Concealment holsters:

We spent this morning with my old friend Lou Alessi, famous holster maker in Buffalo, NY. His leather work is superb, as usual.

He confirms what many other holster makers have told me: that a large percentage of working police officers are now carrying concealed ALL THE TIME, having NEVER have done it before in their careers. He is presently supplying these officers with superlative concealment holsters. Since last September, my good friend, Dave Grossman, has been urging all police officers to carry a gun at all times, on duty and off, particularly entreating those who have had a casual attitude about the subject up until now. He has apparently been successful. Good show, Dave! Great job as always, Lou!
