Carry considerations.
I get asked all of the time what the “best” carry pistol, holster, method, etc is. Unfortunately, there isn’t an easy answer.
A couple rules of thumb, carry what you’ll actually carry.
carry HOW you’ll actually carry.
Train with the configuration you choose.
What and how do you carry? Here are some options, all AIWB because that’s the only way I run with my build. I’m 6’9” and wear fitted clothing. haha
This is my fall/winter carry. It’s comfortable. I like full sized guns. If I’m running the full sized grip and light why not be a 34? Black Trident ® makes the most comfortable full sized holster I’ve used.
This has been my carry for the last handful of months. Loving the COA, small enough to carry all day, but I’m not using this mag carrier. Just wanted to show another way to carry a spare mag. I’m using a slimline carry clip like the previous setup.
This was my daily setup for 3 years. Sidecar style either G19 or G34. It’s great. It works. More than I need.
Another killer option. Small G43X setup with the FIELD ETHOS collab, a incog holster and the Snakestaff Systems spare mag carrier. Another awesome setup that’s low profile and has you taken care of.
