I have carried a Rossi SS .38 Snub nosed in an ankle holster. It is a little heavy to me but not too bad in the summer. I think one of the "air lights" might be good for this or a small automatic. You will not walk funny that way.bkblaw84 wrote:Have you ever carried on the ankle before? It can be limiting depending on what type of shoe / pant you are wearing. I have had better success (at least around the house) with something ITWB, especially if you are planning on carrying a smaller gun.
It is a little embarrasing when the whole think comes undone and you pistol slides across the floor though. You must check the velcro often with the heavier guns. Again the smaller autos should work better.
Remember too that unless you are in the car or sitting at a restaurant etc. it will be a big "reach" to get to your gun. I used this method only as a backup or no other choice carry.
The FAG bag is the best all around way for me. "Fast Action Gun Bag" is pretty good for most day to day operations. You can take it off and leave it on the seat by you in the car, ride your bike, go to the mall etc. For dressier events like weddings, theater and dinner out in the summer, I used the Kramer undershirt holster however there are several types out there now. You can do a "superman" and rip open the shirt to get to the gun in a surprize situation or just un button a few if the the "need" comes over you. It usually takes a hug to notice the gun.
I was at Pruitt's Guns the other day and a man was wearing a Keltec .380 with a belt clip tucked in his waist. When he showed it to me I couldn't see it and I was looking right at it. I thought the clip was a pocket knife! He could have carried with or without a jacket, in shorts or wearing a tshirt with that rig.
Have fun. Think I'll log in again to see if anything has happend in the last 5 minutes!
