Anybody carry between body and belt?

[elcaminoariba]

I just watched that good ol Christmas show with Yukon Cornelius and noticed that they have him open carrying a revolver. It's between the belt and body. Could it be termed "open mexican carry?"

IWB (Inside the Wasteband) holster. Lots of people do.

Ritchie Leather does a holster that is between the belt and pants and I have one for the Rohrbaugh and he is making me one for the Glock 23.

Guns wore so,are easy to wear CLOSE and therefore do not print as much.

I have a Blackhawk holster that's a universal design .. size 7 holds my Taurus 111 or Glock 23, wear it inside my pants clipped to my belt. NO printing at all

 

[Iam2taz]

I like "Open Mexican Carry" It sounds so much more formal! LOL

Uh... You mean IWB? Lot of us do. I run a Ernie Hill Speed Leather IWB for my 1911's or a Galico IWB for my snubbies.

That is how 'Belt Pistols' were carried...


Works good with the right Guns, works poorly or worse, with the wrong ones.

I'm familiar with iwb. I was more referring to essentially using the belt as a way to hold the gun.

I carry ITB, using an IWB holster (between belt and pants.) Carry guns are Kel-Tec PF-9 and Bersa Thunder .380. Like Scaaty says, it pulls the gun under the profile of the belt, smoothing out most of any printing. But, no, I do not do it without a holster.

 

[Andrew Wyatt]

that's what mexican carry is.

Maybe you'd like a "Beltster"?

I belive this is also known as "Plaxico carry".

X2!!! I wear one every day! Keeps my 1911 in line, and holds my pants up. A high-quality product, IMO, but ya gotta remove the rivets from your jeans on that side.

I thought that brilliant moron attempted to carry it inside the waistband of his SWEATPANTS

I carry my G30 in a Galco Jak slide holster under my belt, but outside my pants. I like the way it carries.

OP is asking about Carry where the Pistol is between the Belt, and, Trousers/Pants...not IWB, not Holstered.


Lol...


Many people carried the longer Cap & Ball Revolvers that way.


Or similarly, used a strong Sash or a Sash over a Belt even I s'pose.


Works best with a long Barrel and a fat Cylinder.

 

[Ridgerunner665]

The Milt Sparks Versa Max II also fits quite nicely between the belt and pants...

 

[gym]

bikini holster, gun in holster, holster has belt through outside between the belt and the pants. Yes very efficiant, one holster "a galco" fit's most all my medium frames

 

[makarovnik]

I stopped carrying Mexican style after I opened my fly in the restroom and my gun slid down my pant leg and almost fell out the bottom.

 

[oldbanjo]

I have always carried my SP101 between my pants and my body, a metal clip hooks on my pants, my 2" belt hides the clip.

Include Wild Bill Hickock with Yukon Cornelius as wearing under belt (or sash) and on top of clothing.

 

[Deltaboy1984]

I do when I do CW stuff.

 

[WadeWilson]

Yukon Cornelius is a bada$$!
