That means the other half of the time...you've been wrong...right?

Wrong?
Right.

Exactly.

Huh?

This particular CC vest was one, if not
the very first, for dedicated CC use that
went on the civilian market.

A sheriff's deputy in eastern KY designed
the vest and his wifie hand made them,
he went to gun shows and sold them. Mine,
which I am proud to say, still looks great,
wears good and does it job in CCing. I think
I paid around $40 for it back when they were
first sold. Also, a larger manufacturer bought
him out.

If I were a BG which would I shoot first... the fanny packer or the vest guys? Difficult question.

Well I'll be dipped in goo. The vest is here. Whatever else you might say the turn around was quick! The vest aint bad. Walked around all day with the P3AT pretty nice but carrying it was never an issue. I will try it with the XD as soon as possible. Nicely mad cool vented system. I like it .

P3AT goes pretty well in a pocket. My wife carries hers in her front jeans pocket. I had to ask her after I hugged her the other day "is that a pistol in your pocket, or......."

XDC .45 in vest with one magazine.

The 45 does print a bit.

The Vest open

Here it is up close

I need to keep the vest snapped for this to work and I haven't loaded this thing yet so it will be somewhat heavier.
