-concealed-leather-holster-with-thumb-break-a108-eagle?variant=802">belt loop</a>. IWB holsters are amongst the most popular types. &nbsp;</p>
        <p>In most cases, the IWB Holsters are made from <a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/iwb-holsters-leather">leather</a>, <a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/iwb-holsters-nylon">nylon</a>, or <a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/iwb-holsters-kydex">Kydex</a>. Another interesting holster style that belongs to this category is <a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/iwb-holsters-belly-bands">Belly Bands</a>. The elastic holster worn around the waist is a great solution for the summer season while wearing just a T-shirt or trousers with no belt. </p>
        <figure><a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/pancake-style-owb-nylon-holster-with-thumb-break-c806-mayer"><img src="https://www.falcoholsters.com/api-eshop/v1/image?query=media/1273545/Bez-jmena-17-.jpg" data-image="4352"></a>

        </figure>
        <p><strong><a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/belt-holsters">OWB Holsters</a></strong></p>
        <p>OWB (Outside the Waist Band) represents an outside gun carry style – the holster is attached to the belt from the outside. OWB Holsters together with the IWB ones belonged, do belong, and will belong amongst the most popular holster types. &nbsp;</p>
        <p>In most cases, the OWB Holsters are made from leather, nylon, or Kydex. Compared to IWB holsters, they provide greater design variability. </p>
        <p><strong><a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/shoulder-holsters">Shoulder Rigs &nbsp;</a></strong></p>
        <p>These holsters are worn on the body, attached to the shoulder harness, and thus are handy for shooters who need to have their belt clear. Shoulder holsters are highly requested amongst armed forces. </p>
        <p>In most cases, the Shoulder Rigs are made from <a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/shoulder-holsters-leather">leather</a> or <a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/shoulder-holsters-nylon">nylon</a>.&nbsp; &nbsp;</p>
        <figure><a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/shoulder-holsters-leather"><img src="https://www.falcoholsters.com/api-eshop/v1/image?query=media/1273545/Bez-jmena-15-.jpg" data-image="4353"></a>

        </figure>
        <p><strong><a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/leg-holsters">Leg Holster</a></strong></p>
        <p>The category of Leg Holsters is mostly intended for armed and defense forces. Bearing in mind the common laws on gun carry all over the world, the use of these holsters is significantly limited. </p>
        <p>In most cases, the Leg Holsters are made from nylon and Kydex. </p>
        <p><strong><a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/concealed-carry-bags-1">Concealed carry bags</a></strong></p>
        <p>Concealed carry bags form an individual category. It is a nice compromise between “carrying a gun somewhere on you” and “not carrying a gun at all”. There are different bag types such as <a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/shoulder-bags">Shoulder Bags</a>, <a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/hiking-gun-carry" target="_blank" title="">Belt Pouches</a>, or <a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/large-bum-bag-for-concealed-gun-carry-g121">bum bags</a>. </p>
        <p>In most cases, they are made of firm materials. The <a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/slim-design-concealed-belt-gun-pouch-g117-s">pouches</a> are not only made for EDC, but also as various <a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/large-organizer-concealed-gun-bag-g116">business bags</a>. Usually, they feature to opening methods – pulling it open for the fastest gun draw, or regular zipper. </p>
        <p><strong><em>“If you find yourself in a situation when you really need a gun for self-defense, you only have seconds to react. “</em></strong></p>

        <p><strong>Conclusion</strong></p>
        <p>Do not forget that “The style of gun carry is core to its effective use…” The optimal holster does not exist, for life leads us to different situations. For this reason, it is advised to keep several holster types for each gun (1x <a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/iwb-holsters">IWB</a>, 1x <a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/belt-holsters">OWB</a>, and a <a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/concealed-carry-bags-pouches">Bag</a> or a <a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/iwb-holsters-belly-bands">Belly Band</a>) to allow yourself to choose the right one for every occasion. </p>

<p style="text-align: center;">Running in-house manufacture with craftsmen making custom holsters one at a time allows us to offer the widest range of gun holsters on the market.

<p></p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;">The Next Objective</h2>

<p>These are uncertain times, and Americans are buying guns like hotcakes. The top guns for protection, like <a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/blog/the-best-glock">Glocks</a>, are flying off the shelves. A lot of first-time gun buyers are leaping into the 2nd Amendment community without a lot of foreknowledge. If you're getting a gun for protection, one of the most important things to learn about is your state's law on carrying a firearm. I want to say, 'Don't worry, you don't need a law degree to figure this out,' but the more I look into carry laws, the less sure I am about that. So bear with me while we try to break this down. We are the experts, after all.&nbsp;<br></p>
<p>The first thing to understand is the difference between:</p>
<ul><li>Open carry</li><li>Concealed carry</li><li>Brandishing</li></ul>
<p>As should be obvious, open carry means everyone can see your gun, and concealed carry means they can't, assuming you're doing it right. Brandishing means different things in different states, from holding it in your hand in public to revealing it to others. Brandishing can be a crime in many places.</p>

<h3>The Legal Labyrinth<br></h3>
<p>While Federal law covers your right to have a gun, it has very little to say about open or concealed carry. The exception is the 1990 federal Gun-Free School Zones Act, which prevents you from carrying within 1,000 feet of a school.&nbsp;<br></p>
<p>It may seem strange, but concealed carry & open carry is&nbsp;legal in most of states. In some states, the application procedure for a concealed carry permit is so demanding that carry might as well be illegal. However, such regulations are actually gradually going extinct as they get struck down by the courts as unconstitutional.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The maze of state-level regs is where things start to get tricky. For example, if you're in a state that allows open carry, but only with a permit, and you have a concealed carry permit, you can open carry too. Some specific areas within a state, especially large cities, will have more restrictive laws than most areas. Going traveling with your gun? There are states that have agreements to recognize each other's concealed carry permits. Here's a guide on how that works.</p>

<h2>Concealed Carry Laws By State</h2>
<p>Like open carry, with concealed carry, each state's law follows one of the levels of restrictiveness. These are:<br></p><figure><img src="https://www.falcoholsters.com/api-eshop/v1/image?query=media/1273553/CC.jpeg" data-image="11940"></figure>
<ul></ul>

<p><strong>Shall Issue to Residents Only:</strong> California, Colorado, Louisiana, Michigan, Nebraska, New Mexico, Guam<strong><br>Shall Issue to Residents and Non-Residents:</strong> Hawaii, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Nevada, New Jersey, North Carolina, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Virginia, Washington, Wisconsin, Puerto Rico, District of Columbia<strong><br>May Issue to Residents Only:</strong> Delaware, Virgin IslandsMay Issue to Residents and Non-Residents: Connecticut, New York<strong><br>Constitutional Carry and Shall Issue to Residents Only:</strong> Alabama, Alaska, Georgia, Montana, Wyoming<strong><br>Constitutional Carry and Shall Issue to Residents and Non-Residents:</strong> Arizona, Arkansas, Florida, Idaho, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Maine, Mississippi, Missouri, New Hampshire, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, West Virginia<strong><br>Constitutional Carry and Does Not Issue Permits:</strong> Vermont<strong><br>Right Denied:</strong> American Samoa, N. Mariana Islands<br></p>
<p>Seems simple right? Keep in mind that according to the <a href="http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/STATUTE-82/pdf/STATUTE-82-Pg1213-2.pdf">Federal Gun Control Act of 1968</a>, felons, fugitives, illegal aliens, and persons of unsound mind cannot buy or possess firearms.&nbsp;</p>

<p>You may have the right to concealed carry in a given state, but that doesn't cover any federal buildings. There may also be restrictions on carry in specific locations like hospitals, stadiums, and (no surprise) airports.</p>
<p></p>
<h2>Do your homework</h2>
<p>This is an overview to give you a general idea. Gun laws change all the time, and the details of your local regulations might be a lot more complicated than what we indicated here. Be sure to do your homework. Give the local PD a call. If you need a permit for concealed or open carry, keep it with you when carrying!</p>
<p>If you're a new gun owner, remember, a firearm is little to no protection if you are not well-trained and practiced in using it. Hit the range regularly, <a href="https://thearmsguide.com/15579/beginners-guide-to-firearm-safety/">stay safe</a>, and welcome to the world of guns!</p>

        <p>Carrying a firearm comes with great responsibility, and finding the right holster is key to a comfortable and practical carrying experience. Personally, I normally prefer to carry <a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/iwb-holsters">Appendix Inside the Waistband</a> (AIWB) simply because my particular frame and choice of clothing demand it. One method of carrying I hadn’t even really considered valid until I started flying planes was the method of <a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/blog/mastering-the-gray-man-concept-a-guide-to-inconspicuous-living">carrying concealed</a> via a <a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/shoulder-holsters">shoulder holster.</a>&nbsp;</p>

        <p>The idea of a shoulder holster might stand out as decidedly <strong>not </strong>CCW-friendly simply due to the nature of the rig being literally strapped to your shoulders. This misconception is probably because most of the time we see shoulder holsters in movies or TV shows when a detective or other character has one on screen. I’ve come to find out that a lot of people actually wear shoulder holsters more frequently than I had originally anticipated so I wanted to test out the concept for myself. </p>
        <figure><a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/folding-leather-shoulder-holster-d108-gazelle?variant=1017"><img src="https://www.falcoholsters.com/api-eshop/v1/image?query=media/1273613/kopia-suboru-dsc_1334.jpg" data-image="11793" alt="how to wear a shoulder holster" title="how to wear a shoulder holster"></a>
            <figcaption>how to wear a shoulder holster</figcaption>
        </figure>
        <p>The first thing that comes to mind when I think of a shoulder holster is the 1987 film Lethal Weapon. In this movie, the two main characters played by Danny Glover (Murtaugh) and Mel Gibson (Riggs) have two varying styles of firearms and carry methods. The more modern and unpredictable Riggs character chooses a <a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/kydex-gun-holsters-beretta-px4-c">Beretta</a> 92F as his duty weapon while Detective Murtaugh’s older and more seasoned character carries a Smith &amp; Wesson Model 19 in a shoulder holster. </p>

            <figcaption>Scene from Lethal Weapon</figcaption>
        </figure>
        <p>To test out this concept of the shoulder holster I thought I would combine the two ideas seen in the movie lethal weapon and see how it works out - does a shoulder holster work with a modern semi-auto gun like my <a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/blog/before-you-buy-the-beretta-m9a3">Beretta M9A3</a>? To find out I enlisted the help of my good buddy Lucas who will serve as our model for today.</p>

        <h2><strong>Choosing the Right Shoulder Holster</strong></h2>
        <p>First things first, it's essential to select a shoulder holster that fits your needs. The Falco Holsters <a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/shoulder-holsters-leather">leather shoulder holster</a> used in this article are specifically designed for the Beretta M9A3, ensuring a snug and secure fit. This ensures proper retention of the handgun while it is in the holster and also ensures that drawing and reholstering the weapon is also a safe affair. My Beretta M9A3 does not feature a manual safety, simple a decocker, and thus it is important that the construction of the holster is such that reholstering won’t run the risk of accidentally discharging the weapon. Some other brands holster designs feature a “one size fits all” design philosophy and I personally think these are suboptimal for both retention and safety, especially with semi-automatic firearms without manual safeties.&nbsp; </p>
        <figure><img src="https://www.falcoholsters.com/api-eshop/v1/image?query=media/1273613/dsc_8592-1.jpeg" data-image="11788" alt="Leather shoulder holster" title="Leather shoulder holster">
            <figcaption>Leather shoulder holster</figcaption>
        </figure>
        <p>Between the more refined brown shoulder holster seen in the photos here and the more modern black <a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/hybrid-shoulder-holsters">hybrid shoulder holster</a>, I much prefer the hybrid design for a few reasons one of which are the two points I mentioned above - retention and safety. </p>
        <figure><img src="https://www.falcoholsters.com/api-eshop/v1/image?query=media/1273613/a9t00969.jpg" data-image="11792" alt="Kydex shoulder holster" title="Kydex shoulder holster">
            <figcaption>Kydex shoulder holster</figcaption>
        </figure>
        <p>So once you’ve selected your preferred shoulder holster, how do you put one of these things on? I’ll admit that my first time doing it felt kind of weird like I was putting on some clothing that was more fit for some sort of dimly lit dance club, however, putting on a shoulder holster is about as easy as putting on a t-shirt, just don’t let all the extra straps and hardware attached to the holster freak you out. </p>
        <p></p>
        <h2><strong>Finding the Perfect Fit - How to Wear the Shoulder Holster</strong></h2>
        <p>Achieving a comfortable fit is crucial for all-day carry. So the first time you wear your holster you will have to adjust it so that it fits with not just your body, but also the clothes you’re wearing for that day. Shoulder holsters typically do not work without a belt so make sure you have a quality gun belt that can support the bottom strap points so that the holster will fit snugly, and won’t dance around under your concealment garment when you’re moving about.</p>
        <figure><img src="https://www.falcoholsters.com/api-eshop/v1/image?query=media/1273613/kopia-suboru-dsc_3247.jpg" data-image="11794" alt="Gun belt" title="Gun belt">
            <figcaption>Gun belt</figcaption>
        </figure>
        <p>Start by putting on the shoulder holster like you would put on your formal jacket. The orientation should be self-explanatory but for the purpose of clarity, you’ll want to make sure the holster for the gun will be on the opposite side of your dominant hand.&nbsp;</p>
        <figure><img src="https://www.falcoholsters.com/api-eshop/v1/image?query=media/1273613/falco_s_05-1.jpg" data-image="11791" alt="Beretta M9A3 in a shoulder holster" title="Beretta M9A3 in a shoulder holster">
            <figcaption>Nylon shoulder holster</figcaption>
        </figure>
        <p>Once the holster is over your shoulders you’ll want to adjust the shoulder harness to the proper height, this will largely depend on what height you prefer to draw from, as well as the length of your gun’s slide. Smaller guns can be worn higher up and still achieve a comfortable draw but larger full-size guns like the Beretta M9A3 are much longer and require a longer draw stroke and thus must be worn much lower to make drawing both safe and comfortable for concealment. </p>
        <figure><img src="https://www.falcoholsters.com/api-eshop/v1/image?query=media/1273613/kopia-suboru-1687332771437.jpg" data-image="11795" alt="Adjustment of harness on shoulder holster" title="Adjustment of harness on shoulder holster">
            <figcaption>Adjustment of harness on shoulder holster</figcaption>
        </figure>
        <p>Make sure the holster sits comfortably, neither flopping around nor restricting your movement. This can be achieved via the <a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/shoulder-harnesses">harness straps</a> found on this style of holster. The brown leather shoulder holster features elastic straps good for giving you a wider range of motion but this style also jostles a bit more when you’re running and moving around.</p>

            <figcaption>Strap for shoulder holster</figcaption>
        </figure>
        <p> The black hybrid shoulder holster features a more secure fit, but will somewhat restrict your movement if it's not adjusted perfectly for both your range of motion and your natural sitting/standing stance. </p>
        <p>While comfort is critical, maintaining concealment is equally important. Experiment with different clothing options to find the right balance. Layering your outfit, such as wearing an unbuttoned shirt or jacket over your shoulder holster, can effectively hide your weapon without sacrificing comfort. I find that shoulder holsters work very well in winter due to most people already wearing very thick clothing or at the very least - some sort of long garment that can easily <a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/blog/finding-the-ideal-concealed-carry-holster-what-you-need-to-know">conceal</a> a large firearm like the M9A3. </p>

        <p></p>
        <h2><strong>Practicing Safe Drawing Techniques From Shoulder Holster</strong></h2>
        <p>Mastering the skill of drawing your firearm safely and efficiently from your <a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/folding-leather-shoulder-holster-d108-gazelle?variant=D108+">shoulder holster</a> requires practice and training. Always remember to keep your finger off the trigger until you're ready to fire as always and be very conscious of your muzzle when unholstering and reholstering from a Shoulder Holster. I would personally run hundreds and hundreds of dry (no ammo in the gun) practice draws and reholsters and even reloads before I incorporate it into my daily routine. </p>
        <figure><img src="https://www.falcoholsters.com/api-eshop/v1/image?query=media/1273613/a9t05666-1.jpg" data-image="11802" alt="Dry firing with a shoulder holster" title="Dry firing with a shoulder holster">
            <figcaption>Dry firing with a shoulder holster</figcaption>
        </figure>
        <p>Regularly practice your drawing motion, ensuring a smooth and controlled movement that avoids sweeping the muzzle across your body or pointing it at unintended targets like yourself or other people in the room. Additionally, you should also practice reloads with shoulder holster counterbalances as both the orientation and position of your magazines will be wildly different not just from more modern ways of CCW, but also because of the variety of available <a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/counter-balance-for-shouder-system">counterbalances</a>. </p>
        <figure><img src="https://www.falcoholsters.com/api-eshop/v1/image?query=media/1273613/dsc_0186.jpeg" data-image="11799" alt="Reloading with a shoulder holster" title="Reloading with a shoulder holster">
            <figcaption>Reloading with a shoulder holster</figcaption>
        </figure>
        <p>I like the black hybrid shoulder holster more because it provides you with a clean and quick reload motion without the need to open flaps before performing a reload. However, its worth noting that the flaps provide an increased layer of retention for those who may be moving around a lot or who are in and out of vehicles frequently. </p>

        <h2><strong>Conclusion</strong></h2>
        <p>Wearing a shoulder holster, such as one of the Falco <a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/hybrid-roto-shoulder-holster-with-double-mag-pouch-d901">hybrid shoulder holsters D901</a>, offers a comfortable and concealed carry option for the Beretta M9A3 and more than 3000 other handguns. Following the tips in this guide, you can confidently wear your shoulder holster while prioritizing comfort, accessibility, and firearm safety.</p>

            <figcaption>Hybrid shoulder holster</figcaption>
        </figure>
        <p> Remember to practice your drawing techniques and perform regular maintenance to ensure a safe and reliable carrying experience, and most of all, select a holster that is made from good durable, and quality leather or Kydex rather than something cheap that will only last you a year or so (if that). Whether for professional use, concealed carry, or for living out your Lethal Weapon fantasies, a shoulder holster combined with your favorite firearm can be a rewarding and enlightening carrying experience.<br></p>

<p>Whether you just bought <a href="https://nationalinterest.org/blog/reboot/glock-21-pistol-worth-your-time-197390">a new pistol</a> or want to step up your tactical game, there are a lot of ways to customize your pistol to fit your style. From lighting and triggers to a new concealed carry holster, here are the best and most common pistol accessories for all gun owners.</p>
<figure><img src="https://www.falcoholsters.com/api-eshop/v1/image?query=media/1273651/banner-gun-attachements.webp" data-image="14322" alt="CZ P09 with accessories" title="CZ P09 with accessories"><figcaption>CZ P09 with accessories</figcaption></figure>
<p></p>
<h2>Rail Mounted Light & Rail Mounted RDS</h2>
<p>Many of the modern handgun manufacturers have at least some form of Picatinny rail on the top or underbarrel. Because of this, shooters usually gravitate toward a <a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/blog/how-to-install-a-red-dot-using-the-glock-mos-system">simple optic</a> like a <a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/blog/the-top-10-red-dot-sights-for-the-sig-p365">red dot sight</a> for the top or a lighting attachment underneath the barrel.</p>
<figure><img src="https://www.falcoholsters.com/api-eshop/v1/image?query=media/1273651/Glock-43-X-with-light-and-its-holster.webp" data-image="14316" alt="Glock 43X with light & light-bearing holster" title="Glock 43X with light & light-bearing holster"><figcaption>Glock 43X with light & light-bearing holster</figcaption></figure>
<p><a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/blog/best-sig-sauer-p365-light-chasing-the-compatibility-of-sig-rail">Flashlights</a> are pretty straightforward and can be used to blind an attacker or light the way, but they also give away your position in a bad situation. Skilled shooters sometimes prefer a laser sight for the stealth advantage and the options of color or the type of laser.</p>
<p>You can find laser sights that pulse intermittently or remain constant at the flick of a switch or the push of a button, but keep in mind that any kind of attachment to your pistol might require a new light-bearing holster or optics-ready holster.</p>
<figure><img src="https://www.falcoholsters.com/api-eshop/v1/image?query=media/1273651/shoulder-holster-with-light.webp" data-image="14317" alt="Springfield Hellcat Pro with a light in a shoulder holster" title="Springfield Hellcat Pro with a light in a shoulder holster"><figcaption>Springfield Hellcat Pro with a light in a shoulder holster</figcaption></figure>
<p>Still, lighting attachments are a popular choice among handgun users because you never know what kind of shooting situation you’ll find yourself in. This is especially a tactical option for concealed carriers, and you can always choose both lights if your pistol has two rails.</p>
<p></p>
<h2>Tritium Sights</h2>
<p>If optics isn't your cup of tea, you might consider swapping out the type of sights on your pistol. When it comes to stock sights, a lot of modern handguns come with the traditional white dot that can be useful in well-lit scenarios.</p>
<figure><img src="https://www.falcoholsters.com/api-eshop/v1/image?query=media/1273651/Night-sights.webp" data-image="14320" alt="Night Sights on a Staccato" title="Night Sights on a Staccato"><figcaption>Night Sights on a Staccato</figcaption></figure>
<p>Unfortunately, defensive situations do not happen only during the day. You might need true night sights that function well in low-light situations. Night sights could be the difference between life and death. Given, that if you have one of the above attachments, you might not have to worry, but it’s still a good idea to have a backup.</p>
<figure><img src="https://www.falcoholsters.com/api-eshop/v1/image?query=media/1273651/gun-with-tritium-sights.webp" data-image="14318" alt="Tritium sights on a Glock 19" title="Tritium sights on a Glock 19"><figcaption>Tritium sights on a Glock 19</figcaption></figure>
<p>Swapping out the rear and/or front sights of your pistol with night sights or the more recent fiber optic sights can enable you to still be accurate at night. If you’re a concealed carrier or just own a gun for home defense, it’s comforting to know you can <a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/blog/everything-you-need-to-know-about-concealed-carry">defend yourself at any time</a> of the day.</p>
<p></p>
<h2>New Grips</h2>
<p>Grips are an accessory that generally separates beginners from veteran shooters because it’s a matter of preference. Feeling comfortable with your firearm is essential to precise shooting, so it’s always a good idea to <a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/blog/falco-firearm-tips-how-to-stipple-a-gun">find grips</a> for your pistol that won’t slip and fit your hand.</p>
<p>Even if it’s just about a different texture because you don’t like how rough or smooth something is, it can affect your mental state when shooting and the slightest factor is worth improving. Not to mention that some grips are smaller which makes them better for concealed carry.</p>
<figure><img src="https://www.falcoholsters.com/api-eshop/v1/image?query=media/1273651/Pistol-with-interchangable-grips.webp" data-image="14319" alt="Grand Power pistol with interchangeable grips" title="Grand Power pistol with interchangeable grips"><figcaption>Grand Power pistol with interchangeable grips</figcaption></figure>
<p>For example, if you know you’re going to be getting a lot of rain over the next week you might consider using grips that are textured to be non-slip. Or, if you go with a larger grip because of your hand size, it might help to have finger grooves. The point is that there are grip options for anyone and any situation.</p>
<p></p>
<h2>Trustworthy Storage and Transportation</h2>
<p>Something that’s constantly overlooked is the importance of a <a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/gun-holsters">good holster</a> and gun safe. Whether you’re law enforcement, military, concealed carrying, or new to shooting, finding a <a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/belt-holsters">holster that sits comfortably on your hip</a> for hours is a great accessory to invest in.</p>
<figure><iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/6VT29K66M5g?si=1M_ZPMc_sCNnZ8FH" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></figure>
<p>Holsters can be specific to a manufacturer or firearm, especially if it’s an odd design or you’re <a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/optics-ready-lightbearing-holsters">using an attachment as light or RDS</a>. They can be hard-case or softer, outside the waistband or inside, canted or straight. Much like grips, your holster is all about preference and what you need it for.</p>
<figure><iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/LA5KRd-K9Yo?si=FpVEdYEKAXy2_pPJ" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></figure>
<p>Whatever the choice of the holster, at the end of the day you will need a place to store your firearms. If you have children or a collection of guns that you don’t want to be used against you by an intruder, a gun safe is another essential accessory for any serious shooter.</p>
<p></p>
<h2>Tactical Trigger</h2>
<p>Seeing as the main component of shooting boils down to pulling the trigger, a replacement system should always be considered. Becoming familiar with your handgun is important, but some shooters are more comfortable with a single- or double-action trigger.</p>
<figure><img src="https://www.falcoholsters.com/api-eshop/v1/image?query=media/1273651/Trigger.webp" data-image="14321" alt="Tactical trigger on a pistol" title="Tactical trigger on a pistol"><figcaption>Tactical trigger on a pistol</figcaption></figure>
<p>On the other hand, you might like a different weight to your trigger pull. If it’s too heavy that it jerks when you fire, you might want something crisp with a quick reset, or vice versa. The spring can also affect the pull, so just think and find out whether you want it for competition shooting or you simply want it hard & safe.</p>
<p></p>
<h2>Conclusion</h2>
<p>Whatever the case, you’ve got decisions to make and a lot more customization options out there. Remember that safety comes first, so treat every gun like it’s loaded and make sure you have a safe place to store it.</p>

<p>I consider the subject of this article to be one of the three major arguments in the gun community. There’s Glock vs. 1911, 9x19 vs. .45 ACP, and 5.56 NATO vs. 7.62x39. Caliber wars can be exhausting, and the answer is so subjective, I don’t think there will ever be one that’s definitive. However, unlike picking your favorite football team, choosing a caliber is usually influenced by data and logic. The purpose, availability of ammunition, and type of weapon can and should influence your caliber selection. Today, we’re going to look at the individual properties of our contenders, then compare the two.</p>
<h2><strong>Fast and Light: 5.56x45mm</strong></h2>
<figure><img src="https://www.falcoholsters.com/api-eshop/v1/image?query=media/1273588/2.jpg" data-image="8119"></figure>
<p>The 5.56 is an intermediate cartridge. The .22 caliber projectile is small and gains its effectiveness from its velocity. Depending on the specific load, 5.56 can reach velocities ranging from 1,100 to over 3,000 feet per second. The most popular bullet weights are 55-grain, 62-grain, and 77-grain. Barrel length also plays a large part in the effectiveness of the round. Longer barrels, like the original 20” barrels used in the Vietnam conflict, give the bullet a much higher velocity than the now popular 10.5” or 11.5” barrels.</p>
<p>The 5.56x45mm was based on the .223 Remington, which was developed hand in hand with the AR-15. It saw extensive use in Vietnam, and users began criticizing the cartridge, stating that it often failed to pitch and yaw, leaving targets on their feet. This problem worsened as barrels were shortened. Originally, 7.62x51mm was adopted by NATO, but after realizing that it was unwieldy during fully-automatic fire, 5.56 was adopted.</p>
<figure><img src="https://www.falcoholsters.com/api-eshop/v1/image?query=media/1273588/3.jpg" data-image="8120"></figure>
<h3><strong>SPECS</strong></h3>
<ul><li>&nbsp;Bullet weight: 55gr, 62gr, 77gr</li><li>&nbsp;Bullet diameter: .224”</li><li>&nbsp;Case length: 1.760”</li><li>&nbsp;Velocity: 1,100 - 3,000+ FPS</li><li>&nbsp;Maximum range: About 600 yards</li></ul>
<figure><img src="https://www.falcoholsters.com/api-eshop/v1/image?query=media/1273588/4.jpg" data-image="8121"></figure>
<p>In many ways, 5.56 is the 9mm equivalent in its own caliber war. The smaller cartridge means that more rounds can be held in a smaller space. The cartridges themselves are lightweight, meaning shooters can carry far more rounds on their bodies. Felt recoil is minimal when firing 5.56, and a wide range of accessories and aftermarket parts are available to tame it even further.</p>
<figure><img src="https://www.falcoholsters.com/api-eshop/v1/image?query=media/1273588/5.jpg" data-image="8122"><figcaption>Photo Credit: Bronson Eguchi</figcaption></figure>
<p>One of the biggest drawbacks to the caliber is that its ballistic performance relies on pushing a small projectile at breakneck speeds. This means that the bullet has the possibility to go through a target much easier, as well as leaving a small hole. </p>
<h2><strong>Slow and Heavy: 7.62X39</strong></h2>
<figure><img src="https://www.falcoholsters.com/api-eshop/v1/image?query=media/1273588/6.jpg" data-image="8123"></figure>
<p>The 7.62x39 is the most common caliber in the world. People have been using it to gain or eliminate freedom for decades. The cartridge is based around a .30 caliber projectile. Velocities can hover around 1,000 FPS on the low end, but exceed&nbsp; 2,400 FPS on the high. Bullet weights vary, but the most popular are in the 120-grain range. While the round is primarily known for its association with AK-pattern rifles, some have sought to cram the chunky round into AR-15s. Due to the shape of the round, curved magazines are necessary for reliable feeding.</p>
<figure><img src="https://www.falcoholsters.com/api-eshop/v1/image?query=media/1273588/7.jpg" data-image="8124"></figure>
<h3><strong>SPECS</strong></h3>
<ul><li>&nbsp;Bullet weight: 117gr, 123gr, 124gr</li><li>&nbsp;Bullet diameter: .309”</li><li>&nbsp;Case length: 1.524:</li><li>&nbsp;Velocity: 1,000 - 2,400 FPS</li><li>&nbsp;Maximum range: About 400 yards</li></ul>
<figure><img src="https://www.falcoholsters.com/api-eshop/v1/image?query=media/1273588/8.jpg" data-image="8125"></figure>
<p>If the 5.56 is the 9mm, 7.62x39 is the .45 ACP. The bullets are heavy, consequently making them slow. The recoil impulse can be stout, but feels more like a gentle push than a hard punch. The size of the round also means a large wound channel, giving the bullet a higher chance of damaging a vital target. Inexpensive surplus military ammunition is often easy to come by, which also makes it easier to afford long days on the range.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p>
<figure><img src="https://www.falcoholsters.com/api-eshop/v1/image?query=media/1273588/9.jpg" data-image="8126"><figcaption>Photo Credit: Ryan Ogborn</figcaption></figure>
<p>The weight of x39 ammunition is one drawback that can’t be ignored. All of that weight adds up quickly and can lead to fatigue. Also, while inexpensive ammunition can be found relatively easily, much of it is old, corrosive, and can have issues with reliability. Due to the shape of curved magazines, good mag holders can be difficult to locate. </p>
<h2><strong>Which is Better?</strong></h2>
<figure><img src="https://www.falcoholsters.com/api-eshop/v1/image?query=media/1273588/10.jpg" data-image="8127"></figure>
<p>There is no right answer to this question. I know it's boring, but the truth is that, like all things, both calibers have pros and cons. I honestly don’t believe that one is better than the other. Just like the 9mm vs. .45 debate, it all comes down to the shooter’s personal preference. </p>
<figure><img src="https://www.falcoholsters.com/api-eshop/v1/image?query=media/1273588/11.jpg" data-image="8128"></figure>
<p></p>
<p>Both rounds will give you the result that you want, but which one can you consistently control and connect with? Which is most readily available where you live? Are you someone who buys a box at a time, or do you have cabinets full of ammo? With which can you afford to train? All of these factors are more important when deciding on a caliber than their ballistic performance, because if you can’t fill a magazine or hit your target, what’s the point? </p>

<p>Now, if I had to give my personal opinion, I would select 5.56x45mm. Yes, I am an American, so 5.56 and .223 ammunition is very much available (even with current events). However, I base that decision more on the idea of making more small holes than less big ones. The controllability and low-weight ammunition mean that I can hit where I aim and have plenty of rounds on me if I don’t. 7.62x39 might hit harder, but you can carry almost twice the amount of 5.56 in the same size <a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/rifle-mag-pouches">ammo pouch</a>. The massive aftermarket for 5.56 is another huge draw. If you have a specific purpose for your bullet (hunting, home defense, military), someone out there makes a special loading just for you. I don’t know of many 7.62x39 loadings meant for taking deer. However, if anyone has some 7.62x39 that they want to give me, you know where to find me! Be sure to do your research before deciding which you prefer and continue to train!<br></p>

            <li><strong>Retention:</strong> With the added weight and dimension of the TLR-7 SUB, it’s essential to choose a holster that offers good retention, ensuring that the handgun stays in place during all activities. We highly recommend custom holsters made exactly for a combination of your handgun with TLR 7 SUB.</li>
            <li><strong>Material:</strong> The material plays a pivotal role in comfort and durability.<a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/leather-holsters-for-pistols-with-tactical-lights"> Leather light-bearing holsters</a>,&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/kydex-holsters-for-pistols-with-tactical-lights">Kydex light-bearing holsters</a>, and <a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/nylon-holsters-for-pistols-with-tactical-lights">nylon light-bearing&nbsp;holsters</a> are&nbsp;popular choices. While leather offers comfort, <a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/lowprofile-iwb-kydex-holster-a901-2021">Kydex</a> offers shape retention.

            <li><strong>Accessibility:</strong> The purpose of having a light is to use it when required. Ensure that the holster does not interfere with light controls. In this way you will reassure yourself that light will be fully charged &amp; ready to be used whenever you draw your gun.</li>
            <li><strong>Price: </strong>Quality holsters come in various price ranges. Ensure that you’re not compromising quality for cost, but also that you're getting value for your money.</li>

        <p>“Two world wars!” This is a statement you’ll often hear from 1911 fans who think the platform is still the best. This is in reference to the service that the 1911 saw in both the first and second world wars. The statement has become somewhat of a joke, as we all know the pistol didn’t actually win either of those wars, but I actually find that the words do the classic firearm a disservice. The 1911 has seen far more action than just two world wars. I’d like to take time to give credit to the 110 year-old design that just won’t quit. Sit back, enjoy some butterscotch hard candies, and listen to a tale that spans a century. This is the history of the Colt 1911.</p>
        <h2><strong>A New Age of Firearms</strong></h2>
        <figure><img src="https://www.falcoholsters.com/api-eshop/v1/image?query=media/1273578/2.jpg" data-image="7512"></figure>
        <p>The man above, if you are unaware, is John Moses Browning. If firearms design had its own Mount Olympus, he would likely sit at the top, lightning bolt in hand. Thought of as one of the greatest designers of all time, John Moses Browning worked with firearms from the time he was seven years old. That young boy would grow to design several of the world’s most popular firearms, including the Colt Model 1903 Pocket, the Winchester Model 1887, and even seven calibers.&nbsp; </p>
        <p></p>
        <figure><img src="https://www.falcoholsters.com/api-eshop/v1/image?query=media/1273578/3.jpg" data-image="7513"></figure>
        <p>Browning designed the 1911 in the late 1890s. In 1906, the U.S. armed forces were seeking to replace the current standard issue sidearm. The 1911 overpowered the competition, which consisted of firearms including the Savage Model 1907 and the Deutsche Waffen und Munitionsfabriken (DWM) Luger, chambered in .45 ACP. The pistol was adopted and given the official designation Model of 1911, which would later be changed to M1911. Three years later, the M1911 would take part in its first world war; The Great War.</p>
        <figure><img src="https://www.falcoholsters.com/api-eshop/v1/image?query=media/1273578/4.jpg" data-image="7515"></figure>
        <p>The M1911 saw its first major use during WWI. The large caliber, semi-automatic pistol was a clear advantage over the .38 Long Colt M1892 revolver that it replaced. However, data collected in the harsh conditions of the muddy, bloody, four year war lead to the first major revision of the design. These changes, implemented in 1924, after the fighting had stopped, gave the M1911 its new designation as the M1911A1. Though the changes were largely external (a shorter trigger and a longer beavertail, among others), the intent was simply making the gun simpler and easier to shoot.</p>
        <p></p>
        <figure><img src="https://www.falcoholsters.com/api-eshop/v1/image?query=media/1273578/5.jpg" data-image="7516"></figure>
        <p></p>
        <p>You need two world wars to make the opening statement of this article. Starting in September of 1939, we had one. Throughout the war, nearly two million M1911A1 pistols were produced. With increased demand, production was spread among several companies. Even Singer, known for their sewing machines, played their part in producing M1911A1 pistols. While <a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/blog/unveiling-the-all-time-best-1911-holster-comprehensive-guide-to-1911-concealed-carry" title="">WWII 1911 holsters</a> were far from great, U.S. soldiers managed to deploy the pistols and cross the Rhine. The 1911 went on to be used in countless conflicts around the world including the Korean, Vietnam, and Gulf wars.</p>
        <h2><strong>Evolution of the Platform</strong></h2>
        <p></p>
        <p>Like all things, firearms must evolve to keep their relevance. Even a design as loved and respected as Browning’s 1911 had to get with the times, lest it be forgotten to all but the bookworms.</p>
        <p></p>
        <figure><img src="https://www.falcoholsters.com/api-eshop/v1/image?query=media/1273578/6.jpg" data-image="7517">

        </figure>
        <p>In 1970, the world was introduced to the Colt Government Mk. IV Series 70 1911. While it looked largely the same, there were some significant design changes. One of the most notable was the collet barrel bushing.</p>
        <p></p>
        <figure><img src="https://www.falcoholsters.com/api-eshop/v1/image?query=media/1273578/7.jpg" data-image="7518"></figure>
        <p>This new barrel bushing was split, using four “fingers” instead of one solid tube. Though it was less solid and more prone to breaking, the collet bushing provided better lock up with the barrel, leading to better accuracy. Among other changes, the Series 70 pistols were made available in 9x19mm, 9mm Steyr, .38 Super, and .45 ACP. Shortly after, in 1971, the Lightweight Commander was introduced. These pistols were lightened, using an aluminum frame for comfort while carrying. The guns mated a shortened slide with a standard-sized frame. The Combat Commander shared the Lightweight Commander’s dimensions, but was heavier due to an all-steel frame. The introduction of the Colt Government Mk. IV Series 80 in 1983 added an internal firing pin safety. It also did away with the collet bushing, due to concerns of their integrity. </p>
        <figure><img src="https://www.falcoholsters.com/api-eshop/v1/image?query=media/1273578/8.jpg" data-image="7519">
            <figcaption>Photo by Pierangelo Tendas</figcaption>
        </figure>
        <p>In 2014, the United States Marine Corps ordered 12,000 M45A1 CQBP (Close Quarter Battle Pistol) handguns. These were a modernization of the then 103-year-old design. The sights were upgraded to tritium night sights. The single recoil spring was swapped for a dual spring system, to help tame the recoil of the .45 ACP cartridge. The safety was made ambidextrous, and most obviously, the guns were given a desert tan Cerakote finish.<strong><br></strong></p>
        <h2><strong>The Future of the 1911</strong></h2>
        <figure><img src="https://www.falcoholsters.com/api-eshop/v1/image?query=media/1273578/9.jpg" data-image="7520"></figure>
        <p>With all of that history behind it, where is the 1911 going? As we see more shooters opting for lower weight, higher capacity options, what place does a 39 ounce, eight round gun have in our world?</p>
        <figure><img src="https://www.falcoholsters.com/api-eshop/v1/image?query=media/1273578/10.jpg" data-image="7521">
            <figcaption>Photo by Staccato</figcaption>
        </figure>
        <p>While they’re not technically 1911s, I thought the 2011 platform is worth mentioning. As a step toward the future of the 1911 pistol, I believe the 2011 is the right step. Combining the capacity advantage of a plastic fantastic, with the legendary trigger and shootability of the traditional 1911 makes sense. These guns find a middle ground that addresses some issues and highlights triumphs of 1911-style firearms.</p>
        <figure><img src="https://www.falcoholsters.com/api-eshop/v1/image?query=media/1273578/11.jpg" data-image="7522">
            <figcaption>Photo by Sam Weitzner</figcaption>
        </figure>
        <p>A wider variety of calibers makes the gun a good option for those who are more sensitive to recoil. Some 9mm 1911s hold 10 rounds in a magazine, which might be low by today's standards, but the weight of the gun will eat up that energy, making it more pleasurable to shoot.</p>
        <figure><img src="https://www.falcoholsters.com/api-eshop/v1/image?query=media/1273578/12.jpg" data-image="7523">
            <figcaption>Photo by Jeff Cramblit</figcaption>
        </figure>
        <p>The 1911 is still prevalent in the competition world. High speed, low drag, $4,000 guns are not uncommon. If professional shooters are still using them, there must be a reason. I personally know police officers who still carry a 1911 and trust their lives to them. Aftermarket support is great for 1911s, as well. The gun has been around for so long, <a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/gun-holsters-colt-m1911-a1-7rd">1911 concealment holsters</a> are abundant. Paired with a good <a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/leather-belts">belt</a> for CCW, and you’re ready to roll.</p>

        </figure>
        <p>Whether you believe that the 1911 won two world wars, or you think that they are completely irrelevant, I think we all need to admire what the design has done for firearms. Nearly all modern semi-automatic handguns sprang from this design. I still hear people on the range say things like, “It’s no 1911 trigger, but…” Though its popularity may be dwindling, the 1911 changed the world, changed the way we think of firearms design, and deserves a spot in your safe.<br></p>

        <h2>History of P365</h2>
        <p>The development and release of the Sig Sauer P365 in January 2018 marked a pivotal moment in the evolution of concealed-carry firearms. This history delves into the reasons behind its creation, development, testing, and the blend of old and new features that distinguish the P365.</p>
        <p>The idea for the P365 emerged from a clear market need for a sub-compact striker-fired handgun that did not sacrifice capacity for size. Sig Sauer recognized a growing demand among concealed carry permit holders and law enforcement professionals for a more concealable firearm that still offered the firepower and reliability of larger models. The aim was to create an ergonomic micro-compact that met all the criteria of the market while differentiating the P365 with its higher capacity.</p>
        <figure><img src="https://www.falcoholsters.com/api-eshop/v1/image?query=media/1273643/2.webp" data-image="13666" alt="Sig P365" title="Sig P365">
            <figcaption>Sig P365</figcaption>
        </figure>
        <p>The development of the iconic P365 took only 2 years which is a huge success considering the capability of this handgun. Everything centered mainly around fitting the 10 rounds into a small grip, while keeping it ergonomic &amp; modular.</p>
        <p>The team's approach was innovative: they started with the magazine design, creating a unique, staggered magazine that offered a higher capacity (10+1 rounds) without significantly increasing the handgun's size. This was a departure from the traditional single-stack magazines used in most micro-compact firearms.</p>
        <figure><img src="https://www.falcoholsters.com/api-eshop/v1/image?query=media/1273643/ezgif-4-5c86784314.webp" data-image="13676" alt="Sig Sauer P365 Holster" title="Sig Sauer P365 Holster">
            <figcaption>Sig Sauer P365 Holster</figcaption>
        </figure>
        <p>In designing the P365, Sig Sauer built upon the strengths of their existing handgun lineup. They integrated features from their popular P320 and P238/P938 series, such as the emphasis on a clean, crisp trigger pull and a high level of ergonomics and reliability. However, the P365 also introduced a lot of new elements which we take a look at in the next section.</p>
        <p></p>
        <h2>Specifications and Key Features</h2>
        <p>This sleek, micro-compact marvel, chambered in the versatile 9mm Luger, is a masterpiece of firepower and design ingenuity. As I mentioned earlier, what really sets the P365 apart is its remarkable balance of size and capacity. Imagine a magazine that holds 10 rounds, or even 12 with an extension, all neatly packed into a frame that's only 5.8 inches long, 1.0 inches wide, and 4.3 inches high with a flush magazine. It's like having the power of a much larger gun in the palm of your hand!</p>

            <figcaption>P365 Magazine</figcaption>
        </figure>
        <p>But it's not just about size. The P365 comes armed with X-RAY3 Day/Night Sights, offering unmatched visibility whether it's high noon or the dead of night. The grip? A masterpiece of ergonomics, fully textured to stay firmly in your hand even in the most adrenaline-fueled situations. And let's not forget the finish – a sleek, durable Nitron coating that's as tough as it is stylish.</p>
        <p>As for performance, the P365's trigger pull hits that sweet spot at around 6 lbs – heavy enough to guard against accidental discharge, yet light enough to ensure a swift, responsive fire when needed.</p>

            <figcaption>P365 Trigger</figcaption>
        </figure>
        <p>Innovations? The P365 is full of them. From its unique staggered magazine that defies the norms of micro-compact capacity, to its slim profile that makes concealing <a href="https://www.falcoholsters.com/iwb-holsters-sig-sauer-p365">P365 in IWB holster</a>&nbsp;a breeze, this handgun is at the cutting edge of firearm technology.</p>
        <p>Whether you're looking for a personal defense weapon or a reliable backup for law enforcement duties, the P365 adapts to your needs. The price varies, however, you can usually get a new one for around $550,00 which is definitely not much considering its features. </p>

            <li><strong>Slimmer Profile: </strong>Despite the increased capacity, the P365 maintained a slim, easily concealable profile, setting it apart from bulkier compact models.</li>
            <li><strong>Improved Sights: </strong>The P365 initially came with X-RAY3 Day/Night Sights, providing superior visibility in various lighting conditions, a feature not commonly found in micro-compacts.</li>
            <li><strong>Enhanced Ergonomics: </strong>Attention was given to the grip and overall ergonomics, making it comfortable to hold and shoot, despite its small size.</li>
        </ul>

        <h2>Range Performance</h2>
        <p>During my hands-on experience with the SIG Sauer P365 at the shooting range, I found it to be an exceptional firearm, particularly impressive in terms of ergonomics and accuracy. Its compact size made it incredibly easy to handle, a quality I found especially beneficial for shooters with smaller hands like myself. The grip, textured and well-designed, provided a firm and comfortable hold, which significantly contributed to the ease of managing recoil. Because of its small frame, the recoil was a little more snappy, however, well-controlled, allowing for quick follow-up shots without significant loss of aim.</p>

            <figcaption>Test of Sig Sauer P365</figcaption>
        </figure>
        <p>The reloading process with the P365 was notably smooth. Magazines dropped freely and efficiently, making for quick and hassle-free reloads, a feature that I found to be a significant advantage in a self-defense scenario where every second counts.</p>
        <p>As for accuracy, the P365 truly excelled. At standard self-defense distances of 15 to 30 feet, I was able to achieve impressively tight groupings. I attribute this level of precision to both the inherent design of the firearm and the X-RAY3 Day/Night Sights. These sights were particularly effective, offering clear visibility in various lighting conditions. Whether it was under the bright midday sun or in dimly lit evening scenarios, the sights remained distinctly visible, aiding in target acquisition and accuracy.</p>

            <figcaption>P365 sights</figcaption>
        </figure>
        <p>In conclusion, I experienced no issues shooting around 500 rounds from this handgun. The SIG Sauer P365 proved to be a well-rounded, highly capable handgun. Its combination of compact ergonomics, manageable recoil, efficient reloading, and exceptional accuracy makes it an ideal choice for both personal defense and range shooting. The experience left me with no doubts about its capabilities and its standing as a top choice in its category. The only real issue is its proprietary rail that prevents mounting of the most tactical light on the market. You would need to have a light specifically made for Sig P365 or a rail adapter. The unique solution to this issue is also swapping the grip module for the one that has a classic Picatinny rail.</p>

        <p>However, it's worth noting the P365's snappier recoil might be a challenge for some, and the grip size could be small for users with larger hands. Despite these considerations, the P365's overall package — balancing size, capacity, and performance — makes it an excellent choice for personal defense. Its performance &amp; concealability is a testament to Sig Sauer's commitment to innovation and quality in firearm design.</p>
