By the way, have you tried the Flashbang bra holster yet? Thoughts?

@thejoyfulpalmers

not yet, but soon!

Falia, I'm a small woman looking for serious information to help me make the best choice possible in getting my first gun. You were just what I needed. You gave me so much information to think about and consider. I'll make a far better decision in the end because of your work. Thank you so much for making this video.

[LeonBelmont1000]

I dont think revolvers are THAT slow to reload if you use a speed loader ;o

[TheBigyoc]

Wow can't believe this is a year old already!

Very informative, very thorough. Thanks for doing this.

And I did not feel the video was "too long", you simply covered a lot of information..

Then leaves, simple as that.

Theres no need for you to leave a nasty comment, simply click the red X in the top right of your screen and move on.

I've never owned a gun before and I'm fairly nervous about considering getting one, but after escaping an attempted sexual assault I am exploring my options. Thank you so much for these videos.

Great review thanks !

I came upon this video and the concealed carry holsters for women, while doing research for the .380 I'm planning to get. I love the way you explain and demonstrate the different weapons. On this video, unlike the other ungrateful comment I saw, I am also thankful you had the video in sections and the time the topic appeared.
