The clips are about an inch wide, and are about 8 inches apart. 8 inches measuring from the far back to the far forward. So, it will take up about 8 inches of your belt.

I have one of my guns on me anytime I leave the house. For anything. I do not carry into work though. I carry both my G23 and my S&W 637 about the same amount of times a week too. It just depends on where I'm going and what I'm doing.

^ The only advantage to horse hide is that it is more resistant to moisture. If you sweet a lot, or live in a high humidity area, it may be ideal. I went for the traditional cow hide.

I try not to sweat a lot , but there have been those days that just seem terrible.



Judging by these charts, I wouldn't benefit a whole lot from horsehide, considering high humidity areas would be like Tejas.

Well it showed up today, still playing with positions, noticed its an SOB to get the retaining nuts to sink into the horsehide. so far 3 o'clock seems to work the best for me, only complaint is it seems to be chaffing my side just a little bit.

I used a hammer to tap retaining into the leather. Then it is easy to get the screw in there. I haven't had any chaffing problems, but I'm sure the dry weather doesn't help any.

day 3: Partial days of wear.

OMG, it is so comfortable finally. Was going to have words with this holster about being so rough on the love handles, but now its superb!

Well when you have a child in Diapers, you have quite a bit of useful stuff on hand.

I bought a Mtac holster and so far it has been awesome this winter. Now with it seeming to get a little warmer, going to see how this thing conceals in T-shirts and how it holds up to sweat while being in a 110 degree warehouse during the summer and 90-95% humidity.

Since this is a gun thread (just for fun)
My latest purchase
