Need a mentor.

So I am new to the CCW life and am really needing some help. Just a little back story... I am originally from SD California and have been around guns before. Moved to the Dallas TX area about 4 yrs ago and really started getting into shooting and really wanted to get my LTC. Finally got my LTC about a month ago but could really use some help in learning more about the CCW life. I have watched a lot of videos on Youtube and listened to a bunch of podcast about concealed carry but feel that it is not the right way to learn about CCW. I have general knowledge about carry positions and holsters and belts just from what I have researched but would really like to find someone that has been doing if for a long time and has hands on experience actually carrying every day. I (like most people) do not just have a bunch of money lying around to buy a bunch of holsters and gun belts to really find out what is "best" for me. I am hoping that there is someone in the area that would be willing to help me out. I am open to any info that people want to post here but feel that someone that I could meet irl would maybe be more beneficial to start with. Also I am 5'4'' and about 150lbs. I know build type has quite a bit to do with it since I always go into gun shops and ask question and the people behind the counter always say "should be no problem to carry a G19 with a TL-R1 in the appendix position. I have been doing for years" when they are 6' plus.... anyways any help would be great. via /r/CCW https://ift.tt/2LTRan6
