Anybody else mount a holster inside leather coat?

I have a heavy Wilson's leather jacket (all black) that I wanted to have an under shoulder holster mounted inside the left side but was wanting it to be super comfortable.

I have an IWB righthand draw "Everyday Holster" that I ordered in all black and ordered in some 1/4" black Chicago Screws and spent a little bit of time experimenting with angle and the results are very nice. The full leather backing is super comfortable agaist the rib cage and the heavy leather jacket is stiff enough to hold the wieght of a fully loaded XD40sc.

All the "screw heads" are either under the arm pit or inside the pocket so you can't see anything.

I will post up some pics later tonight.

Anybody else do something similar?

Put on a white shirt to make things stand out the best way.

My main concern is if the hand gun stays in holster or if it could fall out by you bending over.Is it stiff enough or do you have a retention device of some sort?
