Appendix Carry vs Strong Side

- Which carry position do you prefer? Is there a right and wrong answer? Of course, everyone will have an opinion on this, and many of those opinions will carry zero data to support anything they say. But that's the beauty of America, every asshole can have an opinion.
And to state my opinion, there is no right answer. Situations, your training, weather, comfort, vehicles......many considerations will determine what the best carry option is for you in any given situation.

I don't think there can be one right answer for the same reason there is no one perfect gun. I daily carry appendix. I carry strong side when comfort is priority over concealment. Solid points on the dynamic nature of a real life encounter. No matter how you do it, the guy who trains to be dynamic will almost always be faster and more effective than the guy who doesn't.
I figured you were a shoulder holster guy
@@1911syndicate k well the first comment was a diversion. Thanks for ruining that
Good: very informative. Great information. Subscribed. The Bad: I've been going back and forth from appendix to strong side for about a year without being able to make a decision what is best for me. This just made it worse. 😭
Haha. Different things for different situations, it's the age old truth
1911 Syndicate Do you see any value in someone using both positions occasionally? I've heard it's better to stick with one position but what are your thought?
@@timhigh5962 As long as you get some reps in with each carry position. Both are great depending on the situation
1911 Syndicate Thank you. Great channel
Attire also plays a part in where you carry. Shirt tucked in with jacket = 4 o’clock. Untucked fitted shirt = appendix.
I tend to be a strong side carrier. I have tried appendix but it tends to be uncomfortable and hard to get used to. I use it on occasion when the setting warrants appendix. The 2 biggest advantages to appendix carry is concealment is easier, and the draw in a given situation “tends to be quicker”. This is all subjective. The video does shed light on some truth. Despite appendix carrying having many advantages, there are some deadly disadvantages. It’s all preference and there is no holy grail for carrying. Great video!

I literally just commented the same thing lmao
Only reason with appendix is accidents happens if it happens on appendix you won't have a family
This is just a question because I dealt with this same thing in real life you would fight a guy with your firearm on you person? Would you not be afraid of loosing possession of your gun during a fight?
Extremely informative. Whether appendix is better or not, as a small slim woman, my body shape does not do well with the gun there. So I carry my Shield at 4:30 with as much cant as my holster will allow.
Sweet Jitsu garage set up man
Wow great content, literally saving lives. I'm seriously going to change my style of carry now!
I wouldn't necessarily change anything, but it is worth considering pros and cons. Appendix makes sense (in the right situations). Strong side makes sense (in the right situations). There's no perfect answer
with very little printing if any.organic shape& fluid draw.....for my body..looking easy on & off OWB withyet as as jacked up as possible + some other issues in the same shoulder area)doesn't exist I'm making my own.on #3 & getting close it's evolving into a unconventional get True dat.you have work what works for you..the holster& draw I want(and need because of a collar bone that broke& healed as
Tablet is jumbling my words up...dk why...?.
Cross draw seems to have so many benefits including drawing a concealed weapon going unnoticed and in prone or seated positions, if you look at real situations of conflict that's important because most situations I've seen were not brawls but instead people waiting for the right opportunity or drawing immediately when seeing a threat. If you have a gun on display like police strong side seems to be the way to go
Just do what I do. Both. At the same time. OWB strong side, minimalist IWB appendix. Then you have options. 👍🏻
Greate content. Another thing to consider for both styles of carry are injuries. I am a lefty and normally carry strong side but I have a nagging left shoulder injury that aches when I reach backward for my piece. Appendix carry eliminates that deep backward movement of my shoulder and lessens the pain. So I have been considering adjusting to AIWB carry.
If you don't carry a pistol at least a OC Spray.
I like carrying strong side because so many thugs carry appendix i feel like a thug and dont want people thinking of a thug when im drawing from appendix
This is a must-save video. Thanknyou for sharing your expertise
Happy we could help
Please do not read as though it is coming from a harsh tone - my tone is very casual "tea time" and based on two decades of gunslinging on The Job.
Dude - you're left-handed and doing a left-handed draw from the crotch, not an actual cross-draw. Flip it.
Buy (or use) a left hand holster, and sling it to *right-side* of your belt buckle. Then do a true left-hand low-tuck, cross draw and fire. Frankly, it is like grabbing and pointing your junk... "Point and piss" if you will... In close, it works.
@ 2:00 - Beardly dude hammers in on the basic level body movements for a *right-hand* cross draw that I am alluding to. (And then he suddenly goes Ninja, and shows up quickly armed and ready! 🤣 Camera angle.)
But, I digress.
*Keep your elbows in!!!*
Reach, draw, tuck and trigger - fast. You're in close body contact - it ain't about trigger control at that point... It's about pumping rounds into the body as fast as you can, and then making distance.
If you can't reach around your back with your non-dominant hand to grab your firearm you should do some more exercises. Let's see you perform a non dominant hand appendix carry draw with only one hand
This is the kind of point no one likes to talk about. Not to mention i find it more comfortable to sit down with my gun in the 4 o'clock position vs appendix position. I almost can't sit down with appendix position at all. Idk how people do it.
What about the old femoral artery topic for AIWB?
Great debate
The best is hip gun conceal
That Z in the background though 😍 Can't tell if it's a 350 or a 370
🤷🏼♂️
But all the cool guys on yt carry appendix
My main beef with appendix: an accidental discharge and forget about having biological kids ;)
Kids suck anyway
Lol man that was main concern being it’s my first gun a Taurus g2c 9mm the trigger pull is heavy it takes effort to shoot that gun which is what I like my holster covers the trigger so it’s literally impossible for the Gun to go off
Not to mention you'd have to pee straight into a bag for the rest of your life and no more sex depending how you get shot. Fuuuuuck that.
Hmmm.thx.
Great video.
Thanks!
First rule of gun safety, never point a gun at anything you are NOT willing to destroy or kill. That applies to my junk. I see no reason to carry appendix.
Until you have to go to work. And tuck in a shirt. Or wear a fitted shirt with dress pants. Or wear a heavier jacket or coat in colder weather, and have a bitch of a time drawing string-side. Or, when you need to draw QUICK from sitting in your car during an attempted carjacking. Trust me, I use to think the same as you.
@@THINKforYOURSELFinsteadLiterally just about everything you mentioned as “what if” is not a problem carrying strong side.
So which was better?
Depends on you and circumstance
before the liveleak website went down there were numerous videos of off duty Brazilian cops that took down armed robbers appendix carry and like bro said and from what i seen they would either strong arm or act innocent and turn around just fast enough to draw that gun,in my opinion accidents happen but i feel like you need to find what works for you and not what someone else is telling you.
Cool comment, but please use commas next time because at some point it was hard to understand you.
@@carabinapacifista5627does a comma really stop you from reading properly?is it a magical forcefield that makes you not comprehend a sentence?
That carbon z in the background is sick! Needs the doors and fenders swapped.
Please make a riverboat gambler carry.
It's called a garter belt
What is a riverboat gambler carry?
Skin tight shorts? Yep, a fellow democrat
I'm knocking dude out before I grab my firearm.
