Looks like a non-secure holster -- or not?

As far as permanently parking someone, if you don't make a T-Zone hit or a CNS hit, you cannot guarantee that they will go down and stay down. If you DO make one of those hits, they will not get up again, under their own power. Ever.

This is true and oh so difficult under pressure. One reason why I like .45acp, it reminds them how much it'll hurt if they can get back up!

Hmm sounds familiar....

Btw, next time we visit the relatives in AZ, I want to check out what's in the works Jon, maybe something for me and the wife, or an advanced course if I can get away...

 

You got it brother!

 

We're putting together custom tailored "Training Days" now.  Force-on-force, stick fighting, knife fighting, simulator, live fire, personal armorer, evasion and kidnapping escape, etc.

 

Or we can just go roll around in the dirt at the range while issuing challenges and betting all day.

Hah! I like it! I'll have talk to you more later on it, but definitely! I still need time to heal and get back to work, plus H is starting a new job as well, so it's going to be a year from now or so

Turns out, the holster works as well as members here recommended. I carried all day long, cutting, pulling, loading and hauling brush. Tree branches. Five trailer loads. Even though the holster has no backstrap, the pistol stayed in place the whole time. What's more, the guy I was working with said, at the end of the day, he had no idea I was carrying. And he's gun-conscious. So thank you Bullard for making one truly excellent holster. Also I was wearing a sloppy t-shirt, which is now fashionable.

 

Oh, and I should add, the holster is so comfortable that I forgot I was carrying whilst dragging tree branches and getting them on the trailer.

 

Hmm... is that a bug, or a feature? Supposedly, a guy should always be aware of that shooting power on his hip. What it is for me, I don't notice carrying a pistol. I notice not carrying a pistol, like I notice not having house keys and a wallet. The feeling of something is missing. Don't know if that is good or bad, by common standards.

Yeah, the same for me. I don't really notice it until it's missing.

[98Z5V]

Mine's never missing, until I go to bed - then it's beside me. 

[shibiwan]

same here, it's like you're missing somethig... and I'm vacationing in CA now without any firearms. *cringe* Feels strange.

I started shooting a single action .22 LR Colt Frontier Scout wasn't a good shot for awhile, but practiced every afternoon after highschool. I shot 50 rounds every day tin cans fence posts rabbits. I got pretty good. Could hit a running rat half the time. This was the only handgun I owned until after college til boot camp, and as a MT driver and I wore the service 1911 45. I wasn't good until I started practicing every chance I got then I bought my own Colt Govt model thia allowed more practice. I figure you need to commit to a pistol or revolver. Then get one at least 40 cal. Or better, unless you are a sneaky assassin, or a rat exterminator.

[Microgunner]

I'm so whipped in my old age of late that I've taken to carrying a 1911 in 22TCM.

A six year old could shoot this thing, but oh, what a wallop it delivers.

I believe it may be the magic cartridge.

You fellows ought to give one a try.

[98Z5V]

Have a buddy at work that has 3 or 4 of them now - one hell of a cartridge! :hethan:

[AngelDeVille]

IF S$W made that scandium framed revolver in an 8 or 9 shot 22mag WITHOUT the Ftard lock on it, I might own my first S&W in 20 years....

[Microgunner]

The locks don't bother me, I just ignore them.
