I Mexican carried today.
I was heading out the house and I didnt feel like putting on my holster so I just stuck my 1911 in the waistband of my jeans.
I never though it was a good way to carry but I had never tried it before and now I'm a convert. It was comfortable and secure too.
Anybody else Mexican carry?

It's a bad habit, but I'm guilty of it too.  If you have to run, you will probably lose your pistol.  Also, it makes my hip hurt after a couple hours.  I think my pistol puts pressure on a nerve in my hip when I don't use a holster.

I wouldnt do it with a Glock but I feel its ok with a 1911. I dont think I'll be running with it like that, thats why I have a gun.
