Feels like summer over he where I live. Was looking for a good appendix carry holster for a Glock 26. Any suggestions for a 5'9" 180lbs person? Was looking at the Raven Concealment appendix holster but open to all opinions. Thanks.

They're nice... I dig the rear stabilizer gimmick thats available for those. Ive been eyeballing the Minotaur one but I think Ive sold myself on a couple different other ones.

FOXX and crossbreed come to mind both very nice.

I think my next toy accessories will be an MIC and a clip draw though. Im just concerned with the clip draw "rocking" with the weight of the loaded mag.

He's asking for appendix though, and the Crossbreed Supertuck is not designed for that. I am also looking for an appendix holster for my revolver that I'll be picking up soon.

It's pretty similar though no?

I know some people do it and like it, but I must ask WHY???? I've tried it and next to IWB it has to be the most uncomfortable thing on the planet, especially when seated/driving.

Look at trotac. He's a vendor on here and has them for sale. I just ordered the AIWB and a MIC holster from him and love them.

It's so easy haha, and with only a t-shirt and a small gun it conceals so well. Especially with the snub-nose I am getting.

I can OWB carry a compact with nothing more than a t-shirt while wearing a pair of shorts and you'll never know I have anything on me.

It's all in the holster.

I can carry my 23 with a t-shirt on in my IWB holster, but certain shirts (thin ones because it's hot as balls here in GA) just don't conceal well. It may be my body type, but it's hard to do.

All good stuff. Just don't want to blow my balls off. Seriously. Lol. I like my OWB/IWB Raven holster.

If I may ask Mike, what holster do you use? I am taking my PTC class on Saturday and have been starting to look for holsters. I will be carrying my G23 and at times the Sig P238.

You could certainly try a belly band holster and position it where ever you like.

I prefer the Uncle Mike's IWB holster. Blackhawk also makes something very similar. Has the smoothest draw I have ever seen. The exterior is faux-suede that grabs your clothing to aid the holster staying in place during a draw. The only part exposed is the clip that grabs your jeans on your belt line. Even if I tuck a shirt in, I pull the shirt out in that spot and wrap it around the clip.

This is what I carry my GEN 4 27 in 90% of the time. I got it at my local gun shop all it says on it is BPS? It's a Jason W. holster.

Thank you sir! I am getting lots of good reviews on the Rush AIWB, please feel check it out. I have no idea how to paste a link from this iPhone app, but I did a full description write up in the vendor section of the forum.

I have watched enough videos and/ or seen enough guys (guys that shoot and train A LOT) in person put up some ridiculous draw and hit times from AIWB that I have no doubt there is something to it. Drawing from AIWB doesn't require as "telegraphing your intentions" either. With all of said, I've got a few more pounds to lose before I can do it comfortably for long periods of time.

I haven't tried an appendix holster yet. What are the benefits over an IWB holster? I have my nice new FoxX holster and it conceals perfectly under an untucked shirt. What would the benefit be to have an appendix holster?

Serious question, just trying to learn.
