As you can tell, I'm pretty new to the site, and I am enjoying the info I have read so far.
I'll be carrying a Springfield 1911 "Champion" Model. (Love .45's)...
I've been looking at holsters and will eventually have an IWB and an OWB.
I think though that I will do mostly IWB for the plain and simple reason is that OWB seems a bit "noticeable", and while that can be a deterrant to bad things, the fact that you are packing openly can draw all sorts of attention to you (good and bad), including the idiot that may actually try to grab it out of your holster.
Okay enough for explanations...my question being...
After doing my homework and research I seem to be down to two models of IWB Holster:
A: The Crossbreed Supertuck Deluxe.
B: The Comp-Tac CTAC.
Now I am not going to ask which one is best because we all have our opinions...:lol:
But one of the things I keep noticing is that "the holsters and weapon seem well concealed" if the shirt is worn "tucked in".
What about if I don't want to wear the shirt tucked in? What problems am I looking at here?...
Sometimes I just wear the shirt out of the pants. I don't wear them tight so I don't see that as a problem.
With these type of holsters, does wearing an "untucked shirt" help to "not conceal" the concealed weapon?
All answers are greatly appreciated!...
Thanks!
Murphy
