Can you draw your gun one-handed? Should you be able to?

That's going to depend on them and their lifestyle; someone who has small children or a spouse who doesn't carry a defensive weapon will likely need to practice more often than someone who doesn't, while someone who works as an executive protection specialist will need to do so far more than even the guy with the kids. ...The satchel or purse often wants to move away from the hand which is trying to get to the gun unless it's restrained by the off hand; practicing ways (and perhaps carry positions) where you can get to the gun while the off hand is preoccupied needs to be part of your regimen. ...Before settling on a carry method, try drawing both two-handed and one-handed; if there's a big difference in the time it takes, I submit that you need to think about what it means to your ability to respond to a sudden attack where lethal force is necessary.
