Anyone have an opinion?

Does anyone have an opinion on "A Better Holster"?

A Better Holster

[nightrunner]

i hear it has a VERY slow draw, only good for very deep concealment

[Raoul]

So maybe good for a BUG.

[nightrunner]

possibly, but id be more inclined to use a ankle holster or a pocket holster for a bug

[nightrunner]

the uses ive been explained to for have been either church carry or a loosely prohibited place, such as your office building prohibits guns but you carry anyways deeply concealed.

I've seen them at the gun shows. Unless you're wearing it under an open shirt or jacket, the draw would be far too slow, in my opinion.

Well, not every self defense scenario needs split second deployment to be effective. There's plenty of times that "sneaking" a gun out could save your ass, too.

Although that getup makes my torso feel claustrophobic; but I don't like undershirts period.

I was thinking the same. Under another loose layer for summer. I can see that the draw would be slow.

I bought some 5.11 compression shirts for wearing under my vest last summer. Dear Lord never again.

I would think a shoulder rig would be just as good or better.

i echo this opinion.

still think there are better ways to carry whether its your primary or BUG than a concealment shirt

That I have. Not terribly concealed however. My IWB is much less noticable.

[Guest Ghostrider]

I like the vertical shoulder holster.

Wish Bianchi would build one to fit my XD...

I wear a t-shirt most of the time in the summer and if I go somewhere I throw a big loose shirt over it - so a vertical shoulder rig works pretty well for me. And I don't have to worry about keeping my pants up or and printing cause it's right below my armpit.

I hate the "Miami vice" horizontal style - prints like a mofo...

[ttocswob]

I may consider one of these...(Better Holster)

I'm experimenting w/ a belly band to achieve the same deep concealment. EDC for church and work, under a tucked, button up shirt. Comfortable (for me) anywhere from waist to armpit.

As for slow draw - that's me! - in a SD situation, I hope to exit, or duck and cover, then sneak draw from concealment only if necessary. Requires unbuttoning (or popping) one shirt button before drawing.
