That's a nice looking holster - I do have a bit of a gut... but even if I didn't I'll never be ok with wearing a gun pointing at my naughty bits. That's a big NOPE for me :mrgreen:
I've got a little gut too but I have no problems wearing it. If you think about it, you pretty much flag your body regardless of how you're carrying. Proper firearm handling, which I'm sure we are all aware of, is to keep your bugger hook off the bang switch unless you're ready to fire. Non issue for me lol.
I agree with what you are saying in theory, but in the heat of the moment, things happen - yes we're always flagging some part of our bodies to some degree - but if I shoot my foot or put a new interesting piercing hole in my butt, I feel like those are more favorable to walk away from. I guess I look at the chance of a ND/AD being about as equal as getting into a situation where I must use the gun to defend myself, both are slim to none chances, but I choose to prepare/plan around the possibility of either happening. People become rich gambling on worst odds, just my line of thinking.
Fair enough lol. Slow, smooth deliberate training is key to not shooting any body part. We all owe it ourselves to be proficient.

The problem is that even with my lightest carry piece (g19) they want to tilt on the belt. The best performance I've gotten out of one is when I replaced the belt clip with a sturdy leather loop, thereby negating the utility of that single point clip. It's for a commander sized 1911, and works well enough. I can carry it with my aliengear holster much easier without having to adjust when I enter/exit a vehicle.
What belt do you wear?

Comp-Tac makes some nice looking ones. Seems there are quite a few makers out there now.
I wear a wilderness 5-stitch 1.75" riggers belt. Think I found "the one"
