Need a holsterA handgun holster is a device used to hold, or restrict the undesired movement of a handgun, most commonly in a location where it can be easily withdrawn for immediate use.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holster for my plinking pistol to be allowed to take it a campground due to open carry laws.
