IWB with a Milt Sparks VMII and that hammer thingy pulled back with the safety pushed up - or was that down???? Hang on I'll go pull the trigger and see what happens. Be back shortly.

Commander always in .45
IWB in a Kramer
OWB in a Galco combat master, want to try a steep cant Concealable belt holster. I haven't found one to play with yet.
Also carry in a couple of different vests. I have found this to be a very comfortable option.

Oh Yeah... Hammer back and flipper up baby. Always #1 anything else is asking for trouble.

Like Primo.... This:



Dan Wesson CCO, cocked and locked in a Lane Spier IWB holster. I also take advantage of a pair of PERRY brand suspenders. They are 1-1/2" wide, with plastic clips for your belt instead of alligigigator jaws. Three points of contact. Hold up my pants like nothing else I've worn. Inexpensive too. Walmart and "work clothing" stores carry them.

Forgot to add... Esmeralda slim grips on the CCO. takes about 1/4" of thickness off the handle thingy just below the power switch. OOPS! Power switch is on the other side of the gun. The Handle Thingy is right behind the bullet ejector thing in this picture.

Condition 1 in VM2 (IWB) or 5 Shot Leather SAP (OWB). Both excellent quality and very comfortable. If I'm carrying my Sig P238 it's cocked and locked in a DeSantis Super Fly pocket holster.

Mike, love your suspenders idea. Will have to give them a try. Thx.

I carry Condition 1 in an OWB holster by Lane with whatever I happen to carry, Compact, Mid Size or Full size!!! If a tux or suit is required I carry in a Galco Miami Classic shoulder holster!!!
