Wednesday I had a little mishap that resulted in a shoulder injury. Right now I cannot draw or shoot with my right hand.
Fortunately, I know I can draw, shoot, reload, and clear malfunctions with just my left hand because I've already done all of those things. I also already have gear for left handed use. When I drove home Wednesday I didn't have to think about how I would work around my injury until I heal because I was already using the workaround.
Prepare for these things before you need it. You have no idea when you might sustain an injury that compromises your dominant hand. Once you're hurt, ordering a left handed holster is a little too late. Learning how to manipulate your firearm with just your left hand after the injury is a little too late.
