Any recommendations on appendix carry holster for a small frame revolver?
I'm looking at Dale Fricke holsters. The Archangel seems to ride a little low from what I can tell. I like the look of the Joab a bit more. It seems like it may be more comfortable. Has anyone used both models? If so, what have you found the differences to be? And, has anyone ordered a Fricke holster with the Extra Girth Adapter?
How secure does it feel? With only one soft loop to attach to your belt I would think it flops back and forth a bit. I look forward to your review, I really like the look of it.This just arrived in the mail yesterday. I wore it yesterday and will for a while and report back. They're made in Indiana and I'm happy with the quality!
The problem with AIWB holster with a single strap is that it moves and shifts. It leads to an inconsistent draw and re-holstering. But it's also a catch-22, a single strap AIWB holster CAN be more comfortable because it does move and shift with your body...
I took the plunge and ordered an Archangel and mag pouch for my Ruger SR9c. I'm excited to try it out. Hopefully, it's as good as I've been told.

To paraphrase John Hearne (because I can't remember his exact words), its not the odds, its the stakes. Appendix carriers are no more likely to shoot themselves upon drawing or reholstering than anyone else, the problem is what can happen if they do. Appendix carry is inherently more deadly than other forms of waistband carry. It is up to the individual to make the decision. There are things you can do to mitigate the risk to a great extent to include a proper holster, good reholstering methods, ... etc.
Not yet. There's a 2 week lead time. I should get it sometime next week.You should get it soon I would think, if you haven't already... Let us know what you think!
