seems like something inbetween the drivers and middle seat would be better. Roughly same time to pull and aim in a situation you would need to and more descrete and safer in the event of a missfire.

i dunno, youde still need to have a holster on anyway…I think you might aswell just keep in on you…you cant leave that there with your car alone, if you pull it and get out of the car you cant reholster it easily so itll be unsecured if a guy isn’t a deadly threat and he starts physically fighting with you…dumb

I think the theory is it’s easier to grab and bring the sights to bear then if the weapon is physically holstered on your body. Which depending on which style holster you would be using drawing the weapon in a vehicle could be a problem.

I suppose but again…your stuck with it if you need to get out of the car with it then not use it…you have to go back to your car put it in that holster then leave a loaded gun unattended while you deal with whatever you pulled it for…to each his own.

Anyone know of a inside the waistband holster similar to like minotar mtac that has active retention, like a blackhawk has obviously in a different location? So if i roll arond with someone I dont have to worry about it falling out…

what gun?

sometimes i use this style… depending on what im doing and etc. i mostly use this for when my glock is sitting on the night stand or in the glove box, etc, to keep the trigger covered. but i do sometimes use it as an iwb and its not bad, i just prefer my king tuks and crossbreeds over this style.

Ya dont like th soft holsters I want something rigid so its a bit easier to reholster if needed. My brother mentioned one with a retending screw…still no real retention but at least itd be tighter…even one that just needs to be rocked forward would be awesome…

when you say roll around what do you mean? like a fight lol?

unless your in a training class, reholstering is nothing you should be concerned about IMO. when was the last time you had to reholster?

if you shoot someone i doubt youll be worrying about reholstering as cops are going to be taking it anyways.

Yes like a fight

someones sneaking around your property or trying to break in, and you have your gun out and sneak up on them, then they run away, you not going to chase? Attempted burglary isnt a crime you can shoot someone for, That seems like a good place to reholster…or if you think your going to need to us your gun in any other altercation but they dont present that type of threat and you have to do something else you’ll have to reholster.  
Alot of these people won’t just submit when you point a gun at them so if you pull it out and turns out you can’t use it you better be able to reholster quickly and do something else.
