It’s Senior Day at the Palace of Food, which is not my favorite day of the month because I have to spend a lot of time in D&L’s truck and then half an hour or so in a crowded Safeway. We’re going early today so maybe not so crowded? Don’t know. Anyway, I was laughing at myself just now because I hardly ever see anybody but my immediate neighbors and they know my foibles, so on Palace of Food day when I’ll be surrounded by lots of people I always end up obsessing over how I’m dressed…
…which is pretty much the way I dress every day except a little less ragged, plus now I’ve got the Arex so I have to switch to the highrise holster, which I hate even though frankly it’s more comfortable to carry – tucked up close to my body and not catching on every little thing, but my right shoulder is permanently messed up which makes a draw from the highrise a rather gradual process and let’s not even mention reholstering, I mean it’s basically ceremonial at this point…
Decent set up. What’s the string go to?
So you are now fully qualified to join the Secret Service if you identify as a woman!
The loop is for Tobie’s walking lead, in case I need my hands free or he surprises me and snatches the lead away from me. He’s strong but he can’t break that loop or my belt.
Would that holster work in a cross-draw configuration? That might put less stress on your shoulder, or so I imagine.
I don’t have a lot of experience (read: none) with holsters.
PS: For some reason I still don’t get e-mailed notifications of your new posts or other people’s replies to them. I *think* I have all the notification settings correct on my end.
I’ll second Jabrwok’s suggestion. I carry righthand crossdraw because of serious shoulder issues on that side. You can get fast that way.
I suspect that if you really had to pull the 9mm, the shoulder wouldn’t be that big of an impediment. However, a shoulder holster is a good option. If nothing else, it would look cool. 🙂
