AIWB (Appendix Carry)

[Nephrology]

After trying a Fricke Arch Angel a while back and not liking it, I went back to regular IWB carry. Been wanting to get a GOOD AIWB to start training/carrying that way. I recieved my JM Custom AIWB for my M&P9 yesterday and have been wearing the unloaded gun around the house/drawing/reholstering for the last two day's. I wore it while taking my dog for a walk and running some errands today. It conceal's the full size pistol really well for my small frame ( 5'10'', 155 lbs). So far it's pretty comfy, although I am still playing around with belt buckle placement. I'm RH and right now have settled on the belt buckle at 11 O'Clock.

What are the improvements you notice between the Arch Angel and the JM Custom holster? I currently carry a G19 in the Fricke Archangel and while I like it, it does feel kind of "pokey" occasionally. IT's perfectly comfortable when I have it settled into its "groove" in my iliac fossa, but I am wondering if I couldn't improve somehow.

The Fricke is nothing more than a Blade-Tech NANO worn 0* cant IMO. It does nothing to tuck the butt of the gun or aide in concealment.

That was my experience, too.

I did a low light class last night with the Cane Derby AIWB.

It was great, except for re-holstering.

So Ive gotten a HK p30, Im going to try a JM AIWB because it seems this will be the eastiest way to conceal it, but my question becomes, how do you carry a reload?

Many (Todd included, I think) carry a mag around 9 o'clock. Others carry up front near the gun.

I've been playing with IWB and OWB and position, and have been happiest with an IWB at 11. Your mileage may vary.

what was the issue with reholstering is the CD difficult? or did you meen going slow as to not shoot your self in the parts?

I just didn't want to blow off the goods.

The only way to be sure, was to reholster with both hands.

i like to find the holster with the thumb of the shooting hand then holster works in the dark too.

Where is everyone finding the Blackhawk CQB for $40? I would like to try experiment with one for my P220 but the cheapest place I've found them in on Amazon and it's still going to be close to $60. Also, are these fit to the pistol? Amazon's website list them as size 10 for the P220/P226?
