It hangs off of a belt, there is no reason to suspect that it would be determined to be anything but a "belt holster"... but time will tell.

I would not want to be in a position where my lawyer is having to explain my holster choice to 12 jurors in any of Texas' five most populated counties.

While it is not in the law, I would say that OCing without some sort of retention holster would be a very bad idea.

I OC at the ranch, and I have been using Safariland holsters for about 10 years now. The ALS system cannot be beat. Simple tab that you thumb naturally rests on, squeeze it back as you draw and out it comes. The SLS system is an added measure that is more secure.

Right now, I have an OD Green 6360 for my G21. It has both the SLS loop and the ALS thumb tab. Great for running around the ranch, on and off of tractors and such. Don't have to worry about that coming out unless I want it to. When I OC, it will be with at least an ALS model, and maybe with the Level III SLS/ALS.
