The barrel is up at your chest and horizontal it looks like. She would draw by grabbing the grip and pulling the weapon down which would likely cause the muzzle to tilt upward when drawing.

Can't imagine it's the most comfortable method of carry for the average woman, either. Great for the movies, I'm sure, but unless you're CCing in lingerie, it doesn't seem necessary.
It is a downward draw. Holster pinches the pistol holding it in place. Basically an upside down U, or a C turned down.
well, that's different than I imagined. I'd be concerned with retention, but of course I've already made up my mind. If my wife wanted one... I guess I'd let her model it for me :mrgreen: but I know her well enough to know that she would not like it, and neither do I.

Re: MI: Woman dies from ND while looking down and adjusting bra holster

they author tells you exactly what they want you to know.

This woman carried a gun in her bra, and she accidently shot herself in the eye and died. I'm surprised that they even mentioned the caliber, since most people don't know the difference between a .22 LR and a 12 gauge.

It's a tragic story, and the intended takeaway is that guns kill people.

The bra clip holster just seems like a bad idea all around to me. I would much rather my wife wear a belly band, and I think that she will agree.
