Aimhigh Posted July 26, 2010 #1 Posted July 26, 2010 any of you ever try a concealed carry holster called the "cell Pal"? I checked the site and it looks like it might be very useful...just wanted to see if anyone has any experience with it. http://www.concealedcomfort.com/index.html
oldandcrotchety Posted July 26, 2010 #2 Posted July 26, 2010 Looks good, but wouldn't work for me. Too bad. The idea of not having to wear extra cover clothes would be nice in hot weather. It says it fits all J-frame revolvers but mine is the larger K-frame. Guess I'll just stick with my shoulder rig and wear my vest. Sorry I didn't contribute any useful information for you, I've never even seen one of these before. Just thought I'd comment on it since it does look like a practical rig. (If I could draw past my pot belly).
flb_78 Posted July 26, 2010 #3 Posted July 26, 2010 There's a vendor that sells those at the local gun shows in Amarillo. It doesn't work to well in my opinion. Not very easy to draw from to me. Plus, I wear my jeans lower under my gut so I wear my belt pretty tight. but having a gun that's a little difficult to access is better than none at all.
Sylvester Posted July 26, 2010 #4 Posted July 26, 2010 I have a real problem with all "in the waistband" holsters. The time to draw is too slow. In the summer I wear a Hawian style loose shirt and a .45 Colt (1911) on my hip and a .380 in an ankle holster. In the winter I wear a shoulder holster with either the .45 or a .357 and the .380 on the ankle. On the bike I wear a TourMaster Air jacket with a .44 in the pistol pocket and the .380 on the ankle. No one ever knows that I have them. Two weeks ago while riding with friends, we were stopped by the NC Troopers for vehicle/license check. I immediately told the trooper I was carrying and he had me pull over to check my permit. The other riders were astonished that I was pulled since they had no idea. After a few minutes we were off again.
flb_78 Posted July 26, 2010 #5 Posted July 26, 2010 Also, you should check out http://www.TexasCHLForum.com Anything you could ever want to know about CHL in Texas. I just moved to Kentucky from Texas so my CHL is no good now and I have to be a resident of KY for 6 months before I can apply for my license, but Kentucky is an open carry state which works for me!! http://forum.opencarry.org/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=3294&d=1279572861
oldgoat Posted July 26, 2010 #6 Posted July 26, 2010 flb gee thanks Dianne saw the belt under the gut. and said see i told you thats how you should wear yours. instead of pulling you pants up to your belly button. more comfort.

Long Tall Lynchburg, VA good choice, i have the XD 40 in the tactical and like yours is dead on. the gun is always accurate, it is me that twitches now and again!!!
Formerfuzz Posted July 27, 2010 #20 Posted July 27, 2010 I'm sure it is made by the same company that made the Pager-Pal. I tried it and it was too bulky in my pants. The video of it looks slick, but it is not comfortable.
BEER30 Posted July 27, 2010 #21 Posted July 27, 2010 I typically carry in my vest and when not in vest, IWB using this little contraption. http://i299.photobucket.com/albums/mm312/BEERCART/droid/bcf51600.jpg Bare minimal and protects the trigger during the draw or an AD in the shorts. If open carry , I either use the G-Code kydex holsters or one of my own making on a RTI wheel to either use drop leg, belt or on MOLLE for my 3 gun shoots. I have an SA XD 9mm subcompact. If I had known at the time I would have gotten the .40 as you can change only the barrel to make it a 9mm. BEER30
