Looking at your avatar formalwear would be a little black dress!!LOL
The shoulder holster would scream FBI with that!!
With a suit I would prefer IWB tuckable that way you could remove the jacket if needed!

I have a custom Ted Blocker shoulder rig for my G23. They do serve their purposes. I have always found the biggest drawback is that when you want to take your jacket off, you can't.

You get what you pay for. Look for wide straps over the shoulder. This will help spread out the weight of the gun. Cheap rigs will be narrow and really bite into the shoulder if yo are wearing it all day.

Another vote for the Under Armor from High Noon. Best $69 you will ever spend!
I find it perfect for my RAMI and full sized CZs /Witness 10mm.

I think a shoulder rig is better for women in many regards, because most IWB set ups are not comfortable for women. I imagine it's gotta be more comfortable than having the butt of a gun digging into your liver with an IWB worn at 3:00 - 4:30.

Just be careful with a shoulder rig.

I have a Jackass from Galco to but I don't wear it do to some of the negatives in a shoulder rig.

Unless you blade way from your intended target. If you need to pull your gun you could end up sweeping alot of innocent bystanders. High stress if you shoot one thats not good.

Also, any system you have you should practice with not only drawing but actually shooting. I don't know of many ranges that allow you to practice with a shoulder rig actually drawing and shooting the gun.

It does require a new skill set, and also in a struggle presents a good option for somebody ontop of you to easily access your gun.

I have a Don Hume shoulder rig that I bought years ago.
It's great for long road trips or when we go on ATV outings deep into the forest.
I always revert to an IWB or pancake holster for everything else.

The High Noon holster is tempting but they only offer 1911s HAMMER DOWN.

The "best" among the mass produced shoulder holsters perhaps. But Alessi, Bulman and other shops make a better product.
