Just wanted to say that I've gotten that kangaroo shoulder holster and it works great. It sits under the arm nicely and conceals under any normal fitting shirt.

I just ordered the kangaroo Air Marshall version from deepconceal.com

Hope this works out! It was only $30, so shouldnt be too big of an investment flop.

I have a full size Glock 21SF. It conceals fine on me, YMMV of course but I think it's an acceptable solution for deep concealment as most people will never notice anything under your arm anyway. I do wish the gun sat a little bit deeper in the holser, it seems designed for a slightly shorter barrel, but it covers the trigger guard and the retention strap holds it in nicely. I got the air marshal version as well.

Lucky! You live close, haha. Yeah my frame is about 7.125", i think the 21SFs are like 7.60" at least wikipedia said so. So if yours fits mine should fit I think. I'm excited. I cannot wait to try it out either.

Okay. Kangaroo (AM) holster arrived. Opened it up... I was like, MAN this is way too small my gun wont fit in there. But I put it on, and amazingly my gun fit in the holster! I was like SWEEEEET!! Also, the company sent me a check to pay for the sales Tax. Pretty cool.

Anyways, if you have a full size firearm... I SINCERELY suggest you get this Kangaroo Air Marshall holster. It is not cumbersome like a IWB holster would be for this size of a firearm. I can wear pretty much any dress or tshirt with it. The only shirt I noticed a problem with was a shirt that was made in a way that it fit closely to my ribcage. Okay so I have one shirt I cannot wear it with... big whoop. Oh and not to mention if I decide to wear a jacket then that is just overkill in hiding it... it hides fine with just a regular shirt/dress shirt.

Holster or the CHP?

VA limits the CHP fee to $50, plus I had to take a $40 safety class.

I got the holster from the same place you did.

All depends on your state. You will get much better information on it from the Florida forum.

I am waiting on my cc permit and i looking for deep conceal holsters. I have been reading about the kangaroo holster and found this forum. has anyone out there used this with a Taurus pt 145? if so how did it fit? how was the weight? did the butt of the grip stick out?
Thanks

I have that gun as well and I didn't think I could conceal it. I am 6 foot about 155 lbs so I don't have a lot of options.

I am 5'11" or 6'0", i vary now and then from 158-170lbs... works on me!

yeah im in the same situation... i tuck my shirts in a lot due to my occupation... the kangaroo AM holster is cool. it works well!! i just cant wear anything that is super form fitting to my ribs... other than that, the holster works great... my gun buddies and family when i first tried it on, didnt know i had my firearm on me until i said hey watch this... lifted up my shirt and exposed my firearm...

its only $30!!! well worth it, it is fast shipping and a small investment....

now grant it, it doesnt have the accessability of a IWB or anything. BUT, at least you have something on you...
