Those of you that Concealed Carry on your Spyder, what type of holster do you use?

[Lew L]

Condition 1...........

.

Condition one may not apply to me--------- laser sighted j-frame S&W, with shrouded and bobbed hammer. IWB Crossbreed holster ( total concealment). Carry often, but I know that every bullet has a lawyer attached to it. Most of condition 1 applies to semi-auto pistols.

Pete, Never had to draw.

CCW taught us:
1. Have situational awareness.
2. know where the exits are located.
3. Leave area if at all possible.
4. Be the first to call LE if you need to.
5. Know the rules of gun safety and apply them at all times.
6. Safely practice draw from concealment ( unloaded weapon with ammo in the safe).
7. There is more..................

USAR pistol team for 2 years but that was a looooog time ago.

Currently I carry at 4 o'clock IWB but I'm going to purchase an Andrews leather Car Jacker holster for both my bike, and my truck. Much easier if I ever (God forbid) had to rely on it.

Bravo concealment OWB under a shirt or jacket. Always condition 1.

I'd rather have it and not need it than to need it and not have it. Just like jumper cables in your vehicle, you seldom need them.

 

[RULINGCHAOS]

Most Street and Steel jackets have a concealed carry inside pocket. I love mine.

 

[RULINGCHAOS]

Too fat for appendix carry haha

Society is so screwed up right now, I don't know where you could assume you were safe and need not carry a weapon. I am an Elder of an old line conservative church and we have discussed multiple times the risk that some shooter might invade a Service and what we should do to protect the congregation. The consensus was to encourage those members that were qualified to safely carry to do so. In fact within the last five years a Medical Doctor was killed as he left Sunday services at his local Lutheran Church. Admittedly, he was performing abortions and the shooter was an enraged anti abortionist. I've become a member of the "I would prefer to be Judged by 12 than carried by 6 club" Because I am a practicing attorney I cannot carry in the Courthouse but otherwise I am always carrying and always when on my Spyder I carry with the weapon at SOS position and a round in the chamber.

 

[FrogmanDave]

Let’s add to this discussion, do you carry with a round in the chamber or not?

Always

 

[TCBoone]

I carry with the weapon at SOS position and a round in the chamber.

What carry position is SOS? Thanks!​

 

[K80Shooter]

What carry position is SOS? Thanks!​

Maybe SOB :dontknow: Small of Back. I was wondering the same thing. I even googled it to no avail.

 

[Knizar]

Maybe, SOS = Sling on Side?:dontknow:...Bill

 

[Bartender]

Just my poor typing skills. Meant SOB not SOS. Small of Back. Sorry.

There's your answer TCB.

First, mods please forgive and remove of this is forbidden territory.

When on roadtrips we prefer to carry while on the trip.

I’ve tried my normal 4 o’clock IWB holster which isn’t great, but manageable.

I’ve also tried my shoulder holster, which is fine, but the chest band is sweaty under my mesh jacket, and I get looks when I take the jacket off at stops.

Looking for other suggestions - How do you prefer to carry pistols while riding?

 

[Bfromla]

Too many variables between States Laws to be comfortable with that - To each their own & level of comfort, hopefully I won’t need it or be questioned.

 

[rjinaz86323]

Depends on what I am carrying. I either move it forward to 3 o'clock or carry a cross draw. Both with thumb strap.

 

[Dusterdude]

When I'm in my jeans, I carry IWB. When in my work clothes, I carry in a fanny pack.

 

[Dasmoetorhead]

IWB Apex cond 1

 

[Gwolf]

All my weapons were lost in a boating accident. They went down with the boat and could not be recovered.

 

[safecracker]

I use a Sneaky Pete holster.

 

[700wolvy]

On the Spyder, I will carry in a pocket on jacket or pants.(still in a holster) Always loaded. IWB/SOB for most other carry. I look at states with reciprocity or constitutional carry. If a state has neither, I try to avoid those states at all costs.
