Smart Carry testimonial
I've been using the SmartCarry holster for the last 61 days.
It is nearly perfect!
I carry a Ruger P95, a 9mm with a 4" barrel, which is not a small gun by any means, everywhere I go.
I have worn it with shorts, jeans and slacks.
I have worn it at home, while shopping, doing yard work and just walking down the street.
Last week I wore it to an amusement park and went on a corkscrew ride that turned me upside down repeatedly. No problem.
Is it safe? I think it is.
When the gun is holstered, like any good holster, the trigger guard is covered and protected.
When worn correctly, unless carrying a mouse gun, the barrel points down between your legs, not at your family jewels.
As the web site says, to draw, you hook your weak side thumb into your waistband and pull out. you draw straight up using the butt of the gun.
It is actually pretty easy.
Let me emphasize: no one knows I am carrying. Even my wife can't tell without, well,
grabbing at me.
I like that I can wear this holster with a suit, or with shorts and a t-shirt -- or even no t-shirt!
A couple of things to keep in mind:
1) You need room in your pants for the gun. No painted-on jeans!
2) How can I put this delicately? I switched from briefs to boxers, in order to carry my
original equipment in a muzzle-down position.
3) If you're like me, and it's summer, there will be perspiration down there!
Although moisture can't come
through the back of the holster, it seems to go around. To combat this, I use the Sentry brand Marine Tuf-Cloth protectant. Nonetheless, I am seeing a little bit of rust stain on the holster itself. (This may be an issue with any IWB.) I should have paid the extra $35 for the stainless model!
Overall, I love this holster. I don't want to wear a vest, second shirt, a belt, or a jacket all the time. With this, I wear what I want and stay comfortable all day.
Oh, and I'm not a paid spokesman, just a satisfied customer.
