@@demonstratedconceptsllc4918 Very informative, as I'm a total noob to actually owning a firearm (I don't own one yet). However, I'm learning a lot more from your video than I've learned from the previous 10 videos from other channels. You're one of the only individuals that actually demonstrates his techniques! So I gotta ask is that shoulder strap for the likes of "John Mcclane" (played by Bruce Willis in Die Hard) still a thing? ...Because I get the impression from other YT channels that no one carries like that anymore.
Whoa, that sock hack just blew my mind. Have an Enigma inbound, and was sad that the Papoose isn’t currently available… So I’ve spent the last few days thinking about the best way to DIY one. Your method is genius (and easily washable).
That is a wicked little trick from 3:15-3:36. It's this experimentation that advances techniques. You're not just a piece of meat; I love you for your mind......
I’ve been doing something similar for years with a bellyband. I call it the the Bundy draw as in Al Bundy. It also gives you the option to put your hand on your grip preemptively without actually showing the gun like you can with pocket carry too. It’s the best of all words IMHO. Edit: another great thing is if someone does get the jump on you and they try to shake you down, because of the weapon location, they may very well miss it, and as soon as they let their guard down, it may give you an opportunity to draw on them.
When you switch between deep carry (gun completely concealed) to "traditional" AIWB carry, what is moving, the holster, or your pants/beltline? Is the holster always in the same spot and you're adjusting your waistband or does the holster move and the waistband remains in the same place?
How would this compare to the lcrx 3" revolver? I imagine concealability would be similar, but would the hammer of the lcrx get in the way of the draw, or impact concealment some other way? I'm a new handgun shooter looking into a .22 revolver for a first concealed carry piece, and I can't decide between the lcr .22 or the lcrx .22. Love your channel, and keep up the great work! :)
With a bobbed hammer, the LCRx is an excellent carry gun. Without bobbing the LCRx, the LCR is a superior carry gun. An exposed hammer pokes the belly, catches on clothing, and tempts the user to fire single action which is generally a bad idea in defense use.
Very helpful video.. I'm considering running my enigma similar but the challenge is being heavyset and having the big old belly in the way lol... Diet currently underway but until then I will have to adjust unless you have any suggestions with your past customers.
my immediate carry sweet spot is under my belly bc if its any higher and on my stomach in a valley it still pushes on belt loops and protrudes through my tshirt, the only way for me rn to 100% hide it is on my pelvic bone.
Is this a good option for someone in a wheelchair and that has a belly? More and more lately, I've been wearing a lot of sweatpants for comfort as oppose to jeans. The problem though is conceal carrying a firearm during the warmer weather. In the colder season I can do a shoulder carry, but not in the warm season. I'm also trying to eat healthier and do some upper body exercise to lose the belly, but that'll take awhile for me, especially in my condition. So for the warmer season I do an AIWB carry, but like I said earlier I've been wearing more sweatpants lately. I was thinking of trying a holster with an ulti-clip, but that'll just probably make the gun and holster flop over forward since the sweatpants will not be able to fully carry the weight of those. This looks like a really good option for me. I just want to know how comfortable it is sitting down a lot. I would imagine the draw stroke would be similar with an AIWB holster and belt. And no, I do not want a fanny pack option. LOL. I also don't want an off-body option (like a holster attached to my wheelchair).
I despise low rise. Flex/stretch is big. Look for something 'crossfit' or 'powerlifter approved'. I really like LAPG jeans one size up in waist. These were all my preferences before Enigma. Now they are mandatory.
@@demonstratedconceptsllc4918 Cool! Half expected to be told to be normal and get something smaller haha. Now to find a holster that's compatible with the C2 qnd the enigma!
You don’t have to do anything. If you prefer, you can shift it upward for comfort. Far better than having the holster around your knees or worse- visible through a stall at floor level
what size waist jeans do you recommend for someone looking to conceal carry like this? In other words, if I usually wear 32 jeans, do you think going up to 34 is enough? Thanks in advance.
@@demonstratedconceptsllc4918 I'm guessing it won't be very comfortable for me since I have a pretty small build (I'm 5ft 7, 125lbs), but I'll try it out.
not a fan. banned at all competitions and most ranges. Draw path requires user to muzzle themselves and anyone in a 180 on one side of the shooter. Also incompatible with my daily attire.
I find it immensely helpful that the enigma offers the ability to transition depth of concealment based on unexpected changes in the daily itinerary
Didn't expect a magic show. Nice work. Always thinking. That's why I have notifications turned on!
lol. 'Magic in my pants' was 2nd choice for video name. Guessing it would have hit the wrong (right?) audience.

Impressive. Especially the covert switching from deep to normal concealment

From out of stock to into sock. I like it!
That readjustment though. You are a damn wizard my friend.
This is the best explanation of this system I have seen.

I just got an Enigma and am figuring out how to set it up. I LOVE this.
Happy to help! Hope you have lots of fun with the new rig. Try everything. This is all uncharted territory.
What a badass review! Honestly thanks for the review, will be getting mine on Monday and super excited. Thanks again!
Another great video sir! Thank you for the innovative ideas for the rest of us to absorb.
Nice work. Well done.

Both are moving. Mostly holster.
Thank u for this info.
Hey Rhett. What belt are you using? I just bought a new leather belt from Crafted Class. I may get another for CCW only. Any suggestions?
With this system, belt does not matter. In this video I'm wearing a cheap amazon webbing belt. It is totally floppy, ad a terrible gun belt.
Love the sock mod!

This would be much more comfortable, concealable, and accessible in sweats in a wheelchair than any other option I’ve found.
Thank you!
Do you have the concealment claw on the holster for deep carry? The holster claw almost seems to print the most for me in deep concealment
Depends on gun
@@demonstratedconceptsllc4918 with the lcr 22 it looks like no wing at all. Is that correct?
If jeans are the key for comfort, what factors are you looking for in jeans.
I despise low rise. Flex/stretch is big. Look for something 'crossfit' or 'powerlifter approved'. I really like LAPG jeans one size up in waist. These were all my preferences before Enigma. Now they are mandatory.
@@demonstratedconceptsllc4918 great info. Thanks for sharing.
@@honkhonk1555 Thanks for watching!
This holster is the city special will it fit the Enigma Express or the original Enigma ?
Both. Strongly recommend just buying the enigma express. Comes with the city special already installed.
So you said you just marketed your new "comfort touch" holster? Lol awesome videos man
HA! Thanks much for watching!
If anyone knows the best holster to carry with this and Prodigy 4.25" please lemme know
Feasability of carrying something like staccato C2 like this? It's their "compact" (for 2011) double stack
Plenty of dudes deep carry a g34. The bigger you are, the easier that will be
@@demonstratedconceptsllc4918 Cool! Half expected to be told to be normal and get something smaller haha. Now to find a holster that's compatible with the C2 qnd the enigma!
Thank you
Now to get one. They go out of stock really quickly.
Found out about your channel from lucky gunner.
What does "deep concealment" mean to you?
What is the specific scenario where you would recommend this setup?
In semi npe or full on npe.
What holster do you use with the enigma with the P365?
Enigma express- comes with holster
Interesting. I hate to ask but, public bathroom routine with the enigma? Do you have to completely unholster the whole rig? Thanks for the video.
You don’t have to do anything. If you prefer, you can shift it upward for comfort.
Far better than having the holster around your knees or worse- visible through a stall at floor level
@@demonstratedconceptsllc4918 Thank you for the clarification. Much appreciated.
what size waist jeans do you recommend for someone looking to conceal carry like this? In other words, if I usually wear 32 jeans, do you think going up to 34 is enough? Thanks in advance.
In my flex denim, 34 is tight without gun. 36 is plenty room with gun.
Idk why I really struggle to sit down with this setup
Think it could be done with an M&P 2.0 compact with a light?
I’ve seen it done with a g19 and a light. I just wouldn’t find it comfortable on MY body.
@@demonstratedconceptsllc4918 I'm guessing it won't be very comfortable for me since I have a pretty small build (I'm 5ft 7, 125lbs), but I'll try it out.
Interesting
Gonna try it with mine
I have an EC9s will this system work for that firearm?
any holster that accepts a modwing or similar bolt pattern wing will work.
@@demonstratedconceptsllc4918 do you have any recommendations on holsters? What do you use with your enigma? Thanks fren
Here you go ladies.😏
Keep it up
Ever experimented with shoulder holsters? I would appreciate what you have to say.
not a fan. banned at all competitions and most ranges. Draw path requires user to muzzle themselves and anyone in a 180 on one side of the shooter. Also incompatible with my daily attire.
How do you go pee with that setup?
damn he didnt help that dude gettin world stared in front of him smh my head /sarc
Totally uncomfortable. I would never carry that way
What do you carry? How do you carry? How many days a week and how many hours a day?
Do you wear one size up in pant size?
Same size that I wear with standard Aiwb
