Comp-Tac Victory Gear Is Just The Ticket
 
             
   
  The butt-forward cant of the Comp-Tac Minotaur and Comp-Tac Beltfeed magazine
pouch system have both become Clint’s favorites.
 
                     
 

The proper concealment of the handgun is a key salient point in the application of handguns to personal defense as much as personal awareness and tactics. This point of surprise created by proper concealment gives the carrier the ability to respond to a threat if they choose, rather than be subjected to the whims of an attacker. Bluntly, if the threat had known who they selected to confront was armed, there probably would have been some reservations or no confrontation to start with.

It is one thing to rob someone when all goes the threat’s way. It is another thing when the person being robbed draws a gun and decides to fight back. I do not think I would shoot over my wallet or my car being stolen, but I would shoot to defend my family or myself. Knowing I can’t outdraw a gun already pointed at me puts a certain spin on the issue many have not considered. That said, if it appeared to being turning ugly, I would do what I could and must to defend my family and myself.
