    J Frame Snub Owners: What is your favorite EDC Holster?

    Makes me wonder - if cloth friction tape might stick to the cloth of the pocket and hinder grabbing the gun. And the relative utility of cloth tape, vinyl electrical tape, and rubber electrical tape.

    Color matters! When it comes to EDC / CCW leather belts, holsters and pouches - learned my lessons!

    "my black basket-weave holster burned me as a Cop" So you should wear the color & style that your local LE Dept. uses, so if it peeks out, the viewer might just think you are one, and not raise a fuss. Having a bright "fashion" color or better, a patterned design, peek out from under your...

    Front pocket /appendix holster for J frame, replace Uncle Mike's sidekick size 4 ?

    Any J frame shooting tips?

    J frames MUST be DAO since the design basis is for use at grappling distance. Need to be able to shoot from underneath a coat or in a pocket or purse, and not get hung up on clothing when doing a contact shot. Contact distance shooting also involves your hand being right up against your own...
