| How many of you carry while jogging? If so, what gun and what holster? Is there a possibility that your gun might rust if you use it with a shoulder holster and sweat at the same time? |
| I carry a Keltec P3AT while running, it is very light and not very noticable at all. I have a custom (read as home made) pocket holster I use. The only reason I use it it to keep the pistol oriented muzzle down while running, other than that I could just as easily simply shove it in my pocket. |

I think the Kel-tec's probably the way to go - maybe even OC. You really have to weight the risk versus hassle. I ran regularly with my M9 in an Eagle fanny pack in Iraq - it sucked, and when the weather got worse and they opened the fancy new Gym I used that as my excuse to stick to the treadmill. |
When I lived elsewhere I made my own holster. I basically got two Velcro spandex back braces and cut one up to make a holster. I sewed it onto the other. Used plastic inserts to keep sweat off it. Very comfortable. Made me sweat my ass off. Can also use two underarmour shirts |

Blue Press had a jogging holster in their catalog at one point, it was advertised as being a holster used by the secret service when running with Clinton, I never bought one because they were like $150. I will actually put my fanny pack in my jogging stroller (since I run with my kids) but when I run alone I either don't carry (don't like in a real big urban area) or if I do carry it's usually my Seecamp .32 in a belly-band style from a local holster maker. |
