is this a good way to carry a gun while running? Would the gun move up and down a lot?

I've seen youtube video reviews, and a woman using them for running turned the shorts around so she carried in front; her weapon seemed more secure while running. When she carried it in back, she felt more movement, although the weapon was never in danger of becoming dislodged. It was more of where it felt the most snug. Either way, it has been used for running. I am buying a pair for that purpose for my S&W; Shield.

I've not tried running with it, but for general town activities, getting in and out of the car, shopping, walking, etc., it stays snugly in place.

I haven't tried this while running. It is true that as the bottle empties, it becomes less rigid, and i've occasionally used a finger from my other hand to balance the bottle. However, the top flips open like other plastic bottles, and it has two other lovely features: Attached to your belt, it won't bang against your thigh like metal bottles and can, when empty, be rolled up and stored in your pocket with the carabiner.

Not if you keep it in a controlled environment, ie., AC and heat! If you are comfortable, the gun vault is good!

Yes! There's a little slideable shoe which the gun sits on and this can be moved forwards or backwards. It's a neat unit.

In my holster, it seems as though there are two levels of "grip". If you push the gun in as hard and far as it will go, it is a bit tight removing it. But I find that if I don't push it quite so far down it still maintains retention, but comes out a bit easier, without giving me the feeling it will fall out. I probably would not jog with it unless pushed down all the way.

I guess so. This has been great to use while I run, but it does take some getting used to.

It's how you position the weapon, it's possible to position it incorrectly and get in the way but I did not have a problem with it. It works well for me

Yes - but it takes up some space. If you are carrying more than one gun - take it out.

It has a screw to adjust how loose or tight the gun is in the holster. I know when I was adjusting it for me it got very tight. So yes it will stay in while running if adjusted properly

I run with it,full sprint. It's not really made for it,the pocket weights ,two to be exact,came out while running.Im 5'7,125 lbs,sweat like champ with it on,which isnt totally bad . Mild jogging is applicable with the vest though.

I've used it to run building clearing practice, quite a bit of running, kneeling, climbing, holds very tight and secure... it's a well made holster able to adapt to quite a range of firearm sizes as well, I've used it for both a Glock 20 and an S&W 9mm. Reminds me of the tactical holster I used for CQB Marine corps!

This one is too heavy and bulky for running with, in my opinion. I should get one that is much smaller and lighter than this. It would bounce around and drive you crazy.

Not really. It's good for walking on an incline but I'd look around for a better one. This one seems to be weak in the rear for running.

I think you would be happy the way stays looped thru your belt. It's easy to pull it if the situation arises. I think you will like the way it sits on your hip . thanks and good luck and good riding.

I wore this vest for an extended period with rifle mags in the long pouches, a full frame handgun in the pistol holster, and pistol mags in their respective pouches. After adjusting the shoulder straps and belt straps for a snug fit, I didn't notice much movement at all. It will all depend on how well you fit the vest to yourself (it's fully adjustable), as well as what equipment you are carrying, but I don't see a lot of noise issues for myself. I should also point out that I was wearing BDUs with elbow and knee pads and a ghillie shawl if that helps.

You can adjust it on the side. It's should be snug so it moves with you. I run with mine on if it was lose that would be annoying. I'm 6' 210 lbs n I wear a lg. so I would think the med should be good for you. Hope this helps.

For me it carries a choice of 3 weapons very comfortably and with good balance. I'd prefer the carry strap. If attached to anything else, it would be awkward to deploy quickly.
