I have been concealed carrying around the house since I purchased my G19 in October after I turned 21 and have been trying to decide what position I will be carrying once I have my LTC. I've noticed I've moved my holster around a few times trying to decide where I feel most comfortable; from SOB, to 3 o'clock and now back and forth between 3 o'clock and appendix. My question is how did y'all decide where to carry and make the determination of what was most comfortable? I have always been told you'll never be comfortable carrying a firearm in any position at first, but was curious how long it took y'all to decide if that was the 'right' spot for the job or not. My current setup is a G19 with a CYA gun-molded IWB holster and a Blackhawk universal double stack mag holster that I flip belt clip out to carry my mag close to my body. May move to something like a T-Rex Arms or something if I decide to carry appendix.
Also, I know it's pretty much pointless to carry without a round in the chamber (IMO-its a paperweight if you need it quickly and ready), but for some reason I have some anxiety that I could accidentally shoot myself or discharge while holstering if something catches my trigger like my shirt or something on the holster without realizing it is in the way. I will occasionally carry a round in the chamber, but it's normally when I am carrying 3'o clock IWB or in my OWB holster and while at the range. Anyone else have this anxiety at first? How'd you overcome it? I am confident in my own gun safety practice while carrying and do exercise caution while holstering, but it's kinda just the thought that I've got something that fires a projectile at around 1500 ft./s pointing towards my body that I am just not used to yet...especially when I'm carrying appendix with a firearm pointed at my...appendages. Any advice?
Thanks
