    There’s a video but it’s not a “draw to low ready”. It was a video showing the “draw to face shooting the motherfucker”. 🤷*♂️

    Good article. I saw a play button but no video preview (on an IPhone). I’m looking forward to being able to try one of the wilderness pocket holsters.

    If you look closely, his j-frame even gets momentarily hung up on his pocket, and he still gets a sub-second draw.

    Yes, I missed the "hard low ready" in the video. I just saw draw and shoot.

    @blues I have relegated the J frames to pocket only specifically for the technique/niche role that was highlighted in the article. Belt carry is reserved for the G26 or bigger.

    @Erick Gelhaus The video showed up for me as a blank spot in the article. When I hovered my cursor in the space, a video control bar appeared. It played normally when the play arrow was clicked.

    @Dagga Boy great article! Thanks for getting The Wilderness to design a pocket holster. Their ankle rig is my go to and am looking forward to seeing the pocket holster when it enters production. I do have a question. The pocket holster from both makers features a slot pocket added to the "body side". I get having a speed strip to top off to full capacity in the aftermath of a shooting. The inclusion of a decoy/throw down wad with cards is brilliant. How do you deploy this and where do you have it the plan? I'm thinking its primary role is in the counter-robbery situation where the attacker has made a demand?

    I think the principle of Hard Low Ready and hand on J frame pocket draw are much the same.
    Pistol is in a shooting grip in hand/ hands. Raise it up and face shoot the problem.
    One is concealed one hand, the other is two hand exposed. Both have the pistol indexed in a firing grip.
    Both eliminate the slowest most fumble prone part of the draw stroke, clearing cover and getting a shooting grip.

    @Erick Gelhaus now the video appears correctly in the article.

    And that's what the article is about. He's calling the technique the Covered Low Ready.
