The web site states that it does not have a trigger guard due to the soft material used. Do you think it would protect the trigger enough that i would be able to carry my Glock chambered? It is an interesting option.... I am leaning towards this. Also does it get extremely hot while you are wearing the holster? It says the fabric breaths but i would be curious to know if it causes a lot of discomfort.

I jog and work out with an LCP in a Nemesis pocket holster. It jumps around a little while I jog, but not like it wants to come out of my pocket, just back and forth across my thigh, not up and down. It was kind of wierd the first time I jogged with it, but after a few miles its no biggie. Yet another reason I love my LCP, it doesn't weigh enough to pull down draw string running shorts. :mrgreen: I often jog when I get home from work at 3 or 4 in the morning and it is very comforting to have a pistol that can go with me without weighing me down. Almost as comforting as knowing the sun will be long gone by the time I start my run. :lol:

What's the finish on your 442? As I said above, I've run almost 450 miles with mine, and rust has not been an issue. Mine has the black finish.

Mine is black too. The screw on the handle is where I started noticing rust.

Just bought the 5.11 fanny pack yesterday.

It's plenty big for a Glock 22, and two mags in the main pouch, with what I thought was minimal bulge.

There are two little pockets, but one sits over the barrel (so maybe useless).
But the remaining pocket is large enough for your CCW license and a key.

It seems very sturdy, didn't move about to much. Did some jumping and Karate kicks. Pretty well stayed in place.

There are several companies that make hydration (water) belts to carry water or pouches. They are designed to keep the object you are carrying in close to the body to minimize bouncing and made of a strong mesh to allow airflow. Place your 380 in a plastic ziplock sandwitch bag to keep it dry. Your local running stores normally have a good selection.
