General Safety Guidelines

Specific Safety Precautions for Use
- Avoid Printing: The Pocket Protector is designed to conceal your firearm. Ensure that the holster is positioned correctly to prevent the outline of the firearm from being visible through your clothing.
- OneHanded Release: Practice drawing your firearm from the holster in a safe environment. Ensure you can perform the action smoothly without the holster coming out of your pocket.
