If you conceal carry, it’s easy to make these common mistakes. However, try to avoid them despite how common they are. If you don’t, your license and safety may be at jeopardy. With great power comes great responsibility, and concealed carry is no exception. Respect what it means to have a firearm on your body and understand how to use it properly.
What Is Your Mindset?
Evaluate what your mindset is when you decide to conceal carry. The proper mindset should include the desire to protect and defend those you love the most and strangers around you as well. Without the proper headspace, you can easily misinterpret the purpose of concealed carry. Abuse of this right can come across as an intimidation technique to those around you. Prevent this from happening and try to respect the purpose of concealed carry and what it means to have a firearm in public.
How Often You Carry
How often you carry can affect your best carrying practices. If you decide not to carry for a while and start again, you risk forgetting the best practices that were once habits. The more often you carry, the better you can hold to the routine and remain prepared for what to do in the event of a crisis. If carrying begins to feel foreign to you, consider attending a training session to reacclimate to regular carry.
Routine Maintenance
It’s easy to remove your firearm and holster at the end of the day and forget about maintenance. It’s understandable—if you didn’t have to fire the firearm, why clean the gun or holster? However, it’s crucial you keep up with basic maintenance to prevent a malfunction.
One often-overlooked tip for maintaining your concealed carry weapon holster is to tighten the holster’s fittings. Maintaining your holster will improve its longevity and functionality, helping to keep you and everyone around you safe.
Of course, ensure you aren’t overcleaning your barrel as well. Try to instill a routine check-up on your firearm and reapply as needed.
It's easy to make these common mistakes while you conceal carry. Prevent them by keeping up with routinely maintenance, carrying as often as possible, and evaluating your mindset periodically.
