A shoulder carry rig is not that much different than a cross draw from the hip. Strong side IWB or OWB is safest manner to CCW. IMHO.

Cannon didn't need a gun. He'd just hit 'em with his belly.

Just as another option, if your looking for a hybrid holster, with a 2 day turnaround and <70 dollar price tag, check out Theiss Holsters. He made me a hybrid horsehide for 45 bucks, and a week turnaround time. Granted, I asked him to make it with some of his blemished horsehide, and there is one tiny dime sized discoloration. It goes IWB, so I could care less. I pack with a smile everyday.

No problem at all. Tommy was a great guy to deal with too ... super super easy and quick turnaround.
