I'd like to get a tuckable IWB holster for my Sig Sauer Ps220, but nothing is open down here on Sunday. Has anyone ever been to Kittery Trading Post?

If you are looking for something that specific, I'd call first. Long trip for a "maybe" at best, unless you're just doing a general shopping trip.

Good idea. I have to head up in that general direction for mother's day anyway, and who can stop into a sporting goods store and not find SOMETHING to buy?

A very long time ago. If it is still like it was then, IT'S WORTH THE TRIP!

Even just to see that many guns in one place, all behaving themselves.

I made the trip, but didn't get what I wanted.

I called ahead and asked for an IWB "tuckable" holster. They said they had several in stock. I showed up, and they not only had none in stock, but when I explained what it was they said they don't exist. I had to show them online. The sales guy spent the next 5 minutes telling me what a stupid idea that was and how he had no idea why anyone would want one.

I probably won't be back there for awhile.

That was horrid. I've never had that type of response from them. Usually they're pretty decent. Ed and I go up there to get our black powder for reenacting (no one in the area carries what we use and since they have to pay big $$'s for shipping harzardous they don't usually stock it.) He should have offered to order it for you.

I agree. Even if he had, I wouldn't have done it since I can do that online myself (which I did when I got home). I would have been fine with them making a mistake. The only thing that really got to me was making me feel like a moron for wanting a tuckable. Since I wear a suit every day, there aren't a lot of options open to me.

HE was the moron. I use a tuckable (as well as others) because I'm more comfortable with it and sometimes it's just easier to hide it that way. Although I have gotten comments - mostly from men - who are uncomfortable wearing them because of the muzzle pointing in a certain direction. [lol]

What is a really good CCW holster for let's say, a Glock 19? I've got enough brains to not have an AD/ND, so I'm not so vain as to worry about blowing off body parts.

I've heard a number of good things about something called Thunderwear. It's sort of like a "inside the pants" fanny pack. The one that I use for my 9mm is soft fabric (I don't know the name of it - there isn't one on it and it was given to me), with a clip that attaches to my waist band. It's pretty comfie. And I don't think it's the worry of an AD - my husband says it's just the thought of the direction the gun's pointing in. :D
