IWB holster ?

[68kidd]

I currently carry in a Fobus paddle holster that leaves a print at times. Not really a big concern here in Indiana , but i travel to other states. I have been thinking about going with an IWB and have a couple questions. How are these (comfort wise) while sitting or driving ? Does the heat, humidity , perspiration effect the gun ? Thanks for any info.

They range from "forget it's there" to "kill me now" in terms of comfort. If you're carrying at the traditional 3-6pm, something like the Crossbreed Supertuck is VERY comfortable for many people. Many IWB holsters are cut to protect the gun from touching your nasty, sweaty body. Normal care will generally be plenty to protect the gun from humidity. I don't recommend keeping one of those little battery-powered dehumidifiers in your pants, but it's an option.

Do they vibrate????

If they did, I would have gone the other way on the recommendation.

After reading that post...can anyone recommend a good way to get coffee out of a keyboard?

I love my leather UBG IWB holster. I still have to wear a shirt over it, but it doesn't print. I hardly know it's there most of the time. After 10 hours or so, especially in this heat, it gets a little uncomfortable, but the weight of the gun is also a big factor!

I don't recommend using a propane torch, but it's an option.

There are several IWB clip ons that do the job. Wearing IWB at about 4:30 works well, but does cause issues sitting in a car for long periods. Need to have pants that can accomodate the extra waist. Don Hume JIT Slide is a small outside the belt holster. It rides high and conceals well under a shirt. Worn at 3:00 it's comfortable sitting in the car.

Check out the MTAC. By far the most comfortable IWB holster I've worn.

I really like my Remora clipless-IWB. It is very easy to take on and off, which is for IWB in the car. The car is probably the uncomfortable place to carry with any method, but IWB is especially bad. It is uncomfortable, and you have next to 0 access to your firearm should you need it. I like to take my Remora and kind of sit on the edge of it, leaving room enough to draw and for it to not slip, but not to the point where it is uncomfortable.

I tried a wide selection—Galco, Kholster, Fobus, Serpa, et. al. before settling on the High Noon ones. I have a tuckable for my Taurus 709 and G26. I have a High Noon IWB non-tuckable for my Taurus 24/7. Both are extremely comfortable—sitting in my Mustang or standing around Wal-Mart while waiting for someone to open the ammo cabinet. The weapons have not been discovered when I CC. Easy to conceal with a dress, T or sweatshirt.

I just bought a Desantis Sof-tuk, so far pretty comfortable, I'm kinda thick, and the bottom of the holster does dig into my side after about 6 hours, but that may be my size.

I will have to 2nd the MTAC holster, very comfortable at my 4:00 and I tend to wear mine for long periods of time, doesn't cause any issue or skin irritations.

I love my Crossbreed holsters! I have 4 of them now and wear them all the time. Drove all the way to Florida wearing it with no discomfort at all. I even wear it with shorts I carry a full size 40 S&W and it just disappears. Midway USA carries some in stock you'll have a few weeks wait to order direct but they are great on customer service I have bent a few belt clips and they send replacements with no questions asked. A true no BS warranty.

My experience is that orientation has a lot to do with carry comfort in the car.
I am a lefty, and I mostly carry IWB. I have found that if I just move the holster from my normal 7:00~8:00 position to more of a 9:00 position for any substantial time in the car, the comfort increases exponentially, since my body is not trying to "bend" the gun/holster to sit down, and i'm not pinning the gun/holster between myself and the seat.
For a very long trip, it goes in the console holster I have installed just for such occasions.

I've been wearing an IWB rig with my Glock G27 since 1997. My first one, which I still have, is a Blade-Tech, with a tuckable single point attachment that goes under the belt. It has an extension that keeps the pistol away from my sweaty body. I also have a Raven Concealment Phantom which I also wear. Both are concealable and don't print, unless I wear something tight. Both are sturdy and seem to work just fine.

I called Madison Outdoors (local gun store) and asked if they had any IWB holsters . They didn't have any , but he ordered a Super Tuk for me. I got it for the same price online and saved the shipping charge. I wore it driving out of town and most of the day. I love it and will purchase for future guns.

Easy to conceal with a dress...

1) I don't want to see how you conceal in a dress, or look in a dress, but to each their own.

2) If you're concealing in a dress, your quick draw must be amazing.
