Well I went for a test run OC and it went very well. People noticed but didn't seem to care which was nice. I went to a 24 hr walmart to look for a conceal holster to hold me over till I can get a better one and used my bianchi 3x-retension holster I used as a security guard cause it has a nice crevice for my jacket to go and keep it clearly viable. Anyhow, after getting the new holster went to a Denny's and didn't turn one head :). All in all i'll probably OC more than I initially thought. So far the only issue is that my bianchi is made for a duty belt not a leather normal dress belt so i need to find a much thinner duty belt that will fit my belt loops(my old duty belt is 2.25 in lol). Unless someone can suggest a leather belt brand that can withstand the weight and not stretch it out.

Blackhawk makes several SERPA holsters that are adjustable for different style belts. They are widely available (your local Gander Mountain will stock them, as well as many mom and pop gun shops) Blackhawk holsters are nice because they offer adjustable cants, and a locking feature which will secure the gun into the holster.

If you wanted to go the laser route, look at Viridian. http://www.viridiangreenlaser.com/catalog/index.php?cPath=22 They offer custom fit laser sights with Tacloc Serpa holsters. Have one for one of my carry pieces, and love it.

If you decide to go IWB, I recommend http://www.clevelandsholsters.com/ or http://buffaloholstercompany.blogspot.com/2010/07/holsters-belts-magazine-holders-and.html?spref=gb

Both are active members here on the forums, and both offer products made locally in our great state of WI.

Carry safe.

People are so engulfed in their own world, they aren't paying attention to things around them. OC is pretty much a nonissue. :banana:
