Recently I decided that I should move to an all kydex holster and started shopping around. I got a very helpful reply from JMCK last night regarding an IWB3 (thanks!) and was all set to pull the trigger, so to speak, when gotto thinking more about really trying AIWB. I've always largely dismissed it despite the theoretical advantages because I thought it would be highly uncomfortable given a small gut and where I wear my pants (lower, aroundmy hips, ever since I was really little).
But having lost almost 40 lb recently and mostly shrunk the gut, I figured maybe I ought to give it an honest try.
Not having a really good holster for it, I grabbed one or two of the cheap kydex clipon ones we had laying around from years ago and experimented a little while getting dressed this morning.
Surprisingly, I found it to be a lot more comfortable and concealed than I had figured it might be, even with the cheapo holsters. Things seemed to fit well very close to center, with the inboard edge of the holster even with the edge of the belt buckle; that kept me from getting jabbed in the leg or other sensitive areas. The frew practice draws Idid in the mirror seemed to be faster, subjectively. I'm thinking seriously about ordering an AIWB instead.
I think I'd like to buy from JMCK because of how helpful they've already been, but I'm having a hard time picking out that the differences between the options are. Any suggestions from the crowd to narrow the choices? I'll probably email them directly later but I figure user input is always valuable too.
Thanks!
