The Surreptitious Draw: A Neglected Skill
I have long been a student of MAXIMIZING speed and efficency with weapons by MINIMIZING unncecessary body movement.
This is why I am a proponent of AIWB carry (Appendix Inside the Waistband) for both handgun and fixed blade knife.
“To draw the gun discreetly, focus on minimizing movement in the elbows and shoulders, as these movements clearly alert anyone who is watching that you are reaching for a weapon. Again, the AIWB carry position offers an advantage here as you can minimize the movement in your shoulders and elbows.”
