works for me......
regurgitating this from a similar question a few weeks ago...
I've carried the PT-111 for 9 months with a clip draw and here's my $.02...
clip draw is ......
1. surprisingly secure......meaning your not going to have your piece fall out on you and it doesn't shift position. I carry at ~4 o'clock with the clip on my pants and under my belt. I carry it low so the hand grip is right on the top of my pants, which helps stabilize it.
2. limits you to a straigh up and down cant....unless your going to mount it cock-eyed on the frame....which I can't see working.
3. allows some rotation, which I like, as I can easilly rock the gun forward if I have to sit in the car. It returns to verticle position when I stand up.
4. adds next to nothing to the thickness of the package being carried.
5. conceals very well for me....I usually were a cover garment (fleece vest, sweeter, sweatshirt, untucked polo shirt) but I can effectively tuck it under a dress shirt as well.
6. makes for easy transitions....into/out of car, house, office, etc....
7. makes for a handy draw, but a cumbersome return (can't really say re-holster). I use my off hand to pull the waist of my pants out and tight and then slip the clip over the taut edge.
8. is not going to protect the gun from your sweaty bod, or your bod from cold steel. I almost always were an undershirt (still uniform of the day) and my piece is stainless, so this doesn't bother me.
and for the big question......SAFETY!
MY PT-111 is the older DAO and I carry one in the pipe, with the manual safety on and under these conditions I feel my clip draw makes for a safe carry.
I do not think I would use it on a piece that has no manual safety. Even though I never have had any snagging issues while carrying. Mounting the clip draw with one in the pipe and no manual safety would present to much risk of a ND (right into my a$$) for me to accept.
