I do it every day. I wear long pants about a week out of the year. Otherwise, plain old Levis cargo shorts with a Wilderness belt, Glock 23 in a Galco Stow-n-Go in the small of my back with t-shirt untucked. You'd never see it unless I bent down to tie my shoe.

There is crazy, and then there is clinical...

When they are medicated for crazy, they are craaaazy!

LOL - you have to be 250+ pounds or wear it super-baggy with tons of other stuff packed to not show a big bulge on the side of your thigh.

[red-beard]

Yep

How does a, let's say, Glock 19 with full magazine, not sag the pants and swing around as you walk/trot? It seems there would have to be lots of structure in there?

As for why covert - besides the "shoot me first" aspect, if you're happy to be obviously carrying, I imagine there are cheaper ways to do it.

Check out the Wilderness belt. Lots of easy ways to not sag, print or jostle around. Again, I do it every single day and in plenty of places where I'd be in trouble if someone made me.

Those clothes are way cooler than dressing up as coboys and indians!

Appearently you didn't look at the system.

There is a neoprene holster which wraps around your thigh and also hooks into a loop in the pants near the inside beltline.



The shorts are bit baggy and the pistol doesn't show. It is well held and doesn't swing around. I've using this with a Stainless fullsize 1911 and it doesn't move.

Oh, I didn't see that part. I did spend a bit of time looking at the site, even watched the video.

So could you use the thigh holster with any pants, by having a seamstress add a seam zipper?

[red-beard]

Absolutely. They would need to add a loop near in the waist area to help support the holster as well.

Hmmmmmmmmm. You have an excellent point. Somewhat baggy pants could be convertered with a side zipper.
