Want a comfortable holster? Get a pocket gun
“I want a comfortable holster” is the top question being asked of us in March 2014, we never mind getting asked questions like this because we know right off the bat that this person doesn’t have the slightest clue as to what they are looking for. In the last 2 months we’ve had 3 people walk out the door regretting buying a particular firearm at a gun show because “they got a good price” on it, but found out nobody has a holster for it. Ask all of the people with the Smith & Wesson shield how many holster options they had in the last year. People normally choose a firearm because it fits withing their criteria of what they can carry but often the only holster options are not going to be idea. Sure you can get a paddle holster for just about everything but what are you going to have to wear to conceal a paddle holster in 90F temperatures?
In most parts of the United States you are going to have climate changes and holster options can vary depending on your wardrobe. There are plenty of firearm you can put in your pocket if you wear the right kind of clothing but we choose to stock the Elite Survival Systems pocket holsters because so many people don’t use a pocket holster at first and end up finding out the hard way about how much lint there is floating around. Now that Glock is making the Glock 42 .380 pistol, it’s hard to not consider some sort of pocket gun in your CCW routine. The reason to use a pocket holster is to keep it lint free as well as reduce printing and also make sure you do proper testing with your clothing because not all pants pockets will grab onto the pocket holsters out friction designs and it won’t separate from the gun when being drawn, clothing materials can matter.
