How do you carry your sidearm? :)

[DProBoy]

pockets LoL h34r:

 

[Zak Da Mack]

I carry , my pistol using a dropleg holster. It does the job, but it doesn't feel very safe and is quite cumbersome.

If I ever get round to buying a chest rig, I'm hoping to get an IMI holster and then mount it on the rig, keeping my legs free.

 

[TacMaster]

I keep my pistol in a Viper cordura & nylon holster on my left side, pistol grip facing forwards, for a crossdraw. Say what you want about Viper kit but their belts, holsters and open top 5.56 pouches are decent.

 

[Russe11]

Hmmmm...... perhaps when the only pistol available was a Webbley .45?! Time's have changed my man!

Times have not changed, It's Lies!!!!

Oh and where did you say Webley .45's are available?

Round the back of the Mess old boy, just ring the bell and a jolly nice chap will bring you one along with a splendid cup of tea! Lol

Glock 17 in a Fobus holster with MOLLE clip-on conversion on my belt rig when running with M16, or in a shoulder holster when using my SVD.

I used to use a drop leg which was awful... I also tried other brands... They were all bad. Everything moved and wobbled. I figured rigidity would be the key. So I tried a serpa belt rig for my high capa... That held it much more solid.

So I made a belt rig for my leg... Works awesome.

I prefer drop legs as they move everything out the way... Mags are held in Fastmags. I really dislike chest rigs and plate carriers... I like everything on a belt.

I have a Safariland style dropleg for my M9A1 with torch. Works absolutely fine. The trick is to adjust the leg straps properly and to place it high enough. Most people seem to think a drop leg has to be round about the same height as your knee which is ridiculous.

 

[Richie Boyle]

leg holster strapped securely as high up as possible. The downside is that they block my pockets. I may need to crossdraw now that I have 2 pistols and both holsters are for the right leg

It's funny - I've never yet needed my pockets for anything during a game. Everything I need to carry goes in my chest rig or a holster.

 

[Richie Boyle]

I don't like chest rigs and I don't have enough kit to wear webbing so pockets store everything I need which will now include spare mags. The springer holds 110 bbs which is plenty. The desert eagle mags hold 32 and that is never going to last with auto/semi auto. I doubt I will manage to carry them securely in a pouch anyway. The mags are very slim

 

[Lowlander]

in the left most mag pouch on my chest rig, has both a flap and bungee retention depending on weather / situation, retains the pistol well and allows for a fast draw if i need it.

IMI holsters are fantastic.

SIG P228 - for my FBI kit, it's carried in a right-handed IMI holster on my belt, on my left hip. (I'm more comfortable with a cross-draw than a left-handed holster). Spare mags are either in a pouch on my right hip, or, if I'm wearing it, held in the in-built mag pouches on my (blue FBI/cop) ballistic vest.

For my Army and PMC kits - it depends on what else I'm using. Normally belt-mounted, but occasionally drop-leg. Never worn on my plate carrier, as I find it uncomfortable.

Walther PPK and P99 both have custom made brown and black leather shoulder/armpit holsters. Pistol goes on the left, 2 spare magazines on the right. Made by a family friend who is a leather worker. (Normally does work for historical reenactors and museums). Tailored to fit me, and to hide under a suit/dinner jacket. Incredibly comfortable. A lot better than many of the shoulder holsters which are available to buy in stores.

Use the mag pocket on the front of the leg holster. That's where I kept the spare 32 round mag.

 

[Richie Boyle]

I did that but what about the other 3 that I bought today? I nearly bought 6 but I controlled myself and changed it back

 

[EvilMonkee]

On the front of my 6094A cos my battle belt fell apart. In an IMI Roto holster.

 

[airsoftwarrior147]

I use a drop leg on my right leg, for my sig or my bulldog, need to sow another strap on to hold the bulldog in securely but will be getting rid of my imi holster for the sig probably as it's just annoying, pulling at my trousers

 

[SgtTalbert]

IMI Holster which I bought with a paddle (for clipping over a belt), a molle, belt and drop leg so its quite universal demanding on my load out etc...
