Concealed Carry Holster

[rmr1923]

I wouldn't ever use a 6 o'clock holster, pocket holster, or any kind of holster with a "flap," because by the time you dig it out, you'll be dead. Don't "follow the crowd" and get an IWB holster just because "that's what everybody uses." Get what works for you. Jeez, I see some guys carrying big Glocks or full size 1911's IWB. I can't imagine sitting through a 3 hour movie like that. I carry my P238 in a neat little OWB holster on the belt (using the slots, not the clip), where it's extremely comfortable - I forget I'm wearing it, actually - and I can grab it in a hurry if I need to. I can have it out and get the first shot off in less than .75 seconds. Pics at:

maybe it's due to my body size/shape (5'11" 175 lbs) but i've found it real difficult to easily conceal a handgun OWB. i've tried a couple different OWB holsters but they just didn't work for me. i carry an M&P 40c, my crossbreed-style holster seems to work best. it's comfortable and easy to access, and holds the gun closer to my body than any other OWB rig i've tried out. i guess it just comes down to personal preference, i know some larger guys that carry OWB and don't find it as difficult as i do to keep their handguns concealed.
