    I didn't catch this reference my first pass thru this thread. But it's funny. That episode is what crossed my mind as I had been notionalizing this carry method over the last several days.

    I can remember that scene as though I saw it yesterday. It was frightening how quick he drew and fired the pistol.

    Yeah. I found it on Youtube.... where someone broke it down in slow motion several times. Very cool.

    I am another one who harbors fear of the femoral. I purchased one of these

    http://www.concealmentconcepts.com/cellpagerpal.html

    It uses the natural pocket between your body and leg and conceals well. Your shirt can be tucked in. Comfortable sitting and walking around with a HK p7M8. But I found that getting the thing out was a non starter unless you wanted to distract someone as if you were playing with yourself before pulling a handgun. Im back at 3-4 oclock and butt packs.

    First off hi ive been a lurker for a while but i believe this is my first post.

    I have been flirting with appendix carry lately as well. I am 5'11 and about 175 lbs. I have had generally good results with a Wilson Featherweight holster (sort of adjustable cant) except that the holster is designed for IWB and sits rather low. The one gripe I have is that I carry a full size 1911 in 10mm and if I sit on a hard surface or in a hard wooden chair I get a rather uncomfortable testicle squeeze. I really like this holster though and may switch to a commander (though I dont trust commanders in 10mm).

    Just a little of my experience.

    Appendix carry really appeals to me because it sounds like it would be easier for a slim guy like myself. But I was wondering what belt you guys run, I have a Frequent Flyer and 5 Stitch but was hoping to find more of a business casual belt.

    Also, for you guys running the Comp-Tac Two O'Clock hoster how does the belt clip work for you? I don't think I'm a big fan of belt clips and would probably prefer a closed loop.

    Unless you get a tuckable AIWB, the belt's appearance is a non-issue since this mode of carry requires an untucked shirt for concealment. No one will ever see the belt.

    I wear a rigger's belt that is a bit oversized, does the Looper have enough room for a double run of a belt to go through it?

    NB -- Not in standard configuration, but I'm certain if you tell Rich at CCC you need that capability, he can do it easily enough.
