Double stack magazines and tuckable holsters

aikidoka · May 25th, 2008, 01:11 PM

My first post here :)

I may be getting another handgun this year and thinking about moving up form my walther ppk/s to .45 in the 1911 platform. I'm considering the para warthog and comptac mtac holster with a proper belt. The question I have, which is relevant for other double stack magazines, is how to carry at least one extra mag when carrying tucked?

I've read that IWB is uncomfortable for magazines so would in the pocket work and who makes a pouch for that and double stack magazines? I think I also read somewhere about carrying on the ankle.

Thanks,

Mark

Welcome!

Milt Sparks makes a very nice pocket mag carrier (PCH-M) but the waiting is tough.

DeSantis has something called a Mag Packer, made from the same material as their Nemesis pocket holster. Inexpensive and readily available.

Thanks,

Yes Milt Sparks has great leather goods, but the wait is enough to make one cry. lol

Thanks for the Desantis heads up, I wasn't aware of that one, should work perfect if go double stack. :)

TT Gun Leather makes an IWB Mag holder that is very comfortable. I am super happy with mine.

You might take a look at this. I have used it when carrying IWB.
