“If you’re going to carry in a purse, you need to know two things: how to safely draw it without muzzling yourself, and since it will take a little bit of time to make the draw, you need to have situational awareness,” said Anthony. “It also depends on the style and quality of the purse you have, because you can have a three-step or a five-step draw. The quality of your Holster Purse System cannot be underestimated or ever taken for granted.”
