Hi there everybody, I am new to the board and from Ohio. I have open carried a few times lately and have had some annoyance with a hip holster making my pants or shorts fall down! I had it strapped directly to my belt and while it works, it doesn't work well. I bought a drop leg holster off amazon to try out, and I absolutely HATE that thing. It retains the gun acceptably, but it just flops all around when you're walking around. I used to play airsoft as a kid and I dug out my old 'tactical' vest I had for that and pulled the belt out of it. It's a rather beefy nylon belt and I used one of the horizontal mag pouches attached to it to help keep my holster in a set position (The holster is molle compatible and so it has sort of long straps on it to fit through the 'webbing.') To get the buckle around the holster I had to remove my extra mag from the mag holder built in to the holster, but since the belt has two mag holders on itself, I used the second one to put my mag in. I'm posting some pictures so you guys can see my handywork and let me know what you think. I tried it out for a couple minutes after I concocted this idea and my pants no longer fall down which is great, and the firearm is secured extremely firmly to me so I think I could even run comfortably wearing this.
Let me know what you guys think!
