For the heavy fella

Rick,

Please... for the love of all that is holy. Go fondle a gun, spit, fart, you may even need to fire off a snot rocket. You are in bad shape my friend!

I'm guessing a daughter in kindergarten... Our son is 7 and just started second grade... All he talks about is not flipping his "cards"... it is a GOOD thing... last year was rough... lol

Works for me. I love my Aker's Model 152 for my Glock 26. It is a single beltloop tuckable. I initially found my "love handles" interfered with the draw. The addition of the DT suspenders solved the problem.

What typed of carry is most comfortable for a big guy? Also what holster brands/types are most forgiving around the spare tire?

I always just assumed I'd be using a ankle holster as in summer or winter my job requires I wear dress slacks every day.

Thanks

Man, I wonder what they did back in the Angels Flight slacks days! I'm a big guy and my everyday carry is a Glock (cuz they're best) 36 and a Cross Breed (cuz it's comfortable) IWB holster. It conceals very well.

Buba was jut trying to help and I appreciate the verbal "slap" to wake me up... I've been in touch with my softer side for far too long.

So now it's off to do manly things that include scratching areas below the equator and spitting... Hell, I even cancelled this afternoon pedicure.

I think the original thread was asking what type of holster for OWB? I really like this one:

Bianchi Carry Lok


82 *CarryLok™

<><> If you can stand a six month
wait,,, may I suggest an Alessi
CQC-I...

I know some fellows with dimensions
similar to yours that use that holster
for everyday carry... I also use the
same holster for a Colt CCO,,, although
I'm not as big as you...

I think where on your belt you carry
also helps... I carry just before the point
of the hip,,, at what may be called the
2:55 position...
