Paddle holsters vs. OWB holsters
There have been several occasions where I have had to sit down and re-read all of the various holsters designs being made from the major manufacturers to read about any chances or variations that have been made. Last year we saw a big increase in people buying .380 guns and not very many holsters were being made for it yet. There are also things like lasers that come into play and that limits the types of holsters you can use even more. I expect that since the Ruger LCR and LCP have been given a good reception in the gun industry that next year will be easier to find more options. I still not on the .380 bandwagon, but if that’s what people want to carry, any gun is better than no gun.
I changed some of my work week carry methods after hobbling around with sore spots from the times I had to do a lot of lifting and working with my CCW gun and I have recently switched up some of my holster and carry methods to give my body a break. For anyone that is actually carrying 7 days a week and does a lot of physical work, IWB with a medium or large size gun will catch up with you. I have found that the Galco holsters that are OWB holsters, that you have to put a belt through don’t work very for me because there are times during the day that I do have to take my gun off because I am going through various buildings with high security measures and it’s annoying to have to practically undress in a car each time. One thing I throw into my CCW mix is a good Galco paddle holster like the Havana.
