OK. So I'm having some issues with how I'm carrying my CCW. I have a CZ-85 Compact ( all steel ) loaded up with .40s&w. Let's just say that she's easily tipping the scale in the high thirties. I have it tucked into a KD Holsters IWB Belt Defender ( Awesome holster, BTW. I know it isn't the problem. ) clipped to an El-Cheapo Wal-Mart black dress belt ( flimsy ). My problem is that the weight of the pistol/holster wants to pull my pants down ( or at least sag excessively )!
Now I am not skinny, but I ain't big & fat either. Admittedly, I’ve got a slight spare tire around the waist. The problem is that whenever I tighten the belt to try and keep the firearm in place, well - it's too tight and uncomfortable. And in some cases, I can feel the safety of the CZ sorta poking me.
Now I recognize that the belt is an issue - That's why I have a very nice Milt Sparks belt ( 1.5" ) on order. But is that really gonna solve the problem? Or am I just a sniveling whiner who's just gotta learn to deal with it?
Am I alone in this? What are your solutions? ( don't worry - I'm ready to take it! )
