    How do you NOT shoot yourself w/ CCW?

    Reholster S-L-O-W-L-Y... You may need to draw quickly but you never need to reholster quickly. Do it slowly, smoothly and STOP if you feel any resistance!!! Don't force the weapon back in the holster (unless you like permanent creases in your legs/pants!) Mark
