Introducing the Wing Man / What's on the bench

Glock 19 Wingman Light brown with airbrushed black accent

One of my favorite podcasts is the "The Handgun WorldPodcast" by Bob Mayne. He always uses the phrase "the reason that I carry a gun is because I can't carry a cop". Just another way of saying that everyone needs a WING MAN.

I have no idea of the origin of the design and have seen many variations of it. The "Wing Man" is an all leather, non tuck able,  inside the waistband holster. I meet very few people that actually tuck the shirt in on all these tuck able holsters. I personally carry under a t-shirt or camping style shirt.

• The leather clips can be locked down tight so that there is no movement when worn. 
• It has the sweat guard which keeps the gun off of your skin. 
• The holster remains open for safe one handed re-holstering.
• This holster is best suited for those that carry the gun on the hip at 3 o'clock to 5 o'clock position. 
• As with all my holsters, the gun has to be shaken out (or slowly falls out) when held upside down but the draw does not feel like it is coming out of a vice.

This thing is like a building a jig saw puzzle in all the pieces and how they go together. But, once it all together you wind up with a really impressive holster.












Any thoughts (good or bad) about this design of holster?
