Finding Holsters For Light And Laser Equipped Handguns: The Impossible Dream?

February 14, 2014 By Tom McHale 5 Comments

Finding Holsters For Light And Laser Equipped Handguns: The Impossible Dream?

If you’ve been around here before, you know I’m a big fan of lasers for home defense and carry guns. I’m also a fanatical, raving, and kind of creepy bit of a holster geek. But, until recently, I’ve been hard-pressed to equip all my carry guns with lights and/or lasers. Why? Finding holsters for laser-equipped […]

Guns ‘n Guts: Galco Underwraps Belly Band Holster

The Galco Underwraps Belly Band holster is all about options. Which is why we use it a lot. As a belly band design, there is no required “fixed position” for mounting this holster system on your body. You can mount it low around your waist. You can mount it just a tad higher so half […]

The Seven Deadly Sins Of Concealed Carry: Using the Wrong Holster

There are an infinite number of factors that have influence on which holster to use for concealed carry. I wrote a whole book about gun holsters and even that just begins to scratch the surface. The bottom line about gun holsters is that there is no cut and dried option for everyone. The right choice […]

A Comfortable Holster For Big Guns: Blackhawk! 3 Slot Pancake Holster

November 18, 2013 By Tom McHale Leave a Comment

A Comfortable Holster For Big Guns: Blackhawk! 3 Slot Pancake Holster

The Blackhawk! 3 Slot Leather Pancake Holster features not 2, or 4, but 3 belt slots. Tricky huh? It’s for good reason. The placement of the belt slots allow for side, behind-the-hip, appendix or cross draw positioning. The holster backing is large and does a great job of distributing the weight of even large and […]

Some Pocket Carry Options: The Galco Pocket Protector Holster and PMC Magazine Carrier

Galco makes some handy pocket holster for pocket guns like the Springfield Armory XD-S. It’s a rough side out leather design, which helps keep the holster in your pocket when you draw. There is also a leather “hook” cut into the top of the stabilizing panel which is intended to catch on the inside of […]

Now Available In Print: The Insanely Practical Guide to Gun Holsters

“Holsters actually pre-date guns. Do you really think bands of wooly mammoth hunters carried spears and rocks in their hands? After all, they couldn’t invent important things like fire and Brown Sugar Cinnamon Pop Tarts with their hands all full of weapons.” Let’s face it. Choosing the best way to carry a gun can be […]

About Tom McHale…

Hello, my name is Tom McHale. I'm the creator and primary author of the Insanely Practical Guides series of how-to books.

I also write lot's of articles for various shooting related magazines and websites. You'll find my work at Shooting Illustrated, Concealed Carry Magazine, Tactical Retailer Magazine, Beretta USA, OutdoorHub, GunsAmerica, American Handgunner Magazine, Bearing Arms, AmmoLand, The National Shooting Sports Foundation, Grand View Outdoors, and Shooting Sports Retailer Magazine.

I help explain complicated things in a fun and easy-to-understand way. I believe that things don't have to be so complicated, although I suppose excessive techno-jargon keeps lots of well-intentioned lawyers in business.

If you want to learn about the world of guns, shooting and the American way, check out some of my books. Have a laugh or two.
