How to Use an OWB Holster for Concealed Carry

Поділитися
Вставка
  • Опубліковано 17 сер 2024
  • OWB concealed carry is completely possible, and easier than you'd think. It does, however, take a bit of planning. You have to have the right gear. It also helps to dress a bit around the gun.
    Read more on our website at: aliengearholste...
    Good concealment with an OWB holster depends on a balance of factors. While it's not hard, it does take prudent selection of clothing, a holster, the gun itself, and also understanding how a gun and holster wear on your body. If successful, you may find it even more comfortable than carrying with an IWB.
    The holster must ride high and the belt and tight to the body. In order for clothing to cover up a gun carried outside the waistband, your holster can't protrude too far down from the belt nor stick out too far from your side. That way, minimal clothing is needed to effectively conceal the gun and holster.
    You also need to choose the right gun, though your specific shape and size matters in this regard. A taller person will have an easier time concealing a longer pistol. Therefore, you probably will have a harder time concealing a 1911 or a Glock 17 if you're five and a half feet tall. A relatively skinny person with a relatively low waist line will have a hard time concealing a Sig Sauer P226. Most people will conceal a smaller pistol much more easily.
    You also want to make clothing selections that set you up for success. Untucked shirts can cover a lot of gun, especially if you wear a tall size. A light outer layer, like a flannel shirt, can also hide a lot of gun with judicious placement.
    A vest works well...but is a terrible cliche. That's up to you.
    OWB concealed carry is completely possible, but takes a bit of dialing in. If you pick an appropriate gun, holster and clothing, you'll find it's easier than you'd think.
    Alien Gear Holsters knows about comfortable concealed carry, as our holsters - including our OWB holsters - are designed with specific use in mind. We have multiple models suited to OWB concealed carry should that be how you want to carry your pistol.

    Sorry haters, this is a good video. I wish more companies would take the time to make long videos like this showcasing their products. I'm sick of having a huge box of holsters I bought that just didn't work out. Going to order one of these next payday. My problem is that there are so many options on the Alien Gear website, I'm not sure which one to get.

    They talked me into a Shapeshift OWB holster. And I don't regret it. It came in today after I ordered it last week. I wore it for a couple of hours today and was surprised by the comfortable feeling of the neoprene. Nothing cutting in my love handles and a nice and cool feeling.

Alien Gear is the most progressive thinking and innovative company in the firearm community. Name me 2 other holster companies that have anything near to the Shapeshift modularity, or any other innovative products that they offer.

    Three reasons I, like Nate, like to carry with a shoulder holster. First, it is comfortable and I can carry it all day long. Second, I can easily cover it with any open light jacket, button down shirt, etc. In the summer, I wear a colored t-shirt with a snap western shirt over it. I can leave the shirt open in most scenarios but if there's a situation where I need to be sure not to show my gun or just need to look more civilized, I can snap the shirt which is very easy to open if I need quick access to my gun. Third, and last, the best reason for a shoulder holster is that I don't always have a belt on. In fact, I don't always have pants on (I know TMI) but I always have my shoulders everywhere I go.

    • @Aliengearholsters

    I only use OWB holsters for open carry. I like Fobus personally. My first holster was an Alien Gear IWB with belt clips for Shield 9. Used it for maybe 8 moths but was just too big. I purchased a Ruger LCP2 which comes with the pocket holster. It is nice warm weather carry and a backup in some instances I pocket carry it sometimes but most of the time I tuck it in may waist between my shorts/pants and my underwear at 4 o'clock. I figured I would get a similar pocket style for the Shield. I ended up with a Sticky holster for it and love it. Stays in place nicely also at 4 o'clock unless you are doing acrobatics.

    Aspects to a good holster:
    * Firearm retention - the weapon does not slip out of the holster
    * Holster retention - the holster stays where you put it
    * Prevents Negligent Discharge - Trigger Guard and trigger is covered completely
    * Easy to reholster - More for the range training
    * Concealment - The best holster is garbage if people know you're packing
    * Number Two - how easy / convenient / QUIET is the holster when you have to go number two at work?

    I had the 3.0 and thought it was great.. Then I bought the 4.0 and it was an improvement. It's slightly smaller, and has a better backing. It's sooo comfortable, I forget it's on. I also have the 4.0 ankle holster. IF you have bigger ankles.. then it's probably not a great fit. I have not tried the shoulder holster yet. I do have a G&G Shoulder Holster and a Galco Miami Classic for my smaller guns and they are nice, but the great thing about the Alien Gear one, is the stretchable belt hooks. You definitely need those belt straps because when sitting, the shoulder holsters will ride up to your neck. Sitting and standing in a shoulder holster will shift it's position. Those back straps will most likely keep it positioned correctly. Every time I climb out of my car I have to re-position my shoulder holster and move it back down my back away from my neck. The G&G is a pain. The Galco is better with a smaller gun. Ill have to order the Alien Gear and try it out. Great video. You guys are kind of normal size. You obviously don't have "DAD Bods".... Things are a little different the heavier you are.

    Don’t get me wrong, I have an older model Alien Gear IWB holster and it works well, but their new shapeshifter owb prints like crazy compared to many other brands! I bought one and was so excited to finally have one for my Sig P365 and was quickly shocked to see how much printing was done with it! Bought a Vedder Lightdraw owb and the print is completely nonexistent!

    A comment or two down someone is concerned about having a box of holsters. Its a positive indication you're still thinking-styles change, the body changes, and the gun changes. Having some holsers at hand will give you options. If none of the choices is satisfactory you buy another holster. At least you now know what doesn't work and why. Don't know anyone that throws away old holsters.

    Nice holsters but neither one of these will work on a 90-100 degree day and you want to wear a tee shirt and elastic band shorts or any exercise clothing, which millions of people do.

    I love my shapeshift holster kit. Love the idea of a modular multi type system. My only gripe is that it seems to be only for "stock" guns. I'm already thinking of putting lights and red dots on my firearms so might have been all-for-not.

    • @Aliengearholsters
      @Aliengearholsters  4 роки тому +1

      Unfortunately, Shapeshift is not compatible with any form of attachments at this time. Due to the injection molding, it can be difficult to mold for it accurately while still keeping the overall shell durable. We do realize here that a good majority of our audience has some sort of light or laser on their firearm. Keeping that in mind, we may expand our options in the future as we continue to create further variety with our Shift shells.

    Hi guys, First, what brand is the Flannel shirt? I like the lower pockets. Also sorry guys. After needing to professionally CCF for almost 40 years I can tell you, many Law enforcement agencies now forbid ankle carry. This because if you get into a fight and end up on the ground fighting, frequently your gun will present itself to the bad guy. After spending much more than an embarrassing amount on holsters, one of the best I have found and worn is the Fobus paddle. Its inexpensive, easy on /easy off & wears close to the body. When you need to remove your gun in certain locations (interview rooms) and secure it, you do not need to handle it outside of the holster. Regarding IWB I know it is popular in some circles, however I personally find it uncomfortable and cant justify a second set of pants just to have a wider waistband for when doing IWB. I find modular types nothing but a compromise and some of the holsters in the video just plain bulky. Good luck and keep trying to come up with the perfect holster, if you do I will probably buy it.
