PACKIN HEAT

Edd Harbin · May 2, 2000, 03:19 PM

I've got a KAHR K9 , I live in north Alabama (the summer heat is unbearable ), and I need an IWB holster. I've looked at FIST, BLADETECH, and SPRINGBOK INC . any suggestions people ? By the way I'm 6 foot 3 inches 265 lbs if that makes a difference .

I live in AL too, Gadsden. I don't like IWB for summer carry. I makes me sweat like hell where the gun sits. I carry a Glock 19 in a Yaquri slide from Don Hume, pulls in nice and tight and it covers with the same shirts I wear with my IWB. If you must go IWB then I like the uncle mike's cheap velor-type IWB holster. It doesn't give great trigger protection, but it keeps a rash from breaking out.

Edd,
I use a Pager Pal with my Kahr MK9 in south Texas. Even though the K9 is a bit larger, you might find this satsifactory, given your size.

I have also found both Alessi and Fist IWB holsters to be quality products.
