STARTING A TREND: Women Posing For Pictures With Guns To Support Open Carry

[BehindBlueI's]

Blue, I'm curious about that. Ladies are at a disadvantage to us where carry methods are concerned. What is your criticism of this holster?

It's not for a particular gun, just sort of generically sized like Uncle Mike's holsters. Look at the picture, there's no way to establish a proper grip on that pistol. Women limp wrist more than men to begin with, handicapping them with a low grip isn't a good idea.

Look at the cant and how far back on the ribs it is (and that's also how their instructional video shows it). Now mime trying to draw it. How contorted is your elbow and wrist? Is that a good idea?

Look at the retention strap. That's a sure mark of a cheap holster, when instead of a proper thumb break that you defeat while drawing you've got a velcro strap. Drawing now has an extra step. Pull retention strap (which can potentially fall back down between your hand and the back strap), then establish grip.

It's marketed as a "holster pocket", you velcro on the "correct" size "holster pocket" for your gun. I'm sorry the following pic is huge, but it gives you a better idea of the fit and quality (or lack there of) in this sausage sack of a holster:

HTF do you even dig that out?

Note the Lotus is sewn on, not velcro'd on like this, but otherwise pretty same-same and same maker.

Emilie Dequenne, now I want to see that movie.

Act would probably give her his wallet.

Lotus holster. Would not recommend.

Thank you. And for the explanation, too.

You should! It's an awesome movie!

That picture is from the French movie Brotherwood of the wolf.

the French wear a lot of makeup while fighting.

All that, and doesn't look like any trigger protection.
