I missed this one. You aren't coming up in my feed any more. Damm YT. I used to appendix carry back in the day but now i got a little portly. I usually carry at the 4 oclock position on my belt, but now I spend so much time driving the car I got the old Miami vice style shoulder rig. I know it makes me look like Starskey and Hutch but I'm big enough to hide it under a jacket or even a golf shirt. Keep rocking TCG!

[@ropedgoat3938]

cant say enough good things about guerilla tactical! some friends and i are in the process of building a private range here in georgia, intended to be a more friendly space for lgbtq+, poc, leftists, etc. basically a place for marginalized gun enthusiasts, in a part of the world notorious for oppressing these groups. the folks at Guerilla came through with a sizable donation to our gofundme, basically putting us over the edge of what we needed to start building. of course, Guerilla puts out a damn fine product as well, but i just had to take a moment and recognize their generosity and comradery! ps, "gray bae" - im deceased! 🤣💀

Another cool intro that is like its own mini-movie. You should be in a Matrix style movie.

[@gesamtszenario]

I'm a very tall and fairly chunky guy, so my Glock 17 works amazingly well in appendix carry. I saved the wider jeans from when before I lost a little weight. But not gonna lie: Having a loaded gun without a manual safety pointed directly at my junk, does leave me a little nervous. I mean, better at that particular part, than at the femoral artery, but still...

[@eddiepeterson4675]

Now have 3 kore belts and I agree they are seriously genuis with the stiffness for my gun and somehow comfortable.

[@ino592002]

[@robertpagel8951]

Greetings TG. First let me commend you on your retention shooting. Well done girl! This is one i can't go along with. Wish I could, tried with a handful of top tier holsters just not comfortable for me. Still enjoyed following along 😉

[@Glandash]

Appendix is for everybody. From the itsy bitsy ladies to 6’3” big guys built like semi trucks like me. If you’re a big dude, the advice on appendix is OPPOSITE of skinny people. Loosen your belt (I carry one size up for regular IWB but TWO sizes up for appendix), and adjust up when sitting and down when standing. I’ve carried Glock 19s, 19Xs, PPQs, my new PDP, and an M17 in this fashion, and it makes life much easier. T-Rex Arms Sidecars have been my rig of choice for reference.

[@tomarmstrong4761]

Not built like a semi, but more like a cement mixer, so I haven't been as comfy with AIWB as I might be once I trim some adipose. I have a couple Muddy River Tactical holsters for AIWB, depending on the pew-pew, and I'm just more comfortable with a 4:00 IWB with an Alien Gear Cloak Tuck (I think their Shape-Shifter is too complicated) most of the time.

[@thevuittonet777]

@@tomarmstrong4761 im shaped like a slimish pear (fruit) and ive found appendix to be super uncomfy with a full sized glock, im starting to think a side by side holster might be the best option for the love handles

[@coreywilliams5357]

@sheparddog117 if you have a functioning holster, then the weapon is completely inert until you draw it. Might as well be a brick. However when you holster you need to be super careful of your garment and trigger, but that's just as true when you carry in other positions.

[@psukhopompos]

@sheparddog117 carry a weapon with a manual safety and train hard with it. Practice practice practice

[@adamkreuz9068]

@sheparddog117 how does a firearm without a safety have the safety fail? Cops are notorious for incompetent negligent discharges.

[@bevans7772]

Living in the Florida Keys, it's hard as hell to wear anything without printing and that's with an M&P Shield. It honestly comes down to the cut of the t shirt I'm wearing. No jackets and I only get to wear a hoodie a few times a year. But I will definitely be ordering a Kore after seeing this. Thanks again for the content! 𓅭𓅮𓅯𓅼𓅰

[@sabotagesavant5277]

Intro is great, really liked your practice shooting style. Very close range, intermediate close range,opposing 2 targets while backing away. Realistic practice & creating distance from the threat. Distance favors the practiced shooter. Wondered if you often wore that outer garment. Yeah, I got it easier than you when concealing, 6'3", 220 lbs. Intro music 👍🤘👍🤘

Awesome review! You mentioned it was a comfortable rig on the long drive out to the range. Does the seatbelt cross over it? Is it still accessible with the seatbelt fastened?

[@TacticoolGirlfriend]

If you position the seat belt just right and don't have the coat in the way, yes, but it's a bit tricky with this outfit.

[@xxmrbrooksxx]

I appendix carry despite my beer keg for a gut. At work I carry a Sig P365 in a T-Rex Arms Raptor but no weapon mounted light. On a Kore Essentials leather belt. Small gun, easier to conceal because I'm not suppose to at work. But not at work I carry a CZ P10F with a Surefire x300u in a LAS Concealment Ronin- L 3.0 on the same belt or a S&W M2.0 fullsize with the same light in a T-Rex Arms Sidecar on the same belt. I love carrying appendix.

[@warrenharrison9490]

Production is on point!

[@seanbrandt3615]

I'm always curious about CCW options for folks (like me) with a stomach. Even in my most fit condition I've had something of a stomach, which makes appendix carry at best super uncomfortable and at worst very obvious as well. I have found some success with carry options around the 5 o'clock region but was curious what you or others have found effective, if there has been any research into these alternatives around different body types. Worst case, personally, I don't mind if our enemies know I'm armed, but I'm sure others need options. Regardless, thank you for your videos and continued work! Introducing leftists to gun culture is incredibly important and you do a lot of solid work in that realm.

[@TacticoolGirlfriend]

Definitely consider your waist height of your pants as that really will determine how a lot of this carries and conceals. A lot of folks may very well find that their 4-6 o'clock positions work as an alternative to appendix though. Try it all!

[@DANCINGWITHTHEFAILS]

Try the PHLster enigma! I'm looking to get one for myself,

[@sirsnydley]

for dunlap beergut crew, appendix isn't for us, go for the 230 to 3 o clock.(for right hand) which means your off hand should cross draw your shirt up while your main hand unholsters your weapon.

My rig is so much simpler than this, it's an elastic belt with an owb holster I found at a gun show, and used spare clips to convert it to iwb. Super comfortable and dirt cheap, even works with shorts and sweatpants.

[@pdxmarine1430]

Love the Kore belts, I've got a couple of them, though I've switched to less stiff belts since moving to the Enigma. I've never been a fan of sidecar style holsters, they're great if they happen to fit you, but I prefer having the holster and mag caddy as two distinct pieces so I can control the cant, ride height, and spacing of both items individually

[@BasementOps]

Look at the sidecar 2.0 you can run them separately.

[@pdxmarine1430]

@@BasementOps true, same with the T1C Axis but you can't adjust the ride height or cant of the mag caddy, and the holster is optimized to be used with the mag attached, so it's still a worse setup. Also fuck T-Rex Arms and their homophobic bullshit

Great review TG! I’m a really small framed guy myself and I also tend to wear much tighter clothing than almost everyone, I plan to conceal carry the Glock 48 in the future and I’m gonna buy the Phlster Enigma as well, the Enigma is probably the only CCW rig would allow me to comfortably carry a Glock 48 without printing, hopefully thats the case cause I really don’t want a smaller firearm

[@dajosm]

On one hand I'm always about carrying how you're comfortable...on the other...I don't understand fears about appendix carry. A good holster, trigger control, and practice. All those things will mitigate accidental berry shots as much as just not carrying that position. There are also guns with external safeties that are fine firearms which (again with practice) won't slow you down in toggling that bitch to kill on the way up and out. We're supposed to be the anti-irrational fear group ya'll lol. Great video by the way. The reloads with the jacket on were wicked smooth especially.

I appendix carry using a Tier1Concealed Axis Elite appendix holster with my Glock 19MOS Gen5. I’m a bit on the fluffy side and my setup conceals well. I just wear a looser fitting shirt. I do plan on getting a subcompact with a Tier1Concealed holster with UltiClips for when I want to appendix carry while having my shirt tucked into my pants.

It's extremely unadvisable to try to outdraw someone who's already drawn on you, but if you were just asking for a general rule on how fast to try and get your draw time down to, they say a 1.5 second draw to first shot time is a good benchmark to shoot for.

[@kimamato5196]

I've been curious about cc for a while. Why does printing matter, beyond just the other people around you being comfy or not?

[@andrewmn3024]

Some states used to have laws against it, also in addition to people’s comfort around you, you don’t want to become a target. Look up some videos on open vs conceal carry. A printing Concealed weapon has all the disadvantages of both open and concealed carry.

[@MikeA817]

One consideration is if you're printing and someone notices, you run the risk of drawing undue attention to yourself and causing panic in those around you. You don't want to be considered the mass shooter when you're trying to be the "good guy with a gun." Lately, in my opinion, open carry--apart from concealed carry--has become performative, provocative, and political.

[@dajosm]

The simple answer is that if you're printing, you're not succeeding at concealing your carry weapon. CC isn't just about making people around you comfortable who may not like guns, it's so you don't make yourself target 1 potentially to assailants who clock you before you clock them. It's about keeping every possible advantage.
