I carry both my Glock 23 and a Kahr 9mm with the in the pants hip holster made by galco. I also use a blackhawk retention holster for the Glock. The in the pant holster are the way to go if you ask me.

I just keep mine in my hand (old SW .38 spl w/Hyrdos). Somtimes I wave it out the window of my truck.

I carry a Kahr .40 and a Glock 22. The Glock is my duty weapon, and rarely carry it off-duty. That's what the Kahr is for. I have a variety of holsters for it, including a Fobus Paddle, Galco IWB, and Bianchi Minimalist each for different occassions. If I do carry my Glock, it is in a Fobus Paddle that supports a tac light. Either way, they are all on my hip, always. When SHTF, it's all about muscle memory. I dont' want to have to think about where I put my gun today.





I have yet to find a good way to conceal this one. :ne_nau:

The tac light on the Kahr? You mean the Glock? I like it alot. It's the Streamlight TLR-1 and it's a bright mo-fo. Has come any handy many times. When used at night, people don't even know they have a gun pointed at them. They just see blinding light. :2thumbs:

Yep, thats what I meant!
My pops is an officer in Idaho and was talking last week about wanting a tac light on his Glock. I have never used an auto with a tac light so I thought I'd ask around for him.

LOOKS BADASS!!

I highly recommend it. At $100.00, you can't go wrong. Is what is sad, is he'll spend more on a good duty holster to facilitate the light, then he will on the light itself.

Where in Idaho is your dad a cop? My father-in-law is also a cop in Idaho (Idaho State Police, Pocatello)

You can get a belly band and carry that way as well.

My dad carries his S&W Airweight in his front pocket and I know several folks that do that as well.

I guess the point - if there is one - you'll have to try different holsters and configurations until you find the one that is best for you.

How do you like that Taurus?
Thinking of getting one this week

Scary…

The next time I make fun of a European’s fanny pack I just might get pistol whipped. :roflol:

For me it depends on the situation. I voted Ankle because thats the way i carry 80% of the time. I work in a professional business setting so its slacks and a tucked in button up shirt. If its on my personal time its an in the pants holster, I have been know to carry in my laptop bag as well as in a coat pocket if its cold enough... I carry the XD Subcompact...
