In this video, we talk about the main carry positions, including appendix, strong side, IWB, and OWB. We'll also take a look at some holster options that are ideal for each position, including models from CrossBreed, Blackpoint Tactical, and Galco. Finally, we'll show how these carry positions work in the field with the help of the Taurus GX4 TORO
