Massad Ayoob On Shoulder Holsters

 In this video, Massad Ayoob discusses some reasons why you might want a shoulder holster, goes over some techniques for drawing from such holsters, and--for you trainers out there--where you would want to place a student on a firing line if they are using a shoulder holster. He also discusses four angles of shoulder holster carry--vertical, horizontal, downward angle, and upside down--and the pros and cons of each. Those of you that want to conceal under a dress shirt might want to check out the segment on the upside down carry because he also talks about a holster specifically designed for carry under a dress shirt, even with the suit jacket or sports coat off.

  1. "... even with the suit jacket or sports coat off."
    That would be amazing.

    1. The holster and strap was white so it wouldn't show through a white shirt. And it would have to be the thicker fabric and not an athletic fit, but it looks like it could be done.
