For daily concealed carry, there is no doubt that IWB holsters are the default choice of carry holster with which to do it…but there are some tricks to using them. Where is the newbie supposed to get started?
First, with getting a quality IWB holster for concealed carry such as those from Alien Gear Holsters. You can see ours here:
aliengearholsters.com/iwb-hols...
IWB holsters are shorthand for "inside the waistband," as the holster goes inside the waistband of your pants, jeans or shorts. Typically, a clip of some sort goes over the waistband and belt.
You need to select pants that will accommodate the pistol and the holster. Some people have to wear a size or two up, though your mileage may vary. Some folks find they don't need to size up at all, others do.
To put your concealed carry holster on, you tuck the holster into the waistband and find the appropriate location for the holster to sit. The easiest way is to undo your belt waist tab and hold up your waistband with your weak-side hand. Tuck the holster just behind the point of the hip, so your gun should be somewhere between your hip bone and your wallet.
After you slide your holster belt clips over your belt, refasten the waist tab and belt. Then carefully and safely insert your pistol, and cover the holster with your shirt or cover garment. You may need to select shirts and cover garments that help you conceal easily.
If you carry IWB, you need to learn how to draw the pistol from concealment. Make sure to learn how to do so safely and securely. Start slowly and smoothly, and work your way up to being fast. Practicing the draw is a must.
The IWB concealed carry holster is the standard for daily carry for a reason, as a good holster will carry comfortably and securely, while also making concealment easy for the person carrying. Take care to select a model that has good retention of the weapon, and that is comfortable to wear for long periods.
It's also a good idea to buy a holster from a company that offers a good return policy and warranty on their holsters, like the Iron-Clad Guarantee from Alien Gear Holsters. All of our holsters come with a 30 Day Test Drive trial period, during which you can return the holster if you don't like it, and a Forever Warranty, covering the lifetime of the holster.

I've owned 3.0 thru the 4.0, but it seems Alien is missing by pushing either one or more holsters. The BIG POINT to all of this is, if opt for Alien Gear your OPTING INTO A LARGE SYSTEM of carry/mounting modes with extreme FLEXABILITIES just as one carry my flex. One shell gets you into a variety of modes. Unique in the holster market. Keep thinking ahead Alien Gear, your doing a great job.

Just recently picked up an Alien Gear Cloak Tuck IWB Holster for my recently acquired Kimber Ultra Carry II .45 and love it! Contours to the body well, secures the firearm, and once your mind gets over the fact that the holster is longer than your typical IWB holster, after some fitting and adjusting it's very comfortable and secures the firearm extremely well!

I purchased the cloak tuck 3.5 and I have to say that Alien gear customer service is outstanding. The holster didn't quite work for the firearm I had intended but they changed out the kydex portion several times to get it just right and with their chat feature on the website it was super simple to talk to someone without calling and being placed on hold. I'll buy from them again and if you're not sure about it just buy one, if you don't like it I'm sure sending it back would be a breeze.

I've been trying to find a video on this product with a pistol similar size. Not quite full size but not quite compact. About the same exact size as my Glock 19. I'll catch a lot of flack for this. But I like the mod.2 better than the G19 due to a few reasons. I also like the safety features of the XD series

And when u draw your gun it's nice and smooth I give it a 10/10 compared to other holsters

You should advise your customers: To Remove the holster, push DOWN on the top of the belt clips BEFORE trying to unclip from belt. That releases the little inward facing “hook” at the bottom of the clip, and makes it possible to pull the clip UP and off the belt. Like many, I had a hell of a time getting the holster off until discovering this... Thanks for the simple, easy to understand presentation. Just got a 3.5 Alien 👽 for my Shield. Very comfortable.

The bottom of the holster rubs on my leg..and also the top stitching rubs my stomach. Maybe I just can do appendix carry..but Im not giving up! I like the holster, plus all the features I can get in the future...esp a docking mount for the under the dash. Maybe try it at 330- 4 o' clock position?

The size of the gun is the biggest factor. T-shirts of any type are the second. T-shirts are often solid colors and anything on the waist or midsection (like fat or holsters) shows immediately, even when standing straight. Bend forward even a few degrees and everyone can see that something is there.

I never liked carrying in the 4 o clock position. A) when I holster it is a lot harder to watch the gun go into the holster and check to verify if the holster is clear of obstruction. B) it is hard not to flag myself putting the gun back in the holster. That being said use what is comfortable and works for you.
@thomabow8949
@thomabow8949 Жыл бұрын
Agreed. First few weeks of carrying I carried 4 o clock. Now I'm way more comfortable and honestly conceal better carrying 2-3. No impediment to sitting. No chafing of my hip bone. No jutting into my back or pressing the hilt of the gun upwards by sitting on odd surfaces. Pants would get dragged down by awkward weight distribution on the belt (then again, it's not a gun belt) whereas in 2-3 it fits snug and doesn't drag the pants down. I also don't have to reach behind me to grip instead of at my side

Hi Mickey, we don't offer a holster specifically made for wheelchairs. However, we think that our ShapeShift Shoulder Holster or our ShapeShift Driver Defense Holster would work great for a wheelchair. We will attach a link so you can check them out. aliengearholsters.com/holsters/alien-gear-products.html Please let us know if you have any other questions or concerns.

To me, Tom has his holster too far back. I position my Alien Gear holster with the front belt clip on the other (front) side of that belt loop. That way, retrieval is easier.

My go to IWB holster my only complaint is AG moving away from the 3.0 in favor of the 3.5s. I don't care for the 3.5 because of no option for steel clips like what was offered for the 3.0s. Other than that I love your holsters.

No holster will accommodate a light unless it's made with a specific model light in mind and the shell molded with a specific light on a specific gun. These holsters are designed to be as slim and comfortable as possible and you'll lose that with the thickness of most lights. As far as I know, the modular shape shift holster line doesn't have accommodations for any mounted lights.

It makes it difficult to holster when you can't see where your muzzle is pointing. This is more complicated than it needs to be. Stuff it in the front and it will make holster and unholster easier. People are freaked out about appendix carry but it allows the best access and security to your gun. Keep it simple.

While some of our ShapeShift holsters may appear bulky, they actually measure up the other companies quite closely. We’ve streamlined our shells to fit your handgun perfectly using gun replication technology, while minimizing the footprint of our IWB holsters to take up less room on your belt. We want you to see for yourself though! We offer a 30-day trial period on all of our holsters.

I find being a chubby guy with a slightly bad back that it is harder for me to holster my firearm. I find myself reaching my left hand around my back from the left trying to find the opening of the holster with my index/middle finger from my left hand s on j can guide my firearm in.
