I totally missed the original question in my other response.

I carry a Kimber Ultra CDP II, which is essentially the same size, one of two ways. Depending on attire and where I have to be that day, I use a Milt Sparks VMII or a Bear Claw kydex IWB with a clip. Both excellent holsters but the VMII is certainly more comfortable for all day wear.

I carry cocked and locked. If you aren't comfortable with that, you might consider a j-frame or a DAO pistol. It takes no more than a couple days to get used to C & L, if it's on your mind at all. Maybe carry it that way around the house for a while or just on short outings until you feel comfortable. Regardless of your mode or weapon... practice and training.

God Bless,

With no disrespect intended- It's the unknowns I worry about. I doubt very many people thought they would be a victim that day... if we could see the future, we would avoid the danger and none of us would need to carry or even own a firearm for defensive purposes.

Between shock & surprise, nerves, adrenaline and a probable loss of fine motor skills, getting from cond. 2 to shots off in a hurry is a high odds bet.

Returning to cond. 2 after a "scare" repeatedly, is an additional and IMO, unnecessary N.D. risk.


Just rambling thoughts from an average guy.
