Where do you carry IWB?

At what clock position do you place your IWB holster for most comfort and/or easy of draw?

With a Sparks I place it right behind my hipbone...probably 3:30.

My Kahr MK9 is short enough for comfortable appendix carry (say, 1:30-ish) if I'm wearing an untucked shirt or a sweater over a shirt. If I have a tucked-in shirt and a jacket, I carry it at about 4-4:30.

VM-II at about 1630 to get the grip against my back so it doesn't print as badly.

Ditto,

Same with the ComTac, and others... 3:30 works for me...

3:30 to 4:00. I'm interested in appendix carry, but haven't tried it yet.

Yeah---3:30 or four o'clock. G27 in an Uncle Mike's nylon holster with clip. I've also used this IWB S.O.B. style, but not comfortable at all.

I ordered a custom tuckable for appendix carry. It will have a reverse/negative FBI cant and will have the clip offset from the gun to keep it a bit thinner. I'm not sure how comfortable this will be sitting, but I think I can position it so it will be. I just hope I don't shoot my nuts off.

Fist k-8 kydex at 1:30 (appendix carry)

Morintp, Appendix carry is more to the right of your "nuts" shouldn't be a problem but watch out for your femoral artery.

It really depends on the holster brand you have (I think). Example, my VMII fits well at 3:30. While my Sparks SSII is more comfortable at 4:30.
