Paging Mr. Hoshneer...

[mwlabel]

Thank you.. On both accounts. One for the code and the other for bringing up something I had hoped was long buried and forgotten about. Lol.

I have been successfully thwarting him.

...

You actually did a damn good job. I recall SOMEBODY saying they'd pick a new holster and never did.

Time to take over again.

The Blade Tech is definitely my favorite but the Comp-Tac looks very nice as well. I have always used universal holsters in the past so I really think your judgement is better than mine. The things I want is protection for my gun so I cant scratch it up too bad and just comfort for everyday carry. I think anything would probably be better than what I use sometimes. The ideal situation though is that you could use your expertise to guide me in this purchase and I can save up some scratch to get it myself. Although somehow I don't know if I can get away with that...

I do like the XDM holster it came with but it doesn't feel as secure as I would like it too. It also doesn't offer much protection for my firearm.

Take a look at the Comp-Tac Infidel. Very nice holster, and meets your needs. Plus, it's on sale today. But it's IWB.

 

[Hoshneer]

I thought about IWB but have never owned one. The only thing that concerned me was that I am a bigger guy. I wasn't sure if it would press hard on my side or not. You a fan of IWB?

Big is fine, and often good. Obese is when it becomes difficult.

I am strictly IWB for carry. I feel OWB offers more challenges than perceived benefits. Others may disagree.

I'm game. Looks like it will conceal well. I knew you would know more than I would.

Gonna go with the belt clip version, unless you'd prefer the soft loops or tuck-your-shirt-in option.

Huge noob question here as i'm not hugely into all the different tech, but how would one access their fire arm if you are carrying inside your waste band? If you have jeans and a belt on, how would you draw your weapon if God forbid you had to?

The belt holds the holster. The holster holds the gun.

In the picture is a JM Custom Kydex AIWB holster (magnificent product, by the way). You can see exactly how the gun sits. You simply add a layer of clothing over the top... t-shirt, sweatshirt, whatever. Should you have to draw your gun, you simply clear the cover garment and proceed with the draw-stroke.

Ok that makes a lot more sense than what I was picturing in my head haha reaching down your pant leg to draw your gun

Yes that's fine. I don't even know how to thank you enough man. That's way above and beyond.

No bullshit, I am pretty excited...

Tight work! I've used infidels in my carry rotation since they came out around 07. Great holsters. IWB all day as well. Congrats Rex!

 

[Hoshneer]

I will be posting pics as soon as I get it. Thanks again.
