    Bedside holster

    Not so fast! In a subscription list of about a thousand, not less that two have reported that form of somnambulism that resulted in firing the bedside weapon. Not the same odds as an asteroid hit. But my question wasn't about the odds. It asked for actual occurrences, or at least that's my...

    Bedside holster

    Thanks, Aarond! Another great idea! Thanks, Aarond! Some beds have metal mattress frames, so this would be limited to wood sided beds. Another factor is being able to remove the bedside mechanism when traveling to use bedside at the travel destination. However, I'm really interested in...

    Bedside holster

    . . . and now, another factor Now let's consider another factor, having already considered kids - what about somnambulism? That's a high tech word meaning "sleep walking". Have any of you know of or read of a person, still asleep, reaching for the gun and discharging it? Seriously, no joke.

    Bedside holster

    Good work! Good work, Suede! For people like me who aren't as skilled and who are lazy, turning it over to someone else is da bomb.

    Bedside holster

    Just to be clear . . . The question I'm asking is about night time/in bed placement. Once up and about, my guns are either on me or stored under multiple lock and key barriers. I would not - and I don't think anyone not bedridden should - EVER leave guns in that position all day. The devices...

    Bedside holster

    A number of older threads [to which reply is not possible] discussed arrangements for availability of defensive arms during the night. Many have said they have a handgun on the nightstand next to their bed. Some keep the handgun holstered in a drawer. I'd like to have your views on the products...

    Need holster for S&W Shield

    Life span for Kydex loops? TAK, I had a one piece IWB Kydex holster for my Shield that clipped onto the belt. Ir worked great for most of a year. Then I drew the gun and the holster came with it - the Kydex loop [which was not replaceable because it was integral with the rest of the holster]...

    Need holster for S&W Shield

    Eventual failure of Kydex clip-on At some point, Kydex clips fail. If they're integral with a one-piece design, there goes the holster. I'm trying a Kydex with leather pull-the-dot loops for my full size M&P 9mm, but for my Shield, I've gone to a Kydex with a thread-through loop. Not as...

    S&W M&P Shield POI

    I thought I was nuts [and maybe I am] or the world's poorest marksman [and maybe I am]. Just to check my sanity and marksmanship, I asked one of the pros at the shop to shoot my M&P Shield. He came up with the same result - it shot extremely high and very wide to the left. The shop adjusted the...

    Two Hand Grip

    I want to express my gratitude to all who have contributed to this thread. As a newbie who's interested in results when I need them - and I hope I never do - you've provided a lot of food for thought. Thanks!

    Two Hand Grip

    Although I've been a shooter since the age of 10, I'm only recently a handgun shooter [last 2 years] for purposes of concealed carry and personal defense. I have two pistols - the M&P full size in 9mm and just recently the M&P Shield [also 9mm]. At an informal shoot, one of the instructors who...

    Concealment: M&P vs M&P compact

    Although I have been a shooter for the past sixty years, I've only recently joined the ranks of concealed carry. Easier said than done! Yes, I carry - but I'm having problems. I have a very bony pelvis that interferes. I already have explored shoulder holsters - and I may have always have one...

    Accuracy compare: M&P full size vs M&P compact

    I'm discovering the challenges of concealed carry of a full size pistol. I can see that shorter barrel and grip can make a significant difference in concealability and comfort. I carry S&W M&P 9mm full size. So I'm thinking: What's the accuracy comparison with the M&P 9mm in full size and...

    Belt or shoulder holster?

    Belt or shoulder carry? I'm using cheap stuff, like Uncle Mike's and other, to try out IWB, OWB and shoulder carry. In no way is the cheap stuff I’m using now my final choice. The only reason I got a cheap IWB and a cheap shoulder holster was to experience the various modes of carry. When I...

    Belt or shoulder holster?

    Here’s the problem: Removeable belt holster versus shoulder holders. And I’m new a CCV. Got the training, the background check, the mug shot and the fingerprinting. Got the permit to carry concealed. Tried an Uncle Mikes generic IWB. DID NOT FEEL GOOD after a long trial period. Try with the same...

    Opinions needed...Leather Holsters

    My problem IWB holsters obviously are best for concealment, but they are uncomfortable to me. An OWB high ride holster would be ideal, except for one thing: I need to remove the holster from time to time. Any thoughts on an OWB high ride FBI cant holster that attaches and detaches without the...

    Happy with your holster?

    "Slim" version of Silent Thunder IWB? I'm almost certain I'll get the Silent Thunder IWB, but I am trying to decide between the regular Silent Thunder or the Slim version. The Slim has the clip mounted to the holster behind the center line, and if you look at the photos, it does allow for a...
