I currently have a Mikes in the pants holster for my Taurus PT111 im not sure how i feel about it. Is there anything else out there in holster form thats decent for people who do not wear a belt? All my pants i buy fit and i dont wear a belt for fashion purposes.
Do any of you have experiences with these types of holsters? |

As a former CCW instructor, I have personally seen those Uncle Mikes type holsters come out with the gun on several occasions. (IE: draw the gun, holster comes out too.)
For fashion purposes, consider wearing a belt because it will match your holster and gun perfectly.  Otherwise, consider pocket carry as an alternative because there are no secure options for an IWB holster that I would trust without a belt. Draw your gun 30 times and reholster without looking. IF you can do this with any holster without fail, I'd say that's a promising indication it should work.

at first the holster caqme out with the gun now it is molded to the form of the gun. reholstering is a bit of a bear though. Your pistol probably cost $500 or more Your carry ammo is likely $.50+ per round Your life is worth $??? Why rely on a $20 holster that doesn't work? If you are serious about carrying, get a decent holster. Take a full-day pistol training class and get some experience using it. Sounds like you haven't done much holster work. |

Ditch the Taurus, pick up a S&W M&P and order a belt and holster from Kramer |

Not really relevant w/ a cover shirt/untucked anyway. Good holsters are available, Supertuck, CTac, etc. |

Belts are not a fashion statement! Belts do more then hold up your pants. I too do not need, my belt to hold up my pants eather. But I have worn one, belt or another for years. It is just another weapon to me. Which helps keep my CC firearm form being shown! PITA45
