Whew...I am glad Gladis made it with no injury or dirty floor infection!

VP- I am sure you have already thought of this, but have you cranked down on the screws and tightened the holster a bit? I know some folks like to wear the holster until the screws fall out (No names here....you know who you are :grin: ) and that might be a bad idea for concealed carry!

Sounds like you need to tighten the screws that clamp down on the gun.

1. UNLOAD gun.
2. Check that gun is UNLOADED.
3. CHECK that gun is UNLOADED.
4. tighten both tension screws (on trigger side of holster body) 1/2 a turn to clamp gun harder.
5. hold holstered gun over soft surface (bed) and turn over
6. shake holster slightly
7. if gun comes out of holster repeat 4-6
8. attach holster to belt and try drawing

sometimes the tension screws need to be tightned independently of each other (more clamp at top or bottom of holster)

if you rip holster of belt during draw, first try tightening belt.
Reasonable gun control is hitting your target with the first shot.

I'll try that tonight. It may be just what I need to do.

The NRA & TSRA are a bargain; they're much cheaper than the cold, dead hands experience.

I have been carrying for just 3 yrs. but I have never dropped my gun
whether in the bathroom or changing clothes or whatever. Being a man
I can only say what I do. Unlike most, I carry ISW, in front, half burried,
in soft holster at 1 o'clock. I find this most most comfotable for me. I
have carried ISW back in Keldec holster. Regardless though how I am
carrying and whether I'm in the bathroom or changeing clothes, when
one hand goes to my pants button the other hand is on my gun. I guess
sooner or later I'll drop my gun but I haven't yet. :smile:
