I just looked at the Kusiak. How is the retention on yours? I worry that leather may stretch over time versus kydex. I sure do like the little extra Ammo pouch they have listed. Prices seem reasonable too. I've been struggling with a way to carry extra rounds. My speed loaders don't seem to be very conducive to carrying on body without a strange bulge.

Yes, I ordered two.

The also work better for me when I wear a nylon belt with shorts...the other clips don't wanna stay fastened to a nylon belt.

I just ordered some! Thanks for the tip!

I just received my plastic on this past Saturday, so naturally I planned a day of blissful concealed carry on Sunday. I had been carrying around the house and researching for a month in preparation. I noticed that several people here mentioned they felt very self conscious on their first carry and that is no lie. I don't think it mattered how physically prepared I was, I still mentally kept thinking "am I printing?" "don't adjust your shirt." "walk normally." I felt pretty much like a dork, but I was a happy dork. I went to Target and Old Navy and then had an appointment at the indoor gun range at Bass Pro. It was very nice to be able to just walk in and not have to check my gun at the door or with the range master before entering the range. Awesome.

I chose to wear my Ava holster (by Looper) with my "Miss Be Havin'" belt (also by Looper), and I carry a Ruger LCR. I thought I was having some printing issues with this set up but my husband assured me he could not tell I was carrying. I feel like the LCR needs to be deeper inside my waistband. I have adjusted the cant of the Ava holster to the deepest, and I think I need to poke some more holes to make it a more extreme cant (oh where did I put that leather punch???). I would like to hear recommendations on deeper carry IWB holsters. I am a holster junkie.
