Hi gang,
With the advent of warmer weather I found my Ruger P-90 in my Bianchi Black Widow belt slide a bit too hard to conceal, so I started looking at other methods.
Although I have used shoulder rigs before, they don't really fit my life style, so I decided to try IWB.
Went to the local sportsmans warehouse and had some good help from a sales man. They didn't have anything in leather IWB for the Ruger and since I wasn't sure if I could carry IWB I didn't want to spend a lot of bucks and order one.
I ended up with an Uncle Mikes nylon Sidekick. It was unbelievably comfortable but would not always stay on the belt when I drew. So once I knew I could carry IWB I started looking at other options.
I chose a DA3 from Ted Blocker leather, http://www.tedblocker.com/ , and am most happy. It comes with 2 sets of clips, one that holds the gun pretty high and tight but doesn't allow you to tuck your shirt. The other is lower and tuckable.
After using the untuckable for a few days I tried the tuckable set. They allow the weapon to ride a little lower and it doesn't abuse my ribs like the other clips. These clips go under the belt and use J hooks.
I cannot believe how comfortable this rig is. I can't remember the last time I have felt a need to check the position of my CCW when in public and have completely quit tugging at my shirt to make sure my weapon is covered.
The folks at Ted Blocker are super people. The DA3 for the P90 doesn't come with a thumb break but when I said I wanted one they designed one into the holster at no extra charge.
I was so impressed by the quality and workmanship that I sprang of a belt at the same time.
I have a pancake holster for a 1911 from them that I have had for several years and have been extremely happy with.
If you are looking for quality leather, at a good price, from nice folks, give them a call 503-670-7972 or visit their website at http://www.tedblocker.com/ .
I have no connection with them other than the quality of their work and the manner in which I was treated as a customer.
