Description

The carry setup I built years ago may no longer fit the hands, body, eyesight, and shooting ability I have today. In this video, I break down five common concealed-carry mistakes older gun owners make—from carrying a gun I can no longer shoot comfortably to overlooking what happens after a defensive shot—and I share practical fixes I can start tonight. I explain how I evaluate my current firearm and holster, test a realistic concealed draw, refresh fading shooting skills, prepare for the aftermath of a shooting, and keep the five carry rules at the center of the whole setup. I also reveal two mistakes I still catch myself making. 0:00 Update Your Carry Setup 0:37 Carry a Gun You Can Shoot 3:20 Fit the Holster to Your Body 6:34 Test Your Real Concealed Draw 9:10 Refresh Fading Shooting Skills 11:44 Plan for After the Shot 14:17 The Five Carry Rules #ConcealedCarry #GunSafety #FirearmsTraining #OlderShooters #SelfDefense
