And the pay scale for my profession sucks here.
Mrs. CF and I are back in civilization after 4 days at a remote cabin in SE Alaska. I carried my 1301 for hikes/bushwhacking expeditions. We saw bear sign but no bears—until this morning. I was outside the cabin drinking coffee and checking the InReach. Something made me look around, and I saw a black bear was very close behind me. I yelled “get the fuck out of here!” and drew my Glock 20. The bear did leave, but took its time.
Side notes: my Safariland ALS holster got soaked in the rain, and the lining softened. I found that no matter how I adjusted the release screw, it was possible to overinsert the gun, causing a locked condition that was difficult to remedy. I will probably switch to a non-retention holster.
My Kenai chest holster did not get used at all. It’s simply too inconvenient.

Care to elaborate? I find chest holsters to be almost ideal when I'm hiking with a backpack or wearing waders.
Waders. That seems like an excellent application for the Kenai holster.
This trip involved so much putting on and taking off gear all day, that a Safariland QLS belt/paddle mount was more convenient. I had my shotgun slung for hikes with a pack, so didn’t get to try the chest rig that way. Also, I couldn’t figure out how to wear the rig with a floatation device. Maybe next time, I’ll give it a try.
Interestingly, my draw from the chest holster isn’t that fast compared to 3:00 or AIWB.

Shotgun is a good choice. Far better than a handgun. I wear a self inflating PFD due to completely hating zip up PFD's whether carrying handgun or not. None of the clothing I wear outdoors is conducive to wearing a belt holster, but I'll admit I haven't tried a paddle setup.
If you have a standard vest type PFD try cutting off the left bottom pocket and affixing some velcro as a locator for the chest rig strap. Adjusting mine for a PFD only takes a few seconds.
If you're using an inflatable PFD position the pistol so the left side of the inflatable acts as a wedge to angle it inward slightly.
Chest rig draw stroke is definitely different and I'm not surprised you're faster from the position you're used to. It's a weird angled sort of index otherwise you go all crazy waving inflatable arm tube man at the car dealership with it. I like to do a lot of bushwhacking so a quickly accessible slung shotgun is a pain.
Glad your trip went well and mister blackie moved on.
