Tucker Sharkbite Holster

Tucker has a new Appendix In The Waistband Holster called a Sharkbite. Interesting looking. Has anyone seen one of these in person or purchased one yet?

Is this it? Looks interesting, but I'm waaaaay too fat for appendix carry.

Here it is.



Anyone seen one in person or wear one yet? Comments? It looks like it would work well with smaller guns, not so much with the Government Model as pictured.

I've never owned a Tucker, but I've never heard anything but good about their quality. Given that, I'll assume that the snakebite is up to their normal high standards. The question then becomes yea or nay for you on appendix carry. It simply doesn't work for me personally, but YMMV.

I'm not a fan of appendix carry, either, but this one WORKS!
Sure, the 1911, with it's big, long grip is not my first choice for AIWB carry, but we wanted to show it with a "big gun."

The holster is incredibly stable and the belt clips are nowhere near the gun itself. The profile is very smooth inside the waistband.
It also works as a crossdraw IWB worn weak side in front of the hip.

We're looking to further develop what customers want for AIWB so, this isn't cast in stone for all time. Just don't judge it after one quick look.
We'll get feedback and tweak as necessary once people have worn it for a while.

Note: There is a hybrid version also, The Sharkbite KDX:

Not sure I would want it with negative cant rather than straight drop..

Any picture with it being worn somewhere from 12 to 1400?
