So, I got my first retention holster for my Bersa Thunder 380. It is a Fobus and holds the gun quite well.

However, how do I draw from the holster? If I grab the gun and pull straight up the entire holster and my belt try to take my pants along with them. I know there is a method to properly draw from a retention holster, but haven't figured it out. If I use my weak hand to hold the holster down, the gun draws out nicely. Of course this is BAD technique as I then have the gun covering my weak arm as I draw.

So, how do I get the blasted thing out one-handed?
