My holster arrived!

It's a blade-tech UCH.

I'll take a picture of it soon, the above picture is just a stock photo from their website.

It took about 3 weeks to make it and send it to me. Last week I called them to check on the order status. The woman who answered the phone said it would be another 4-6 weeks! :shock:
I called back the next day to talk with the person who took my order. I reminded her that she quoted me 2-3 weeks and that had I known it was going to be 6-9 weeks I would have ordered from another company. She called me back and said they would ship last Friday. :D

My first impressions are positive. I got it before my wife got home so I tucked it and my pistol in my pants with the same clothes I wore to work. I walked around with it and did normal household stuff all evening. Finally after about 3 hours, I asked my wife if she noticed anything unusual about me. She got a very suspicious look then started laughing. I thought she had it, but this is what she said.

'you're not wearing any underwear are you?!'

LOL :lol:

Well, that's not exactly what I meant!

That's when I showed her the pistol. Apparently it conceals pretty well!

Here's the pictures of my pistol/holster combination.

This is my first holster for my first pistol...thus, I'm very new to this. I've carried it around the house when I get off work just to see how the bulk and weight affects me. I'm a pretty big guy (6'1" 235) so the weight doesn't bother me at all, I suppose my size also allows me to get away with concealing a bigger gun that smaller people might not be able to hide. I will have to get used to protecting my right side as well as the restrictions to what or how I can and can't reach for, bend over for stuff etc...

I have learned one thing though...you must wear an undershirt with an IWB holster! If that thing is touching my skin, I sweat...maybe I should have gone with the stainless p345!
