I have 3 uses for them, first if I am in a very cold place with a heavy overcoat, it is easier to get to the pistol than if it was on the belt. Second is in a 3rd world dump and all I have is a pistol if at night something happens I can grab the holster and have the pistol and spare mags with me. When I used to do a lot of protection details. I could stand with my arms cross and the pistol could be in my hand and nobody had a clue. Also when seating in a car or office a lot on these details it was more comfortable, especially in seats of European made cars.
Nailed it. I have Alessi "Bodyguard's" for BHP and 1911's, from when Lou was still with us and ran and worked in his shop.
Basically my take is what Yoni referred to; driving (extended periods), heavy clothing, "grab and go" scenario.
My guess is the naysayers have zip for experience with a quality shoulder rig.
A true "Gun Guy" (or gal) should have familiarity and a modicum of proficiency with most all firearms platforms.
