What position do you carry IWB?

[gunnut2u]

Same AS out west ;
The only comfortable IWB that I have found is 4 o'clock, strongside, but with a reverse carry. The gun butt points forward. Besides being more comfortable when setting, it also seems to keep the butt closer to my body promoting better concealment.

I've heard it called "calvary" carry. Also have read plenty of criticism of the style. But if I feel the need to go IWB its how I roll.

Has anyone had a problem carrying a 19/66 IWB due to the adjustable sights? I have often thought about a 2.5" K Frame IWB but I wonder whether those sights would stick you..

You would want some type of body shield to protect you from the sights and hammer spur (provided the hammer isn't bobbed). It stands to reason that bobbed hammer, fixed sighted revolvers work very well for appendix carry.

I guess it would be called 3:30, it's just behind the point of the hip, both IWB and OWB.

I am right handed and I carry at 6:00 in a left handed IWB neoprene Uncle Mikes. My main carry for the past year or so is a M65 3". But even back when I carried bottom feeders I carried the same way. I carried everything from 1911's to 4" N K Frames at the 6.

The only gun i can carry iwb with ease is my g22,every thing else with a hammer hurts after a while.Ever have to iwb a 4 inch L-frame revolver,it can be done but(no pun)it's almost like having a third leg.

Btw i'm a lefty so i carry about the 8:30,it's the same for my owb.

I've carried a 3" 19 on a ClipDraw in the appendix position. No problem with the sights but i've "stuck" myself with the other end and it wasn't pleasant.

I carry at the 3ish position, It is just more comfortable for me.

1530 or 1600 for autoloader
in the pocket for j-frame

Behind the right hip--at my age I cannot remember what time it is.

Today a 625-10 in a Hume H 721 OT. Tonight a 325PD in a Galco IWB. Neither gun is ever lonely )

I carry my Colt Agent at 3 o'clock in a Barsony soft moisture proof IWB holster.

7:30 for my IWB

 

[ladder13]

About 1:30 AM.

 

[photoman]

642 at 1:00 works well...am or pm doesn't really matter as you should always carry.

1:00,IWB,S&W 37-2,DeSantis Nemesis,cut down,no clip

I am a 4 o'clock guy on everything, hate stuff digging into my hip bone at 3. I can't get comfortable at 1-2, and I am not carrying a spare yet (well maybe a lil)...

 

[Deltaboy]

I go between 3-4 strong side depending on the pants I am wearing and how the belt loops work out. Plus what I am going to be doing. Walking 3 o'clock. Driving between 3:30-4 depending on what I am carrying.

I am surprised that no one carries "Dr. Pepper style" ... 10:00, 2:00, and 4:00. I carried my Officer's Model at 4:00 until recently. Switched to 3:00 a few weeks ago and it is much more comfortable for me. Might have something to do with the spare tire.

Always carried at 4 until the last couple of years. Now arthritis in my shoulder has forced a change to 3.

 

[cmort666]

3:00-4:00, depending upon the gun and what I'm wearing. The 3" Model 65 works best at 4:00.
