Every form of carry flags other people. If you walk past seated people, if you bend at the waist, even yourself as you move your legs throughout the day. You want to see a lot of people get flagged? Go to any military event. It’s simply not possible to avoid. As gun users, we have some situations when the Barrel Line Laser Beam touching people is something we see as flagging, and other times when we trick ourselves into thinking it didn’t happen.

The Alien Gear shoulder holster doesn't have those last two problems. You can pull and replace your pistol one handed pretty quickly with them because: 1, the holster has "suspenders" to allow the gun to move with you while keeping it in place, and 2, there's no strap to hold the gun in the holster. It uses a thumb release retention switch. Works great. Now I just need to move up north where I can justify the coat. Hot in the south.

Carhart winter coat has a perfect inside pocket for us 1911 people. Deep enough to be secure and tight enough to keep the gun from flopping around. Enough grip sticking out to get a good hold for drawing... bit of adjustment for firing grip. Coat material is thick and stiff so no printing. No shoulder rig to get into and out of. I have a regular leather vertical hang shoulder rig that I wear for summer car trips.

I have typically thrown a shoulder holster on when I didn’t want to get dressed with pants/belt just to say, run to the store to get milk. I have also worn a shoulder holster when I’ve gone biking as it’s a little more comfortable. Regardless of how you carry practice-practice-practice as over the years I’ve seen a lot of people fail to remove a firearm from a holster under stress.

Due to a wound I received in the military, I cannot wear a holster on my Right hip and I either use a shoulder rig or SOB holster for my double stack 1911. Its a lot of weight to get used to and I am barrel chested with a somewhat short torso. A shoulder rig works for me now that I am used to it, but it took a while for it to become comfortable. I actually feel like I have an advantage, since shoulder rigs arent really all that common. Im a Private Investigator and I usually wear a light dress blazer when I am out in the public, which covers the rig nicely. I've become proficient drawing and firing and its very accessible while I am driving. Police in Texas are still a bit hinky about License to Carry and now we have constitutional carry, so I always let the officer now I have a firearm and its in my shoulder rig. I keep my hands on the wheel and ask them if they would like me to disarm. Usually, they thank me for letting them know and thats the end of it. All in all, I really like wearing a shoulder rig and even if I could wear a hip holster, I dont think I would.

This may be a super niche scenario to some. But one I often think about in a city plagued with armed robberies that can be a plus for shoulder holsters. A scenario where you are ambushed and are being robbed at gun point and you have the perp trying to dig through your pockets. In a scenario where they have the drop on you and are digging at your waistline to get your stuff a hip or appendix carry could immediately get you shot when they see it OR would have to force you to draw at arguably the worst case scenario in a self defense situation. With a shoulder holster it allows you to comply with the robber and still conceal your weapon in a area where they would not likely try to look for anything to steal. Any thoughts?

My tailor has 'Wide in the chest' on file for all of my suits. Perhaps I can chalk it up to being full Italian (my Tailor is also Italian). So he naturally adjusts all my suit jackets and sport coats to be "wide in the chest". This is a very important term for those who are looking to get their suits custom tailored. It is uncouth to enter such establishments and start talking about 'gun this and guns that'. _Wide in the chest_ is the phrase that summarizes everything without the need to say the word(s) out loud. FWIW - *_NEVER_* buy off the rack and be done with it. One must _absolutely_ get every suit tailored to your physique, lest ye risk looking like a fool. Fun side note: For those of us who grew up watching 'Miami Vice' or the later version 'Nash Bridges' as is my case; the shoulder harness has become synonymous with that 'Hollywood Cool Guy' appearance. It was only later on (once I reached legal age) that I quickly realized that a shoulder harness fulfills a very specific niche. It is highly unlikely you would be using a shoulder holster as your primary method of concealed carry. Even the gents that I know who practically live their entire lives in a three piece suit, still have alternative methods of concealed carry. They also refuse to carry anything that costs less than $2k. IE - Your Nighthawks, Wilson's, Triarc Systems, Dan Wesson's, Ed Brown's, select CZ's and so forth. There is even a gentleman who carries a B&T in his briefcase/backpack. Just remember - _Wide in the chest._ Stay classy my friends.

Point of concern... Caleb needs to clear his off-hand much higher during the draw. He flagged his own arm and hand many times. Drawing from the shoulder is made safest if the offhand goes all the way up to the head. It clears the hand, forearm, and elbow completely out of the way of the sweeping muzzle.

I have a couple shoulder holsters for a couple different guns so I certainly don't hate them but the commenters saying, "I'm not worried about reholstering.", need to rethink that. Consider a scenario where you have to draw your firearm in self defense. Whether you fire or not, chances are very good someone is dialing 911. Being the one holding a gun when police arrive is a bad idea. An even worse idea is to move that firearm to reholster when the police are ordering you to drop the weapon. Reholstering is always something to consider.

If you correctly adjust your shoulder holster, rarely will you have to attach it to your belt. Unless you’re wearing a 7” Blackhawk, it should not swing forward more than an inch or so if you bend, as in picking something up. A lot of times the gun is balanced with magazine(s) or speed loaders. These are also not necessary, but some holsters, such as the Miami Classic, are designed for this balance and are brilliantly comfortable.

Another drawback, that was amply demonstrated in the video, is that it is very easy to muzzle yourself while drawing and holstering. Also, since most people are right handed, carrying in a shoulder holster puts the gun butt in a location where it is hard to defend from a disarm attempt. I’m not saying that those issues should rule out shoulder holsters. All carry methods have pros and cons and these are just some issues to consider.

@@jeremiahm3765 trigger discipline is not the issue. ALWAYS Keeping it pointed In a safe direction is. Not sometimes. Just like you always treat it like it is loaded. And never, not just sometimes, point it at things you don't want to kill or destroy. Or always, not just sometimes, keep your finger off the trigger until you are ready to shoot. Putting a gun in a holster does not make the rules invalid.

@@jonathanrogers9961 Trigger discipline > muzzle discipline. I'm not saying the direction of the muzzle doesn't matter, but "down and away" doesn't do much good if you fiddle with the bang switch. Ricochets and shrapnel can't be prevented by muzzle discipline, but they can be prevented by keeping your finger off the trigger. If putting the weapon in a holster doesn't make the rule less valid, then everyone living a second story apartment will have to disarm immediately. The ceiling/floor isn't gonna stop a negligent discharge.

@@jeremiahm3765 That is why you follow the rules. All of them. Whenever possible. Not just when you feel you need to. Its not always possible true. but whenever possible. There are plenty of good holsters and carry options, including vertical shoulder holster that don't muzzle everyone behind you. Also if your on the second floor, or just feel like it, making a load/unload barrel is cheap and easy. 2 -5gal buckets full of sand. Point the gun into the stacked buckets when loading or unloading. your talking like $20.

@@jonathanrogers9961 I completely agree. I guess my point is that most, if not all, issues created by bad muzzle direction, can be remedied by trigger discipline, even though it doesn't justify the bad muzzle direction. To be honest, a horizontal shoulder holster wouldn't be my first choice either, if only for concealment sake. Now that you mention it, a bucket full of sand isn't a bad idea for any household, especially if you're trying to teach good habits to new shooters.

Carried a 7.5" Super Blackhawk in a Vertical shoulder holster for several years in Alaska. I could draw it while sitting in a car, hiking, etc. It didn't stick in the snow if I squatted down. As for the single-action, you can cock it while drawing.

As far as cover garment, a baseball jersey worn unbuttoned is a rather inconspicuous and comfortable option. Hawaiian shirts worn open are also viable, but have a negative boogaloo connotation.

it might not be the fastest draw, but it is the best conceal carry, besides, your almost NEVER gonna be in a situation where you drawing doesn't also include you STEPPING OFF CENTER LINE, for those who don't know what that is, watch warrior poet, john explains it better than me, but put simply, you move back and to the side or just to the side, in a retreating pattern, behind the nearest cover when drawing your gun, so you don't become a target, and in that situation, your ability to cowboy draw, doesn't matter, in the end most of the time if you have to draw fast, you practice your style any way you can and you'll be fine

I've tried finding a holster solution for hiking. I live in Florida and a person can open carry only when they are fishing, hunting or camping but not when hiking. Inside the waistband is not comfortable when you're doing 10-15 miles in a day and it's 90 degrees with 90% humidity. Are there any holsters that keep the actual firearms concealed/covered but the rig is on the outside of the clothes for easy access?

I believe what you seek will generally be in a fanny pack form if you hike with a framed pack. Otherwise check out 5.11 Tactical. Many of their bags have an easy access pocket for concealed carry. They are pricey, (what GOOD products in the industry aren't) and they are NOT fast draw, but it does the job. I have a sling bag that I have carried for years. It was $200 new in '15, and my only complaint is that it doesn't have a third point adapter to secure it when moving rough.
