Trust me... Whataburger can't carry Christie's jockey shorts.glbedd53 wrote:I thought about shoulder holsters but it didn't seem like the way to go in the summer, 2 shirts and how do you get it out quick enough. I carry a Colt stainless Officer ACP. As for burgers, Whataburger had to add another delivery truck every day to feed me already. I guess it all must go out the other end.
Of course it hasn't gotten hot yet, but on warmer days so far (mid 70º temps), a t-shirt under the harness, and a fishing vest over it have concealed it quite well, and it has been comfortable. And it is quite possible to deploy a small 1911 from a shoulder holster quickly. Check out THIS THREAD put together by LT and flintknapper. It is very informative. As I said, I carry a 3" stainless Kimber in mine, and it works just fine.
I think that what you're going to find, in general, is that no single holster is going to serve all your needs, all the time. That seems to be a very common experience. And sooner or later you're going to wind up with at least a couple of holsters that you no longer wear because you found something better, or your dress requirements and clothing style change, or like me you get a bad back, or whatever.
