Re: Ruined an IWB holster today.
The supertuck came in yesterday and I've been carrying with it since I got it. It is very comfy so far and should only get better as the horse hide pad wears in. It is by far a better rig than I shot up last week and I like how close it holds the weapon to my body; it is no doubt concealed, even with the shirt tucked in.

Re: Ruined an IWB holster today.
Placed my order this morning for a crossbreed supertuck deluxe with the combat cut. Hopefully I have killed my last paper target while shooting through a holster.

Re: Ruined an IWB holster today.
C-dub, the holster does cover the trigger and safety when the weapon is holstered; the only thing I can figure is the weapon caught on the inside material as I drew, though it's clear the weapon came out far enough for me to swipe the safety off and get on the trigger as I drew. Like I said, time for an IWB upgrade.

Ruined an IWB holster today.
I was off today and the weather was nice, so I decided to do my monthly Range time out back on the property. I carry a PT840 for EDC and brought one of my cheap Uncle Mikes IWB holster out for the plinking fun.
All was going well and I was having a good time, when I decided to work on my point shooting skills. I learned how to point shoot while in the military and still practice it quite a bit just in case i ever find myself in a tight spot where time is life. I had two targets set up at 20 paces and was facing away from the targets and drawing as I turned in on them.
I was on my forth quick draw of tapping two into each target, when I drew and fired, but noticed that something black had flown through the air and fell about 15 paces in front of me. I looked down to realize that my IWB holster had come unclipped from my belt and been drawn with my weapon; the fact I was point shooting and not using the sights, I didn't notice the gun still holstered and fired off two rounds.
The rounds blew out the bottom of the holster and continued on to the target. I couldn't believe what I had just done and thinking about it, I believe it's time to look for a better IWB holster. I have a Black Hawk Tactical Holster that is OWB and works well for winter time carry, but isn't great for hiding a PT840 in the summer time.
You guys have any suggestions for a good IWB holster for the PT840?
