    Waiting for delivery of a Crossbreed Supertuck. Kind of forced into it because it's one of a few holster manufacturers who makes FNX holsters.

    Supposed to be comfy, we'll have to see.

    Raven Concealment or Milt Sparks, on a 1.5" bull hide belt. My next belt will be from A&G, heard good things.

    The construction quality of Milt Sparks leather is the best I've seen.

    Love both Raven and Crossbreed. Raven are for my Glocks, and crossbreed is for my XD sub compact.

    Pending on the where I carry and the firearm of choice, and the weather condition I use different set up.

    I use either G17 or G19 on OWB with Raven. The pancake design makes large frame pistol quite conceal-able with an open front shirt. This is the set up on a Sunday if I walk around to do my shopping and stuff.

    If its a working day that I had to get in and out the truck a lot, Crossbreed IWD is my choose. The leather backing piece made it extremely conformable even with my beer gut.
    I sweat a lot, if I am gonna be outside when there is no AC, I do find sweat get trap by the leather and I will have go home and dry it up.... sorry for the details but that's why I would use OWB on a hot day w/o AC.

    I am using the same holsters for IDPA events, so leather is out of question.

    A good gun belt makes a HUGE difference. Dress belts is for cell phones. I am a fan of 5.11 products. Their belts are solid, and some are affordable.

    Tact belts are the best, but easier to be spot these days with front open shirts. If I saw someone with these belts, most likely they are carrying! which kinda took away the conceal carrying idea. I am transitioning to cow hide belts now to avoid unwanted attention.

    Never thought of that issue.

    The proliferation of 5.11 pants, "operator" shirts, and tac-this, tac-that, big folders clipped to the pocket.. it's like a neon sign that somebody is either carrying, or wishes they could.

    :lol2:

    Nothing like posting a billboard to everyone, that you are carrying!






    When I carry, you can't tell I'm carrying.

    Jeans. Leather belt (sturdy enough to carry the holster/pistol) and either a 'Camp Shirt' or Polo shirt.
    (Picked up a harness leather belt from an Amish guy, in Efrata, PA [a place called "Green Dragon"], a couple of years back. GREAT belt for carrying!)

    That little G26, (or the Mdl 60, or Charter Arms Undercover) disappears.

    Wow. Check these belt out, guys. I've been on a search for a less expensive than the Filson after reading the reviews describing diminishing quality.

    I ended up getting this belt a few days ago simply because I needed a good quality, casual leather belt. It's great. Money well spent.

    :thumbsup:

    Fobus Rototary Paddle w/Thumb release and the Fobus Double Stack Magazine pouch. I don't practice "quick draws" per se. I do practice a consistent and reliable draw. I tend to favor the opinion posted above ... "Speed is fine, but accuracy is final."
