Re: First week of carry with my new CHL

Dangerous holster.

When I was new to concealed carry, I wore a DeSantis "Tuck This" holster that has the same adjustable cant mechanism. That adjustable cant mechanism is not robust enough, and will eventually loosen or fail (it only takes one screw to loosen). When that happens, you can find the front of your pistol rotating down into your pants. I had it drop my gun down the front of my pants. Since that time, I have heard of many others on internet forums sharing the same problem with this holster.

I am also aware of reading at least one case where the guy went to grab at his handgun as it was rotating around and then falling down his pants. He apparently grabbed enough of the trigger through his pants, caused a negligent discharge, and shot himself.

Run away from this holster.
Just saw this response to my post. Thank you for the update. I have ordered a Crossbreed holster but it will be a few weeks before it arrives.

Picked up a new Gen4 Glock 27 with mag extensions and a Tuck This II holster from De Santis this morning and was out the door at GT Dist (Austin) for just a tick under $500. Now having said that, it would have been real easy to go over $1000 too.
