I have had a long and wounderful relationship with my HS200 (Gen 1). I feel I'm ready to take my relationship to the next level. I am appling for a CCW pemit. Any suggestions on holsters for carring a HS2K?

How's your physical build? Do you want IWB or OWB?

**hower610** · 04-10-2006, 02:31 PM

I'm 5'5" at about 250 lbs. I think an OWB is what I'd want. I'm not to sure on the comfot of an IWB.

Almost the same size at 021411, he should be able to give you some good advice on holsters.

You're damn near the same build as me. I actually don't have a problem with IWB holsters. Unless you get the right OWB or wear the proper clothing you will be printing like a biznitch.

My daily carry is a 1911 so that may be the difference. However I did carry a XD-9 Service in a Comp-Tac CTAC holster. The cant is adjustable so you can play around with different positions. It's not for everyone.
From what many have said, the best OWB on the market right now is an Alessi CQC/S. It hugs really close to the body. You can wear that with an unbuttoned shirt. There are many other holsters to choose from.

I'm sure others will chime in but remember your size and how you dress...

Thanks for the input.

Where is Snoop Dog when you need him. He can translate that shizzle.

I noticed that Snoop always carries a umbrella with him everywhere he goes. I seen him one day and went up and asked him why he's alway got that damn umbrella. He said ......"for drizzle".
