The fact that you actually and frequently respond to comments is impressive. Ordering one for IWB and my P365 as soon as I can solve my reliability issue, which for the moment I am attributing to the choice of ammo or a bad lot of it.
Well, you may be right after all. Just watched a Glover video on grip. Very detailed video for something that seems on the surface to be so simple or intuitive. So now, I'm not so sure that I don't limp-wrist this thing. The confusing part is that with a 1911 .45ACP, I don't have the reliability issues that I have with my two 9MM's. More time on the range is needed. Oh darn!
Just got back from church and saw your vid. Every since I have had 1 of your holsters I have been wearing shirts, sweaters outside my pants. I will have to practice your method and learn it. Videos of tucked shirts, going to the bathroom ect. are are helpful. Thanks.
I know I'm late here but you could make a two-layer belt with slots to tuck clips into so they're a little more subtle, if it's absolutely necessary to clip onto the belt.
If you're wearing high waisted pants I'd suggest getting your shirt shortened a little so you don't have as much material to pull out. For low waist appendix carry is also an option although the clips will be more visible of course.
speaking of new belt clips........what do have or recommend using as a "belt" clip for carrying while wearing sweatpants/athletic shorts/athletic pants?
@@proteqcustomgear Do you have a video showcasing those new clips? Their website is not much help in trying to figure out which one to use. I current carry in a Concealment Express all kydex holster w/ a Taurus PT111.
I don't holster mine at all I keep it locked and tuck it down the front part of my pants and throw my t-shirt over the top of it voila concealed carry been doing that since I've got my concealed carry 7 years ago
I wear a lot of vintage. High waisted trousers with suspenders. Any tips for carrying without belt loops and a higher waistline? Most shoulder rigs I've found have a belt fastener as well I've noticed.
Great question! I would try Cross-Draw, or a shoulder rig. proteqcustomgear.com/collections/frontpage/products/premium-iwb-cross-draw-holster-for-concealed-carry
I wear a suit everyday. Do you think tugging on your shirt to get to your gun is better/faster than pulling it out of your pocket? I carry a small Sig P238, so it easily fits in my pocket. I go back and forth between methods. Not sure which is better.
With a P238 I'd go with pocket carry. You can have your hand on the gun inside your pocket which is a nice option to have. It's a little harder to get to when seated, however, so if you're sitting a lot then I'd consider carrying on my waistline.
@@proteqcustomgear Thanks for the reply! I like pocket carry because it's easier, but my CCW instructor is very much against it. I live in Cali which means getting a CCW requires a lot of training and classes, so I have hours of listening to why pocket carry is bad. His #1 reason is because the holster isn't easily removed, which is kind of true. #2 reason is he says it's slower. But i'm not so sure. Either way, my thing is .. it's better than nothing.
Thank you for sharing your experience, Jason! I can assure you that you would truly enjoy wearing one of our rigs. They are regarded by our customers as some of the most comfortable holsters (tucked and untucked) that they've ever worn. You can wear it all day on the boat. I personally guarantee it, or I'll buy it back from you.
SUGGESTION! Use the self wicking undergarments. They are made of smooth synthetic fabrics. Very comfortable and most importantly, low friction. A cotton dress shirt worn over a cotton undershirt and boxers (or briefs), have too much drag. As for the dress shirt, if cotton, get the “pinpoint” Oxford shirt. Smaller fibers, finer-smaller stitching which lowers friction. Wicking golf shirts or polos as some refer to them. Select shirts with patterns to get a low viz look even if it slightly prints. Only gun people might notice. Sheeple will never know you’re packing.
Don't tell me. Show me. I get so insanely frustrated trying to tuck my shirt in. If I have my pants un-done to get room to fit my hand in, my pants just fall down. If I tried turning my pants and shirt towards the front, so that I can tuck it in more easily and hold my pants up, then when I Square it out my shirt is all twisted weird.
Professor here and your system would NEVER work for me because you're printing head on, more so when when you turn a little, and like mad when you're turned around (and I have to turn and write on lecture hall board). Do you
Never is such a harsh word sometimes... With a looser fitting shirt, our rigs work quite well as a matter of fact. I guess I should have done this video with a different one on.
@@proteqcustomgear You're right. I apologize and take that back. I could make it work for me but I'd have to wear a huge shirt which would look a little odd. Also, I wear only white dress shirts and anything dark shows through so I'd have to buy new dress shirts. I meant to say this would not be practical for me. I forgot that we're all on the same side (of 2a.) Good video - with the demonstration and explanation. Until I make a CCW video, I shouldn't criticize so readily.
@@ccwnoob4393 thank you Sir! For a more suitable application, I might recommend checking out our pocket holster called The Little Buddy. We have several folks in the various suit-wearing professions that carry them.
@@proteqcustomgear Good, but sad to report I haven't been carrying much since taking a job in IL. :( I intend to start again with all this craziness going on but need to figure out how to more easily store in my small car. I have a safe but it's not easy to access from front seat.
Everything was solid until you called the magazine a "clip". There are numerous articles defining the difference between magazine and clip and so many people confuse the two. It's not the same. A clip holds rounds together to feed into a magazine. A magazine holds the ammo and gets inserted into the weapon. I'm not condemning you for the mistake, just trying to help reinforce the difference so gun owners know better.
Smart Carry rigs are fantastic! I carried one myself for 4 years while in college. They are great for deep concealment when not wanting to risk any printing whatsoever. HOWEVER, they are slow on the draw, they make it nearly impossible to pee standing up, they wear out in about a year of regular daily use, causing you to have to buy a new one each year, they absorb and create heat like a fat hog, becoming quite smelly quite fast, and they require two hands to effectively draw. One other plus, depending on how you look at it, is that they do create a bit of a bulge in the nether region especially when sitting.

Thanks Jason! Welcome aboard!

Any luck with the concealable clips you mentioned you were going to put a patent on?
I subscribed and will be interested to know when you have developed a holster with no obvious belt clips.
Sounds good, Point!
speaking of new belt clips........what do have or recommend using as a "belt" clip for carrying while wearing sweatpants/athletic shorts/athletic pants?
That's a great question, Justin! I recommend our new clips from Discreet Carry Concepts. After those I recommend Ulti-Clips.

@@campbelllendinggroup9218 absolutely! Check out the first video on The Cup's Page of our website. proteqcustomgear.com/products/the-cup
Which model of your IWBs are you wearing in this demo?
Did the new belt clips ever get produced?
Not yet! We are super close to tooling it up, however. Just need to determine if that expense needs to be on this year's taxes or next year's.
Is a magazine, not a clip. 🙂
A clip may feed a magazine...but judging by all the comments on this video, technical details are in the wind.

Hello Steven, do you carry appendix?
Hey Sky! No, I don't carry appendix because the belt pressure hurts my lower back. We make an appendix carry rig called The Cup, however.
