A firearms writer has released a follow-up piece on accessing a holstered pistol when the dominant arm is injured. The discussion builds on earlier coverage of one-handed 1911 handling and notes that most civilian carriers and uniformed officers keep their guns on the strong-side hip.

Interviews with wounded officers in the early 1970s showed the need for access from both the front and the rear of the body. People whose build, clothing or gear limits reach are told a second gun placed for the opposite hand may be required. All such practice occurs only with confirmed-empty or dummy firearms.
