The weapon I carry doesnt have a safety on it and I keep a round chambered. B/C this only has a trigger guard one side, should I avoid this holster?

No I would recommend this holster for your gun as long as you don't have a large gun to carry. I use these holsters with my g23 and my g42. The g23 is not as comfortable as the g42 which I carry 24/7. I have one for my 1911 and I gave it to a friend with a g21 because the beaver tail safety kept jabbing me in the side. He does like it with hi g21 also.

I carry both a Kahr CW45 (no safety) and a S&W; .380 Bodyguard (safety) using Versacarrys. As long as you install the trigger guard on the correct side, I see no problem carrying one in the pipe, with or without a manual safety.

Yes. I personally would not use this with a chambered round as I don't believe it provides adequate protection.

That's a personal decision. I've used these with Glocks, Kahrs, and M&Ps;, I always carried them with one in the pipe. I couldn't conceive a way that something would make its way into the trigger guard. Just practice with it and make sure you keep your finger indexed until the weapon is clear of your clothing.

A great holster! I forget that I even have a gun in my pocket. There is a rectangular flap of the same material that attaches with velcro and is used to minimize print. I find that I don't even need it.Good luck and GOD bless! And no, it does not cover the safety.

I carry mine on a S&W; M&P40c;, in an IWB holster. I generally can "touch" it on when drawing my weapon. Be sure to set it as far BACK on you weapon as the rail allows, and you can reach it with your trigger or middle finger to turn it on when drawing. I have had NO problems with it turning itself on accidentally, even when re-holstering the weapon.

I don't use a belt and I use a paddle holster for my 38. I suggest you wear snug jeans. do not get me wrong these holsters are made for a belt so use your own discresion. if it does not feel safe to you than it probably is not.

The gun could experience some corrosion if placed directly against the body. I always wear and undershirt with my gun and keep the gun well lubed. The gun will experience some wear to the finish on the holster side as the gun slides on and off the holster, so this is definitely a holster for a full time carry gun intended to be a tool, not a show queen.

I just bought a $20 nylon ambidextrous holster at gander mountain. The key is to make sure, like with all holsters, that it covers your trigger. I believe it was a gun mate.

I would say no because the holster is just enough room for the weapon. However, I can't say conclusively since I've never tried it.

I have never had any issues with that since the hard trigger pull is part of the safety features of the pistol. I carry this setup daily regardless of clothes with 0 issues. It has become my go to gun since the clip makes it effortless even in shorts and a Tshirt. I personally carry the pistol on fire with a round in the chamber in my waistband. I have never had anything come close to getting inside of the trigger guard. I hope this helps. The installation just requires a small punch. The rest is very simple. Please let me know if you have further questions.

As this is an "excellent" form of a safety holster, it is supposed to fit tight you will find. But that is the "safety" part of it. No criminal can just pull it from your holster. Once the revolver is in there, the only way it is designed to come out is with a "straight up" drawing action where you have to pull up hard directly straight up so no one but you can get it out. I suppose someone who had you on the ground could by then you should have shot the bass-turtle before he got that close to your revolver.

My friend, I bought this holster and it's a piece of junk and about as cheap as they come. The clip is plastic and won't grab anything and the holster is flimsy and poorly made. If you're going to conceal carry, DO NOT invest your money in a holster like this that will bind up when you have to draw quickly to defend yourself because a cheaply-made holster is the same as a cheaply-made gun... it could get you killed. Winthrop makes some damn fine holsters that you can buy here for about $50, but if you want cheaper, at least go with a Blackhawk! brand. Hope that helps.

Yes in a manner of speaking but there are better choices for cross draw IMO. My holster is right hand. If I wear it on my left side, or backwards, the pistol is oriented either straight up or at an angle with the butt forward depending on which slots I use. With the butt angled forward it sticks up in my abdomen and is in the way.

I would suggest that you contact the maker of the holster, they are very accommodating, and will be glad to answer your question. They make an excellent product.

No sir, this holster is right hand side only and is not very good, with the material it is made and hangs to low when I have my elite force 1911 in it

It's kind of bulky. Unless the triggerguard is pretty large, it might not fit.

Yes the is a safety, and I do recommend the holster, be carful on the reload it can go off in your face.

Seeing as the holster is designed to be carried as a "pocket holster". I see no draw back to the usage in any way for a south paw shooter. As a small note be sure your left pocket is empty (of course) just a bit of common sense info..

I think it would but I don't care for the design.. Notice the trigger guard is exposed a little to much for my liking. I don't feel secure having that much of the gun out of the holster. Still using the old pocket holster and looking for some thing better, but that is just my opinion.
