Carrying a firearm in a crossbody concealed carry (CCW) purse offers both style and security. But proper setup is crucial to ensure quick access and safety. In this guide, we’ll walk you through setting up your CCW purse for an optimal draw—featuring the Sofia x Zendira bag in action.
🎯 Why Choose a Crossbody CCW Purse?
Crossbody CCW purses are favored for their:
-
Enhanced Security – Worn across the body, they’re harder to snatch than shoulder bags
-
Balanced Weight Distribution – Reduces fatigue over long wear
-
Quick Access – Designed compartments help improve draw speed
These features make crossbody CCW purses the go-to for women who want style and security.
🛠️ How to Set Up Your Concealed Carry Purse
Step 1: Choose a Purpose-Built Bag
Start with a concealed carry purse that’s built for safety and access—like the Sofia x Zendira. It features a dedicated compartment with magnetic closure, built-in support for holsters, and cut-resistant straps.
Step 2: Use a Velcro-Backed Holster
Insert a holster that anchors securely inside the concealed carry compartment. This keeps your firearm positioned for consistent draw.
Step 3: Adjust the Strap
Set your strap length so the bag sits snug across your body—at a height where your hand naturally rests near the magnetic opening.
Step 4: Practice Drawing
Use dry fire drills to build muscle memory. The more you practice with the bag positioned properly, the faster and smoother your draw will become.
🔐 Safety Reminders
-
Always carry with a holster—never loose in the bag
-
Keep your trigger protected at all times
-
Make sure the firearm compartment is secure from kids or strangers
-
Regularly inspect your bag and holster for wear
