I chuckle at all the talk about fancy cc holsters.


Most people have very different body types and are forced to wear clothing for work that may be difficult to conceal in. A holster that gives the user the most comfortable fit may be cheap or expensive or anywhere in between. I am glad you chuckle at folks trying to start concealing and laugh at their choice in gear.

Perhaps you are poor and jealous. What a man chooses to buy and carry is his choice and he uses it to protect his life. Most folks don't place a price on life or being comfortable.

Exactly what's uncomfortable about the "holster?" Is the gun/holster too thick?


I'm a thin dude. So the part that you stick the gun in is too thick. It doesn't wrap around comfortably. With an extra 50 lbs I would be good to go.

It's good you're happy w/ your Uncle Mike's holster. I've had a number of Uncle Mike's holsters through the years, as well. In fact, my newest holster is an UM. I bought it to relplace my prior UM holster for a Taurus 22LR revolver; the plastic part that attaches the holster to the belt broke. That's ok since I got bout 20 years of use out of it.

Although I've got a number of holsters, I wouldn't call any of them fancy. I've been pleased w/ each one of them. That's the main thing w/ any tool: it should please the owner. OTOH, I don't read of many who cc regularly and long term using an UM holster If your UM pleases you and meets your needs, that's great. That's one of the good things about forums like this--we can share different thoughts and get differing opinions.

Well said.


I know Uncle Mikes isn't exactly a premium holster. But it works for me on a day to day basis.

I am not meaning to make fun of anyone.. I just don't think one has to go spend a ton and have every holster under the sun.

I know some guys like that. I am not bashing them but they will have all the toys but always make excused why they can't CC.

To me it's just something you have to make a serious effort to incorporate into your life style to CC on a regular basis.

To each his own.
