Anyone using this? Have a buddy that says it works pretty well. Any other input?
I have a Sig 229 as my carry gun. Thanks,Rob ETA-Clip draw not quick draw...sorry |

I don't think I'd ever want to carry one like that, but I've seen them on a bunch of pistols.
I actually saw some of the more interesting ones at the Texas Rangers' Museum here in San Antonio. There are some seriously old school 1911s with those on them - some with pretty engraving too. Apparently it was something of a practice for them to carry them at half-cock, appendix carry, with a clip on it. One guy even wrapped the grip safety to disable it. I'd not want one though - I like to have the trigger covered. bob |

Me personally I would never carry with a clip draw and a round in the chamber since there's no protection of the trigger. That being said, I've contemplated a clip draw before, but again, I personally wouldn't carry with a loaded chamber. Yup, without your trigger protected, I see the FAIL in that. |

get a good, quality, form fitting holster that: properly and securely covers the trigger guard area and allows for one handed reholstering/one hand drills i would pass on the clip draw on ANY handgun (yes, i've tried it––G26)....YMMV Thanks for the sound advice. I am going to spend the money on something nice and leathery... The thought of explaining why I shot myself in the leg is worth the cost of the holster alone. I have been looking at some of those drills online and will practice them as soon as I get this new holster. Thanks again. Rob |

Works great on my .357. I wouldn't carry with it on a gun that doesn't have a fairly strong 1st trigger pull. http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y32/Redstonew/SP101.jpg Nice rig!! I have been thinking of getting back to something just like that. I just love that .357 MAG!!!! My Sig is too heavy I think. Thanks for the pic!! Rob |

Clip-Draw is a NO-GO for serious carry of a defensive sidearm, in my opinion. |
