bellyband holster
I was digging through my closet last night and came across a bellyband holster that i picked up about 5 years ago...
does anyone here use one? i usually have to wear a tucked dress shirt and tie to work, and the tuckable holsters i have (bladetech UCH and C-TAC) are still a little bulky and a little obvious (to me anyways). so this morning, on goes the belly holster with my officer sized 1911. amazingly, it conceals a LOT better than my other holsters and actually, feels pretty stable. Only concern I have is taking it off at home and seeing a red line across my mid-section. any pros and cons to this holster? TIA!

I got one for Christmas from our oldest daughter and her husband. (they live in Tennessee and both have CCWs.)
I just can't get used to it. If I have it tight enough to stay in place and feel secure, it feels too restricting. Of course, I have a little extra weight, so that might make a difference. Maybe it is just for "hard-bodies".

ok, it's been about 7 hours now with this belly band. not too bad, but i can definately feel it digging into my skin on the edges.
it'll be interesting to see what my belly looks like when i get home and take the rig off. oh, and i am by far not a hard body, it barely fits my belly, but it does indeed make a good girdle!

actually, this is the second day i am using it, and have it adjusted just right. honestly, i don't even notice it there any more.
really suprised how well this thing works, and much less obvious than the usual tuckable IWBs. really impressed....

My only concern with the bellyband is that the weapon is pointed directly at the crown jewel. Maybe it's a mental thing.

I have a Galco Underwraps Belly Band but I'm leery of the velcro being secure enough to keep the rig snug.

Sush, good to see you back on the forum posting. I wondered what happen to you.
