The most people telling you not to are fudds lmao
Today I got myself a G47L hahaha (this will actually work. And if I added the lone wolf thingy idk the name itd look clean)
I need to get a light bearing holster now for my G30S so maybe that one I will get IWB.
I much prefer IWB over OWB. I know printing might not always be an issue. But OWB always adds extra dimension externally from wherever its being worn. IWB is definitely much more discreet. Plus it gives you the ability to have a longer gun and still keep it concealed. A longer gun might stick out the bottom of a shirt if it’s being carried OWB. To see a gun while being a carried IWB, you’d have to lift your shirt up above waist line to finally see it. OWB does print pretty badly. Literally looks like a gun in a holster (to me anyway), no denying it. Drives me nuts watching dudes in the mall walking around with their crappy Serpa holsters with it sticking out 3” from the hip. I’ve carried my comped 19 w/Surefire X300U with an 18rd mag in it and a 20rd mag in the caddy for a while, including this whole week. Temps up to 90 degrees and I printed less than any OWB holster will.
Even worse is people OWB carrying pocket guns or subcompact guns.. makes no sense to me personally

Why can I see the recoil spring?
Points taken. My normal OWB holsters hold it very tight up against the body. Yes IWB would be even more discrete but people are oblivious anyway and OWB is usually more comfortable. What is an obvious gun to you is nothing to someone else. My opinion is I really don't care if someone recognizes it for what it is. Those people are probably carrying themselves. Like I said, I'll try out a IWB next for my new light setup, although I already have an overflowing box of holsters.
I got a half gallon of chocolate. peanut butter swirl ice cream.
I have not had ice cream in a couple of years.

I have nothing against them. I own 2.Some can... not to go down this road but the safariland ALS holsters can

Why?
Because this is America and he can. Lmao Some people will put longer slides on shorter gun frames for its ability to conceal better. It’s pretty much the exact same reason someone has a “Grip Chop” done to a pistol.
To see if itd actually work. Seems like it will, and now I have a Glock 47 clone hahaha
I agree that the majority of people that do see a person printing are people that are carrying themselves. Everyone has their own philosophy and ideals. For me, I much prefer people not know I have a gun on me. If someone does realize I’m carrying a gun, are they most likely a “gun-loving” cool guy like ourselves? Probably! BUT I don’t carry a gun or prepare for the very minute marginal chance of something going bad and needing a gun just to hope that the one person I didn’t want to know I have a gun, now knows I do. Because if Joe Shit the Rag Man decides to go kill some people or rob a business, he’s likely going to get rid of the person he sees to be a threat, which happens to be the first person who he sees with a gun shaped bulge on their hip standing in line waiting to pay for their items. I think if anyone is ever in the need to use a firearm, they’re most likely already behind the 8-ball and could use any advantage they can get. That’s how I think about it. Everyone is allowed their own view though.

Most light bearing holsters will only work with the light attached. I think I read of maybe one working with the light or without, but I can’t remember which one it is.
Any of the ALS holsters from Safariland will. But that is because of the active retention of the ALS system and that it locks on the ejection port..
Passive retention holsters are going to need the light

Fair enough! Makes sense. I was surprised to see the gap.
Yea the gap is because it's the 45 frame which is the 19 slide length.
But Lone Wolf makes an adapter that if I actually wanted I could put on there and itd cover that gap
Yeah, they make an adapter that you can install to fill that gap.

I can do a lot of things, tile, landscaping, siding, build my own shred, rewrite a house, spray paint is not one of them. No matter how hard I try I always get drips and stuff. I’ve tried every kind and everything I can’t think of. I suck at spray painting.
Here it is after putting it all together. Still needs accessories though. BCM upper receiver (hand lapped), BCM QRF rail, BCM Mod 0 stock, BCM Mod Mod 3 grip, Aero Precision low profile gas block, 16” Criterion Hybrid .223 Wylde chrome lined mid-length barrel.
I’ve spray painted with cans and with professional air gun, airbrushes for a long time. I’ve been doing it since like 10 years old building model cars, planes, aircraft carriers, stuff like that. I’ve definitely screwed up a few times learning how to do it right.

A very dismal year in the gun buying dept for me so this trigger makes me happy. Dropping it in a Howa 1500.
