In almost every part of the world I have been, there is an immediate interest into who you are and what you are doing when someone learns you are a bodyguard. Any bit of time in this field will be accompanied with the experience of being asked these questions. As with most things, it is best to be proactive; develop responses to these stupid questions to avoid being caught off guard and getting frustrated.

KnifeUp provides a law guide for all 50 states so you can read about each state’s knife laws so you can know what size and method of carry is legal in any state.
Knowing where you can carry and what those particular laws dictate, especially when compared to your home state, is critical information for any law abiding concealed carry practitioner. The link below includes a clickable map on concealed carry laws by state.
There is always a lot of questions when it comes to flying with a firearm and how to ensure compliance when doing so. Below is the all of the information you will need in order to travel with a firearm, and successfully check a gun within TSA’s rules and regulations.
In our security profession that is of most concern to professionals is whether a product is worth its value. We’ve all had semi reliable products that we’ve purchased, but Precision takes it to a higher level in putting together a holster that will last.
Using the holster on a daily basis with twists, turns and use, the holster is extremely comfortable to wear inside your 5.11 tac pants. The 2 hooks are placed comfortably over your belt and the holster itself does not move around even when jogging.
On my detail, I am dressed in tac pants and a collared shirt out, with the holster concealed. Ive had issues before being 6’7 and dealing with a long shirt and the issue of the weapon being visible. Thankfully, there has never been an issue and sometimes I forget Im even wearing it since the weight is proportional.
If your in the market for a holster and looking for something that will last, get a good bang for your buck, and comfortable, choose Precision Holster for your next purchase.”

Communicating is an essential part of working in any team, especially so in protective services where disseminating critical information immediately can mean the difference of a successful evacuation or a critical loss event. Online and in person, I routinely observe questions about radios and other gear, as most people know me as a recovering 12-stepper when it comes to gear. I have the personality ‘flaw’ that requires me to know how everything works and I am not satisfied or even comfortable in using something until I do. I was the kid who took everything apart, unfortunately having to put some of them back on the Christmas list next year…those of you like me know what I mean.
Providing protective services requires a mind set that differs dramatically from the norm. This line of work demands a forward-thinking anticipation of what might occur and developing solutions on how to mitigate those risks. How does this differ from the norm? Half of the people on this planet are categorized into below average intelligence. Humor aside, this is not a knuckle dragger’s profession.

The most important component of effectively preparing for an Active Shooter scenario is developing logical options to an illogical problem; there is no one right answer and many options are required as the circumstances are never the same. As with any solution to a variable problem, a cookie cutter response is not going to be ideal and while the ‘devil is in the details,’ the ‘angel is in the concept.’
