Been struggling with IWB for more than 2 years now, listened to friends who told me to get a kydex like the ones they are using and to always go appendix. Being new to this I didn't realize that they have different guns, bigger body than I have, so in the end, it really didn't work out. Bought my 3rd holster and just now that I tried to tinker with it experiment a bit, found out that 2o'clock is the best position for me. PLUS!! This video that you just posted helped me a lot to refine it more so I can get better results. I know I still have a long way to go, but having subscribed to your channel gave me more access to knowledge and confidence that I can use to do better in this lifestyle.

I find pants that have the same ride height that I like and snugness and buy a few of them to have for a few years. I also find that stretchy material that is well fitted helps with comfort. Having some snugness helps distribute the pressure of the holster against the body.

After dorking around with concealed carry for years, I finally settled on a simple OWB pancake holster with a wide metal clip, and dremel/epoxy/screw-modified it for cross body. I carry a Glock 43 with a small pinky mag extension, and wear it at two o'clock x-body, with my shirts outside the belt. Excellent comfort and a much quicker draw than vertical IWB. The muzzle also points slightly away from by hip joint (and grundle). This looks like an excellent holster, and major props for that, but like all of 'em, it won't cant far enough outta the box. There's a market out there for OWB 60- to 80-degree cross body Kydex compacts.

Someone snagged that code surprisingly fast. We will have to hide it better next time.
Here’s my advice… Start with a firearm that’s actually made for concealed carry. If you don’t think a small, single-stack 9mm offers enough fire power, try something with a higher capacity such as a the Sig P365 or a similar firearm (there are plenty on the market now). Secondly, try a leather OWB pancake holster.
Do you make holsters for left handed people?
@tenicorusa
3 ай бұрын
Yes, everything we make is available in a left hand configuration.
Okay, maybe I am missing something, but how on earth is this supposed to work? You have detached the belt connection, so the holster is just held up by pressure from the belt or waistband and the friction of the body or materials it is held against. So if you are moving around a bunch, wont it just slip around and potentially fall down or out of your pants?
@tenicorusa

"Hand in pocket" start is twice as fast as any ccw belt rig, under a shirt. and the gun and rig looks just like a wallet in my pocket. The so called' hook designed into such pockets let the rig come out of my pocket every third draw, so I added the velcro . I had a seamstress enlarge the mouths of the pockets, cause I added a speed lever to the P938's thumb safety and I use the "high-thumb" grip. I can react to the timer's beep, draw to a retention position, one handed point shot and hit the chest at 5-6 ft, in .55 second. I can draw to an eye-level, 2-handed stand, and reliably hit the chest at 10 ft, all in .75 second. I side step as I do this, which less me beat the drop.

May I suggest,if doing a DIY wedge type situation to the muzzle end of your IWB holster for comfort &/or bridging the top of your gun back towards the body …Rather than using say ,a dr.schools gel insert ect,find an “adult shop “go in and feel all the dildos made with a softer gel type material. The double dong isle may be your best bet. The floppy longer ones that some people enjoy for various purposes are the softer ones you can find.hold it up to your holster and find a length that you think will work best for you.Cut one end off & start contouring the cut end to the back of your holster until you find the right thickness & overall shape that gives you the desired effect with your holster .Temporarily affix the piece of the adult toy to the holster with a few dabs of hot glue. Then try it on with multiple different pairs of jeans/pants that you like and will most likely be wearing when you are out and about. The ladies are looking. I advise going with “middle of the road “with girth of the toy that you choose & the amount of excess you choose to leave dangling below the muzzle end of your holster. subtle & intriguing is the effect your going for..go to large and you may draw too much attention from the wrong girls..The more conservative girls (the ones that most regular guys are looking for )that might be interested or intrigued would almost certainly be scared and be thinking of pain or discomfort if you go to large with your holster mod..Don’t think of this as false advertising or deception. If you wind up in a private situation with someone for the first time ,It’s totally up to you once the holster is removed..The right girl that knows anything about self defense/EDC & has a good sense of humor will not only understand but will most likely find it creative and the two of you can have a good laugh together and a funny story to share with your friends …..Close friends only,of course. I f your still reading & are the creative/DIY type,you can totally get the double duty of the holster attachment im describing..A quick sketch would be easier than a description. If you want more of a visual (FYI.. I don’t think there’s a holster or a gun involved though.?.? at least not in the case of Led Zeppelin anyway.& if you do care to look into it,very few of the front men from any popular band that might have embellished a little in order to boost their sex symbol rock star image to ,in turn,help boost the female fan base ,while simultaneously boosting album sales that has been asked about any possible “embellishments”by the very few reporters who were brave enough to actually ask those types of questions,on camera,during interviews,will admit it. )while you are already here on YT,look for a video of Led Zeppelin (its an older band from the 70s for some of the younger guys out there…)performing.find a live concert in daylight hours.that may be the most self explanatory. The lead singer tends to exaggerate the whole thing when performing one particular song.. I can’t think of the title of the song right now(it was one of that particular bands biggest hits so it should pop right up)but pay particular attention to the lead singer during the part of the performance where the lyrics “squeeze my lemon and let the juice run down my leg “are sung..You might have to check out a couple different videos of different concerts but the artist from Zeppelin,Jimmy Paige ,at times,was a prime example of the opposite of subtle with that widely used “technique”. He has in fact admitted to embellishment & explained in detail…years after the fact. The band manager/promoter was usually the one that made the suggestion in the first place. He (Jimmy Paige)kept it simple.If I remember correctly he said it was simply a rolled up tube sock positioned just so. I a hetro rock fan,but you can’t help but notice. Anyhow,excuse the tangents & long explanation & any unintentional puns…holsters /mods/comfort/relationships(I suppose.?.You people reading this…how ever & what ever you carry ,be safe and enjoy.

Your type puts a whole new meaning to 'concealed carry'!
Or just make your ien holsters. Kydex is easy to work with and cheep.
Or just get an Alien Gear Shapeshift 4.0 IWB holster for your specific gun and carry at the 4 o'clock position. Comfortable, minimual printing, secure . . . done. You can wear it at the genital position if you are a girl and have a flat stomach. Don't bother with the carry pack like I did. You'll just have to buy another shell for $45 to be able to use both the OWB and IWB conveniently.
The older I get the more I've turned on holsters to the point that I just go with clips now. I don't believe there is any such thing as a "comfortable holster." The fact that a holster maker made a video about a parlor trick to increase the comfort of their holsters only buttresses my opinion.
