So it's a fashion statement. Cool.
zacly.
Freedom is cool, man. Ha.
Don't worry, though, if I'm carrying payroll there'll be a smokewagon up inat biatch.
No problem. Most gun nuts are just in it for the fashion statement.
That shows how little you know about firearms or those who carry them on a daily basis. A holster isn't a "fashion statement", it's the most important accessory you need to safely carry. Only an idiot, a Chicago street thug, or a Mexican would simply stick a pistol in their pocket or tuck it in the belt, sans holster.
The purpose of a holster is not only to protect your weapon against dirt, dust, sweat, and rust, but to protect yourself and everyone around you from accidentally being shot. I went through ten different holsters before I decided on the one I'm using: It's very concealable, even in the Summer with a light shirt. It has plenty of retention, so the pistol can't accidentally fall out or be grabbed from behind.
It also keeps the muzzle pointed in a safe direction, at about 10 degrees toward the ground behind me, away from the leg and the femoral artery. The worst thing you can do is tuck a pistol in your belt or use any holster that points the muzzle at the inside of the leg. Shoot yourself in the femoral artery, and you're basically fucked. Without a tourniquet, you'll bleed out and die withing minutes.
