I got the 5.11 and ran with it today. The G29 was a snug fit, which is good, but it actually worked pretty well even with such a big gun. Just have to cinch it up it up tight. The straps are wide so they don't cut in to your sides. Seems to be a well thought out design.

Thanks for the replies. I will probably have to end up going with a fanny pack because I have to keep keys and of course a plastic card in there too.

Something that would keep the sweat off and keep the gun secure. My G29 is a brick so that complicates it more. I might have to go smaller but would prefer not to.

It's true there are many variables and complications both during, and after (such as lawsuits). If I were to narrow the hypothetical a bit more to say that it was clear there was an active shooter attacking innocents (and not just a shootout between bad guys) then I would like to think I would try t...

This is inspired from the other thread here recently about teachers being armed. But in any situation if you as a chl heard shots nearby and you had no one with you such as family to protect, would you seek out the source of the shots or go the other direction? You would of course be placing yoursel...

I would wear the holster if it's the kind you can't easily remove. I use a Remora no-clip and just take gun and holster out together. I agree with the others who say to keep the trigger protected.

But now bad guys with guns can come in because they won't be stopped by a 30.06 sign.

must be nice.

This just illustrates the stupidity of having a patchwork of places you can and can't carry. Every CHL holder will run in to this situation if he carries long enough. The 30.06 system implies that you know with absolute certainty where you will be going when you leave the house and that you will alw...

I've never seen so much excitement about a new bullet based on a single cheesy video. :roll: Visualize a DA playing that video and holding that bullet up in front of a jury. I don't want to defend that! I'd rather defend tried and true ammo used by police departments all over the country. "I u...

I think concealment makes a gun much more powerful as a weapon. If a bad guy wants to do harm he's going to shoot you first. But if he does not know who is armed and who isn't then you have a better chance to stop him. Plus you walk around with a $1000 item on your hip making yourself a target for c...

I've been stopped 3 times while carrying and all were positive. I'm in central Texas. Once was on the way back from the range and the officer even made some small talk about how my shooting went. Just have to remember to follow instructions and keep your hands visible on the wheel. Don't forget and ...

HOUSTON - A woman opened fire on a group of robbers at a local Denny's restaurant. At around 4 a.m. Thursday, a man who does not want to be identified, said his brother was robbed by six men with guns at a Denny's off the Gulf Freeway in southeast Houston. "I don't know if it was random or some...

I did have the phone out with my finger on the 9 but there is also the meantime if someone starts pumping bullets into the others car or pulls a knife. I don't want to get involved but don't want to drive away while someone is getting killed either. I observed and prepared, and it was enough this ti...

Saw an incident the other day where a guy in an SUV was driving like a jerk, cut some woman off hard (tires squealing) and then we all came to a stop light. Jerk in front, woman behind, me behind her, same lane. Woman gets out of the car, goes to the window of the jerk, says some words, probably not...
