    Looking for discussion posts on JM Kydex OWB1 and OWB2

    I searched and sifted through the first 8 pages of search return for posts discussing JM Kydex OWB1 and OWB2 holsters. Surely they have been discussed before?

    The good thing is you never know what useful tidbits will pop up in the discussion, but I'm primarily looking for:
    -fit on small peeps like 145 lbs, 5'6", very athletic? My lack of fleshy hips causes some holsters to cant out at the top rather than in.
    -truly conceals better, draws it in tighter?
    -if it draws it in tighter, how is forming a grip on draw?
    -any recommendations between the two given what I've described?

    Thanks for the help, and happy shooting, Jerry

    A search for JM+custom will give you a plethora of threads.

    What is the context of your shooting?

    Competition?

    Every Day Concealment?

    Hunting?

    Law Enforcement?

    Jerry, the OWB2 may not be for you, as it tends to feel stiff on very skinny people. The OWB1 would work better and would probably need to be as narrow as I can make it for you and use different loops than my normal OWB1(the are great however they are narrow and have to be spaced a little wider to work) , basically would be my Road Dog (simple little belt slide) with full coverage of the gun.

    There's a reason that Tony has such a loyal customer base. If you have a question, you can go straight to the source and get an answer.

    +1 on communication with Tony. The one time I wanted his advice on holster selection, he responded quickly.
    I’m 6’, 175 lbs, with 36” waist.
    If it means anything, I just ordered my
    4th OWB2 this weekend. Yeah, I like them.
