So I'm going skiing this weekend... and no, I don't NEED to carry while I'm skiing... but if I can, I want to.
It just occurred to me that it might actually be hard to do. CCWing while skiing, that is.
"Use an OWB holster..."
I can't... ski pants don't have belt loops = no belt. And I can't use a pancake holster because the ones I have just don't conceal well...
"Use a shoulder holster..."
I can't... It needs to stay concealed when I go into the lodge for lunch... and take off my jacket.
"Use an IWB holster..."
I COULD... and just clip the holster onto the waistband... however if I take a hard fall... there's nothing to stop those clips from coming off of the waistband... creating a floating gun+holster combo somewhere in the snow.
"Use a Smartcarry holster..."
I could... but again, if I take a fall I don't want anything heavy knocking around down there if you know what I mean. Not because I'm worried about an ND... but because having a gun swing and smack you in the junk HURTS.![Wink [wink] [wink]](/xen/styles/default/xenforo/smilies.vb/002.gif)
"Use an ankle holster..."
You must have never gone skiing before![Smile [smile] [smile]](/xen/styles/default/xenforo/smilies.vb/001.gif)
"Pocket carry..."
This is the only viable option so far... stick a safe T Blok (trigger block) in my G26... then stick it into my jacket pocket.
Any other suggestions? How have you skiers carried while skiing?
