LT, I'm surprised at you! Haven't you heard................

1. Shoulder holsters are uncomfortable.

2. They require constant attention to keep them in place.

3. They make you sweat.

4. They are slow to draw from. :sad:

5. Your arm can be pinned against your body when you try to draw. :shock:

6. Even if you do manage to draw, you will "cover" yourself (and everyone around) while doing so.

7. It is easy to "take away" your weapon because the butt of the gun is facing forward for the BG to grab.

8. You must always wear a jacket or coat to adequately cover them up.

9. They look "cool" on T.V. but really have few practical applications, (Helicopter pilots and FBI are about it). :smile:

10. And on and on and on................ ;-)


Seriously, your rig looks great. You have it adjusted perfectly.

On weak hand draws....lift the butt of the gun 90 degs. from vertical as you draw. This will allow you to rotate the barrel toward the ground as it clears the holster. You may have already figured that out.

Nice pics!
