      Gun Digest Book of Concealed Carry Volume II - Massad Ayoob

      INTRODUCTION

      So, about 20 books into the writing side of my career, Corrina Peterson and Jim Schlender at Gun Digest told me, We want you to write a book on advanced concealed carry.

      Which begs the question, What the hell is advanced concealed carry?

      Well…

      Due to an anomaly of state law combined with need at the time, I began legally carrying a loaded and concealed handgun in the year 1960 at the age of twelve, working part time in my father’s jewelry store. It led me on an odyssey that shaped my adult life, researching and teaching weapons and deadly force to armed citizens and police alike. When I wrote Gun Digest Book of Concealed Carry in 2008 and revised it to create the second edition in 2012, I did my damnedest to cover the advanced stuff within the parameters of book length limits, and reader feedback indicated that I had done so.

      Half a decade later, advanced largely meant catching up with current trends, those trends hopefully being advancements, at least in the eyes of those who adopted them. Appendix inside-the-waistband (AIWB) carry has come much more into vogue, and so have carry optics. So, I went to the oracles of both: Spencer Keepers, probably today’s leading guru of AIWB, and Karl Rehn, who has done to my knowledge more science-based research on the efficacy of optical sights on concealed carry handguns than anyone else. Their wisdom is shared in the book you are now reading. (Thanks, guys.)

      Gun Digest Book of Concealed Carry Volume II: Beyond the Basics delves more deeply into subtleties. For instance, how to draw from disadvantaged positions – on your face on the ground, seat-belted behind a steering wheel, or with someone younger and bigger and stronger than you being right on top of you and trying to keep you from getting your gun out to defend yourself against him and his nefarious friends – and still be able to defend yourself and your loved ones from death or great bodily harm. We delve deeper into the fine points of drawing the concealed handgun and bringing it into action.

      All of us who’ve been carrying discreetly concealed for a long time have tried and discarded many guns and many carry systems. We talk about the proverbial holster box that contains the ones that didn’t work for us. It quickly turns into a holster drawer, a holster bin, or maybe even a holster room that archives the ones that failed. I don’t have a holster building for those yet, but the day may come…

      For our purposes here, though, I fall back on the philosophy of that great strategist, Otto von Bismarck. It is said that experience is the collective aggregate of our mistakes. But Bismarck famously said that wisdom is found in learning from the mistakes of others, without pain and suffering to you and yours. In this (and, frankly, my other books) I’ve tried to gather as much collective and institutional experience as I can to share with you both the lessons from the mistakes and the lessons from the successes.

      Much of what’s in here I learned in almost four and a half decades as a sworn, armed police officer. I did police work part time, and little of what you find here is my own experience; most of it was gathered in the training environment from the vast institutional experience of policing in America (and elsewhere). All of those American cops carried in plainclothes when off duty and sometimes when at work; they faced the same criminals you armed yourself to protect you and your loved ones from; and the parallels are strong. In thirty years of writing the Ayoob Files column in American Handgunner magazine, each the intensive study of a gunfight based on the words of those who experienced it, I learned a lot and was proud to share that learning with the readers.

      This book is best read in tandem with some of my other books. Deadly Force outlines the legal and ethical parameters of using a gun in self-defense; Gun Digest Book of Concealed Carry, latest edition, gives more of the basics of being discreetly and accessibly armed; and Combat Shooting with Massad Ayoob and Gun Digest Book of Combat Handgunnery contribute to the how to shoot fast and straight part of the equation.

      It would have been nice to simply jump in where my last concealed carry book left off, but a practical consideration intervened: there was no guarantee that every reader would have read the last one. Thus, there’s some catch-up on drawing technique that mirrors what was shown in the previous book. If you’ve read that one, my apologies for the rerun.

      I didn’t want this book to be a catalogue of holsters available to the public at the time the manuscript went to the publisher, because it would have been incomplete by the time it came off the presses. The proliferation of the Kydex gear has practically put a holster-maker in every community. If you thought there was a copycat thing going on in the firearms industry, wait ‘til you look at the holster industry. I thought it was better to go generic, and go into detail on the pros and cons of each type of holster.

      Obviously, we can’t talk about concealed carry holsters without discussing the guns they are intended to conceal. And it’s not just about size and shape and weight. The gun is carried in the first place in case you need it for immediate defense of self and others. That means selection parameters must include things beyond size and shape: power level, on-board round count, and shootability under stress.

      This book looks into the current crop, and breaks down the different categories of carry gun, explaining why one may need a wardrobe of them (and of course, holsters) to go with the varied garments we conceal them under in different climates, of society and temperature alike. In each category, we hone in on one particular make and model that has made itself the favorite of more concealed carriers than any other handgun in its class, and how and why that came to be. Some of that takes the form of reprints of articles I’ve already published in the firearms journals on those particular handguns.

      An explanation is due the reader here. In going over reader reviews of my books on Amazon, I’ve found the occasional person who was somehow disappointed that this or that chapter had appeared previously as an article, as if they had been cheated with old goods sold as new. Au contraire. That particular chapter, having been vetted by earlier readers in article form, has already passed one test without complaint. Moreover, a writer generally does his or her best the first time out, with the research and testing fresh in their mind and on their desk, and rewriting it to make it look new doesn’t improve anything. Since all my gun tests follow the same protocol, there will inevitably be some repetition, such as when I explain the rationale of measuring both a whole five-shot group and the best three hits within it. When the articles are read sequentially, yes, there is redundancy. However, as both a reader and a writer of non-fiction, it has been my experience that the person reading it often skips through, reading the chapters not in the order of presentation but in the order of personal interest in the particular thing under discussion in that spot. For those readers, it is important that the same necessary explanation be in each such segment.

      Once the shooter puts the shots in the right place, it’s the job of the bullets to stop the threat in time to achieve the objective of protecting innocent life and limb. Caliber war debates have gone on longer than anyone reading this has been alive, and won’t be settled anytime soon. But a recent meme of all service calibers are the same cries out for an in-depth look at the relative effectiveness of the three most popular defensive pistol cartridges. It is included here.

      I’ll have passed my 69th birthday by the time you read this, having carried concealed and loaded handguns for 57 years. Decades of association with the firearms instructors at law enforcement agencies huge to small, and with armed citizens and cops alike carrying guns discreetly concealed but readily accessible, have gone into this book. So have many years of picking the brains of the best makers and designers of holsters and the belts that carry them.

      I hope this book will bring as much useful knowledge to those reading it as the research brought to the guy who wrote it.

      LATEST CONCEALED CARRY TRENDS

      Advanced practice in any discipline has to take into account the latest trends. Concealed carry is no exception. Recent trends include carry optics, appendix inside the waistband carry, and emerging new doctrine in safe holstering/reholstering. Let’s look at them all.

      Red Dot Carry Optics

      Red dot electronic sights captured the appreciation of bullseye target shooters as soon as they came out. Brian Enos at Bianchi Cup in 1984 and Jerry Barnhart by 1990 in IPSC, the International Practical Shooting Confederation, pioneered their huge popularity in speed shooting and practical shooting competition. As with computers and telephones, the technology eventually became sufficiently miniaturized that it could fit on a concealed carry pistol, and carry optics were born. We are seeing more and more of them at classes, most often in the hands of tech-oriented millennials and geezers like me with fading eyesight. What do they bring to the table?

      To answer that question specifically for this book I turned to a colleague who, to my knowledge, has done more scientific study on this topic than anyone else on the planet. Karl Rehn is a master instructor and owner of KR Training in the Austin, Texas, area. I was one of the many who took part in his ground-breaking comparison of carry optics with other sighting systems. You can hear him discuss it in more depth on the ProArms Podcast at proarmspodcast.com.

      Karl’s study encompassed 118 shooters over a year and a half to examine the red dot sight’s practicality vis-à-vis conventional iron sights, laser sights projecting a bright green dot onto the target downrange, and slide-mounted carry optics type red dot sights with and without backup iron sights (BUIS) on the pistols. The study was supported by university grant funding.

      Karl explains, My background is engineering and tech, 23 years evaluating security systems. I look at gear through that lens. When something new comes out, how can we measure whether it’s better?

      Says Karl, A lot of the data we had before involved United States Practical Shooting Association (USPSA, the American arm of IPSC) competition in the 1990s, and red dots on military rifles. The big difference is these were all frame-mounted sights, not slide-mounted guns, and those guns’ sights didn’t move every time firearm cycled. Also, both dot and tube were typically larger on those. Carry optics are different, smaller. A lot of people think carry optics will be the same as what’s found on an ‘open gun’ in pistol competition or on a rifle. They’re not.

      Shooter in foreground is doing very well with carry optics.

      Matthew Schinzing came in top shot at his MAG-40 class in South Dakota with concealable red dot on his 9mm Glock, a combination he uses for daily carry.

      Bill Quirk was a city detective working a task force with U.S. Marshal’s Service when he showed me his daily carry. That’s a Trijicon RMR on his Glock 17…

      …which is otherwise highly customized with department approval, and riding in a concealable Safariland holster designed expressly for carry optic-equipped pistols.

      Rehn is proud of the impartiality of his test. We had no equipment donated by vendors. Another study was done in Northeast funded by Trijicon. They didn’t have every shooter shoot all the guns. We had every shooter in our test shoot all four guns on exactly the same test. We randomized the order of guns so there would be no bias; 25% shot each gun first. We did multiple trials with each shooter to level out the data. It took about 15 minutes per shooter. We had total novices to IPSC grandmasters and career trainers, a broad spectrum that allowed us to break out different categories.

      Rehn continues, Our tests didn’t show the carry optics to be significantly better; many people struggled to find the dot. Some of the things that would have made red dot look better, we didn’t test, such as long range. We teach primarily defensive pistol; on a carry gun any accessory must not degrade skills from 3-10 yards, with the first shot probably the most important one. We did one shot at 5 yards and one at 10, all one-shot drills from low ready. Difficulty of getting first shot on target was a focus. We’re talking about life-safety equipment.

      He added, We used M&P COREs. The carry optics were Trijicon RMRs, with and without tall backup sights. We had several of these in different configurations, one of which was with the Streamlight light/laser unit under the barrel. All guns were the same as far as barrel, trigger, etc. Each shooter had 1.5 seconds to make their shots. Most with iron sights were able to do that regardless of skill level. We did it two-hand and also dominant hand only. We did three trials per test type, recording raw time and points, on IDPA targets, and scored like IPSC: five points for a center hit, then three points for the next zone out, then one point for the outer zone as in USPSA Production division. We didn’t study low light or shot-to-shot recovery or multiple targets or long range; there’s plenty of room there for further study.

      Recalls Karl, Roy Stedman, a Grandmaster shooter and R&D engineer, looked at the Steel Challenge years ago, w hich was noteworthy because shooters fire iron sight and red dot on similar courses and stages. There, longer range targets and basically one shot per target, he saw a 10-20% improvement with frame-mounted red dots. It shows for sure they do allow for improved shooting. That data does exist.

      How it works

      Karl explains, The number one problem people had was that when you have irons you’re adapting to what you see as gun comes up to target. You see sights and top of gun and target and adapt as gun is coming up. With the green projection laser, if you can find the laser on anything it’s very natural with target focus to drive the laser dot to the spot you want to hit. With slide mounted red dots, what happens is when you bring gun up you see no dot, there is no indicator to tell you where the dot is. You move gun and head to find it. It takes time. Many of the pioneers in this, like David Bowie, the gunsmith who worked on this many years ago, started putting BUIS (backup iron sights) on pistols. Getting irons on target lets you see the dot. Most who have worked with these advocate tall, suppressor-height irons.

      Karl Rehn demonstrates one of the several S&W M&P CORE pistols used in his research, this one mounting Trijicon RMR and suppressor-height BUIS.

      MAG staff instructor Ray Millican, retired Sergeant-Major from Special Forces, demonstrates rapid fire control with S&W M&P CORE and carry optics.

      He continued, Last summer I committed myself to earning Grandmaster in Carry Optics in USPSA. From May to August 2016 I shot nothing but Carry Optics. I made Grandmaster. What I learned was that for the most part I looked for the backup irons and found them essential. I consider BUIS mandatory.

      Karl said that perhaps the biggest thing that came out of the study was that so many shooters ran out of time trying to find the dot without iron sights. He says adamantly, Any skill you can’t do ten times out of ten on demand, you don’t own and can’t count on under stress. Some shooters claim, ‘If I can’t see the dot, I’ll just tube it,’ that is, line up the window with brown of target. I measured that deflection. With an RMR with just the window in the center of an IDPA target without the dot visible, at best at 5 yards your field of view through the window is 8. We found the window four times bigger than width of rear sight notch. So, here’s the deal: if you bring your carry optic up and can’t see the dot, it is physically impossible to put a shot in the A-zone unless you’re pointing high right and jerk low left. Beyond 2 or 3 yards, tubing won’t work. You have no way of knowing how far the sight is misaligned if you can’t see the dot."

      Breakdown of results

      The Rehn study had 118 participants, from 19 to 76 years old, male and female. He broke the participants into four categories of experience: (1) Novice, with no significant training or experience; (2) Had passed Texas Concealed Handgun License (CHL) shooting test at 90% or better; (3) Anyone with anything beyond CHL level, which according to a separate body of Karl’s research encompasses about 1% of those with carry permits; and (4) Instructors/high level shooters/those with at least 40 hours of training/B-class or higher competition shooters.

      Karl defined an acceptable outcome as how many got at least a 5 to 3 point hit. 94% did so with iron sights. With green laser it was 90%. Hybrid (with both RMR and BUIS) were 84% and 76%, respectively. The test saw a lot of people run out of time, or fire an unaimed shot when they knew time was almost gone, when working with the carry optic as their only index.

      One-hand versus two? One-handed didn’t really change the time for the first shot more than a few percentage points, Karl determined.

      He added, One thing we ended up doing, we took iron sight scores as the participants’ basic skill indicator. We moved some based on iron sight score to better sort them by skill level. He was able to determine different effects at different skill levels. Novices with irons averaged around 80%, with laser 70% plus, and less with red dots. Instructors did better with the slide-mounted red dot than with green laser or hybrid. Intermediate, post-CHL shot about as well with laser and hybrid with red dot. More experienced shooters struggled with the laser because they’re used to looking at sights, not for laser dot on target.

      Rehn frankly noted, A weakness of the test was that no one did a 200-round familiarization with the dot. Last summer, USPSA had Production and Carry Optics National Championships, many competitors using the same gun for both. This provided a fair amount of data since many stages were exactly the same. There were no dramatic changes in hit factors. Even at top shooter level, we didn’t see the 10-20% improvement we saw with frame mounted optics. At best, scores were 5-10% higher with carry optics. Don’t expect miracles. At best you’ll get 10%, in reality probably less than that.

      It seems logical that older shooters with older eyes would benefit most from carry optics, but Rehn’s study puts this hypothesis in question. He observed, We did not really see a significant improvement in that regard. We didn’t see older shooters any better or worse than younger. If you can’t focus at close distance, green laser works quite well, as good or better than trying to focus on slide mounted dot or irons. My advice to older shooters is to try the less expensive green laser first, which also still leaves your regular iron sights usable. I really think green lasers may be under-rated.

      Karl Rehn is a leader in research on effectiveness of carry optics on handguns.

      It should be noted that Rehn had nothing personal to prove with this study. As someone with zero fiscal interest in selling any sights or training specific to any type of optic, I tried to look at it with less bias than some, who make money from the proliferation of carry optics, he says. Lasers are carried by far more people than carry optics, which I for one think should be allowed in competitions where they are currently banned.

      This Glock 17 has been customized with Lone Wolf frame and other components, and Trijicon optic…

      …and its owner shoots it very well under pressure in her qualification run.

      Bottom line

      Some of Karl Rehn’s conclusions from the eighteen-month study? At 5 to 10 yards iron sights are still better for most people. The green laser is a very close second. If you’re going with carry optics, put backup irons on the pistol. Baseline your performance with similar drills yourself. Use drills that are hard for you to max at 100% to better measure relative improvement. You have to answer the question, ‘Do I actually shoot this better?,’ based on rational analysis and logic. If it works better for you, use it; if it doesn’t, don’t.

      Karl Rehn does not personally carry optical-sighted guns. He does like the Veridian light/green laser combo for carry. He shot the entire 2016 Rangemaster event using green laser exclusively, and came in 7th out of over 200 serious shooters despite a time-consuming malfunction. John Hoelschen has done a great deal of work with carry optics in low light in force on force, Rehn comments, and he likes the ability to look through the tube and watch people’s hands. He carries a gun with a red dot on it and shoots it very well.

      AIWB

      The following was written after taking a class from the man I consider the current guru of AIWB carry.

      AIWB is shooter shorthand for Appendix Inside Waistband Carry. As the name implies, the gun is holstered between body and trousers in the abdomen area, between navel and hip, on the wearer’s dominant hand side.

      Men have carried handguns in the appendix position, often tucked inside belt or sash without holsters, for as long as they’ve had handguns. In current times, this carry has always been popular in Latin America among good guys and bad alike, and most recently it has come into fashion in North America. One of the great modern instructors, Todd Louis Green, did much to popularize AIWB. Todd was taken from us in March of 2016 after a valiant decade-long battle with cancer, and though we lost him too soon, he left a large footprint. The same is true of the late Paul Gomez, another advocate of AIWB.

      AIWB advantages

      As we walk through daily life or even stand still, our hands are generally closer to our front midline than our hips, armpits, ankles or other holster locations. This can make the AIWB carry particularly fast, especially if both hands are free to accomplish the draw.

      The gun is very well protected against a rear grab, unless the opponent has the wearer in a bear hug from behind. It is also very defensible from a front grab.

      Many people, slender folks in particular, find the gun less likely to print in this position than on or behind the hip, especially when sitting or bending over.

      So long as seat belts don’t interfere, AIWB offers particularly good access when seated behind a steering wheel.

      Some people, depending on physical build, may find AIWB the most comfortable way to carry, particularly with a large handgun.

      AIWB disadvantages

      Since AIWB presumes a closed-front upper garment for concealment, a truly fast draw requires both hands – the support hand to rip the hem of the garment upward, and the firing hand to access the pistol.

      Carrying a gun with its business end pointed at genitalia or juncture of thigh and lower abdomen gives some people the absolute creeps.

      If the gun does discharge in an AIWB, results range from castration to death. The femoral artery is often in the line of fire.

      While comfortable for some, others may experience the opposite effect. Gun length and personal preference as to waistband level will be critical in determining whether or not the holstered gun digs painfully into thigh or crotch.

      Practice opportunities are somewhat restricted. AIWB carry is forbidden by some police departments, and has been banned by some top private instructors, such as Marty Hayes and Larry Vickers. AIWB is not allowed in IDPA, the concealed carry sport, at this writing, nor in PPC matches.

      An opposing view

      Marty Hayes, Director of the well-known firearms training school The Firearms Academy of Seattle, Inc., has some serious concerns about the safety of the practice of carrying firearms in this manner, and in fact has banned the practice at his training school. Hayes, a law school graduate, is well educated in the laws regarding civil liability, and believes that instructors who allow the practice are flirting with danger.

      From his law studies, he understands that for a plaintiff to collect damages in a lawsuit for negligence, they must prove that the defendant was negligent, and because of that negligence the plaintiff was injured. He believes that firearms instructors need to conduct their training courses in a reasonable manner, using tried and true gun handling techniques that have passed the muster of time in regards to safety.
