    Holsters forward or reverse canted?

    Interesting Thanks for the lesson on holsters and thumb breaks. So is this just a thing you do for revolvers? Because I to have one that I plan to find a holster for eventually, but right now I am more concerned with holstering my .40SW and sub compact 9mm. Do they have holsters with thumb...

    Holsters forward or reverse canted?

    Yes feralmerril, that is the position I am referring to, reverse cant. I never imagined so much thought would be required to decide how to holster my gun. I just ordered a belly band that will allow me to hold the gun at that same position at my 2 o clock. I am assuming that it will also...

    Holsters forward or reverse canted?

    Nice, I am trying to decide which one to order right now. There are several on Amazon, not sure if they are all basically the same, or if they have huge differences. I am looking for something that would enable me to keep it at either 10 or 2 o clock, at least at first. I'd just much rather...

    Holsters forward or reverse canted?

    Thanks for all the helpful info Just out of curiosity, are those "belly band" holsters worth anything? I have read mixed reviews. I'm a slim guy I have a 30 - 32 inch waist. I figured I could start with that, I just don't know how well it would secure the gun to my waist. I just honestly...

    Holsters forward or reverse canted?

    Thanks And honestly, as someone pointed out, I have no idea if I would lean more towards cross drawing or dominant hand drawing, but I guess the main concern I have is that no matter what position I am in (standing, walking, sitting in a chair or booth, driving), that I am comfortable. I am...

    Holsters forward or reverse canted?

    Just out of curiosity, I have narrowed my holster search down to the one I think I am going to get. I have never carried a gun concealed, never carried a holster, and honestly don't know what factors to take into consideration. I am given a choice of whether or not I want the holster to be...

    Question about TEXAS CHL's

    There have been 2 instances where if I would have been in a place 15 minutes earlier or 15 minutes later, I would have been a witness to, a victim of, or an innocent bystander caught up in a murder or attempted murder. One of these instances was in the parking lot of my apartments. Funny you...

    Question about TEXAS CHL's

    Well darn that just ruins my day! I had a week full of anti aircraft and hand grenade fun planned for my vacation! Totally kidding....Yeah I know my fears are unjustified, it just comes from knowing that I want to exercise my rights, but being inexperienced in doing that. I never honestly...

    Question about TEXAS CHL's

    Hello Everyone, I am new to this forum, I am a new gun owner, and have bought more than one gun in the last few months. I will admit I may have bought them out of uncertainty, but since then I have honestly decided that I find shooting to be VERY fun. Just in general. Just expensive, otherwise...

    The need to change the 2nd

    Thomas Jefferson Worded it Perfectly And we all know what quote I'm referring to. I highly doubt they will actually pull this off, at least not without creating a full out rev. there is just too much opposition. And when I say opposition I don't mean "what's written on paper", I mean PEOPLE...

    First and Foremost, My name ain't Chris

    Ha! I totally understand. And nope, not Sue either. Close though lol. Well I have a pretty close eye on several S&W's so I'm pretty sure I'll have alot to say about them once I get them.

    First and Foremost, My name ain't Chris

    Just like the way it sounds. It makes a good screen name. I'm a southern American born in TX, raised in Louisiana and am now back to my home, which is Texas. Born here and will die here. I live smack in the middle of one of the largest urban areas of the nation, but my roots and heart...

    The need to change the 2nd

    No need to touch the 2nd Amendment Just a need to get these progressive liberals out of our driver seat. Guns have been a fact of life many centuries before we were put on this earth. It is impossible to defend yourself against armed criminals with anything but a gun. These people in the...
