InSights Instructor Mike Warsocki in the news!
That is why Terri was one of a handful of student who recently completed a weekend-long defensive handgun training course hosted by the West Shore Sportsmen’s Association in Fairview Township, York County.

Thus, most operators have no context for proper selection of a holster.
