OK, you've decided to carry a handgun because you get it. Good. Because of the law and common sense, you're going to carry it concealed. Concealment holsters, knife sheaths, dog collars and leashes are what I do. Leather holsters are what I recommend. I've been carrying in military, police and bodyguard work since 1969 and a .45 auto is somewhere on my person as I type this. Gun holsters are survival gear. Don't buy them at yard sales. I've tried every mode of carry known to man and leather is what works best, Period. SEALS might need to carry it in something waterproof but you don't. I have been in the water once (briefly) and then my leather holster dried out and it continued its job until retirement. I've been in six riots. I've had to take felons to the ground at least a hundred times. Three of these times, it was a fight for my gun. I won all the fights and I'm happy to report all attempted gun-grabs failed miserably. I have had guns fall out of holsters three times. All were commercially made "fit em all" specials. One was nylon, the other two were due to poor design. It was a rig made famous by Don Johnson on Miami Vice. |
