Thanks on the doggie. We have a corgie who is the "bark" and he is the GSD is the "bite" (really, he's a stinkin woose but if someone messed with the lady of the house, who knows what he's capeable of).
Some manufacturers such as The Beltman use two layers of leather and cross the grains. You know how plywood is strong because it's lots of layers? Same idea. Each strip of leather has a natural "grain" to it like that of wood. Attach them and you get great vertical and horizontal stability. Whatever the method employed in the manufacturing process, what you should look for in a gun belt is rigidity. A "normal" belt may very well sag over time under the weight of your handgun. A "gun belt" is made to hold that weight without deforming and still keep your pants from falling down!

If you want to look into the subject, try a search on "gun belt" and you should find many threads about them. I'm looking into The Beltman myself, but there are lots of manufacturers out there to choose from. Happy shopping!

Is that a rifle in your pants, or are you happy to see me?

Whew, wonder if he has to explain the stiff legged walk.

Yes, a gun is a weapon. But the danger comes from the mind attached to the trigger finger.

For concealed carry, I've found few holsters that compare to Milt Sparks Versa Max II or Summer Special...

Here are a couple of my favorites...

Smith and Wesson 29-2 Nickel 4" (a gift from my Dad) wearing Craig Spegel Boot Grips, Bowen Lanyard and Les Baer Thunder Ranch Special wearing Ivory Slim-line grips...both live in Milt Sparks VM2's:


S&W 29-2 and 29-5, both 4" with Spegel Boot Grips and Bowen Lanyard Rings...Milt Sparks VM2 and Summer Special

I have seen a lot of differ styles here. But I'm still not sure which one would be the best for my G22. Wearing a shirt or sweat shirt isn't the problem, it's wearing dress shirts is where I need some help. Any ideas would be helpful.
Thanks.

give mark at Crossbreed a try....I routinely wear a tucked in button down shirt with dockers for work. no one is the wiser. the supertuck is extremely comfy and I carry a full size M&P .40 all day. It's been the one for me! You won't find a company with better customer service or that let you try it out for 2 weeks and return it for ANY reason if you don't like it. Good guy, good company, good product....you can't go wrong with it!

Wow, nice rig. I am looking for a IWB for my G26 and am thinking of going with a High Noon Split Decision for now. Who made that one for you?

No this is not my normal carry method or load out, but considering that I am 5'9" and 155. I can successfully carry all this.

Glock 22 in IWB
PF-9 in IWB
and did you notice the 3rd gun P3AT

The first one is without tucking

the other three are various views after tucking.


Oh and the yellow sticker is because I have .40 and a 9mm Glocks so I don't want to mix up mags if in a hurry. Yellow on the .40 and white on the 9mm.

And right after that picture I went on a little trip to the grocery store. No one noticed. It was also actually quite comfortable other than the PF-9 digging in a bit while I drove.

Comp-tac IWB's on a Beltman belt and a kydex pocket holster for the P3AT.
