I have a bum shoulder which probably wont get any better soon, ( I'm 65 YO) and this prevents me from using something like a Crossbreed type inside the pants holster back around the 4-5 O'clock spot. I can reach it, but have a bad time pulling it up and out. I've been carrying a Sig 232 in a belly band lately, which works fine but I'd like to get a FNH 9C for a bit more power and capacity. Doe's any one have any thing to say Pro or Con wise on carrying one of those in a belly band at the 1 0'clock position. I have NO experience with striker fired weapons. !!   Thanks

I guess the big con is some people feel uneasy carrying a striker fired gun without a manual safety or  external hammer in the  AIWB position. I don't have a problem doing it, you just have to be extra cautious when re-holstering the gun and look as you slide the gun in to make sure nothing is going to catch the trigger. It's not a race to see how fast you can get the gun back in the holster, if you actually had to use the gun in a self defense situation you're probably not going to want to re-holster it anyway. Just practice with an unloaded gun to get the feel for things and you'll be fine.
