So I bought a "Desantis The Maverick Holster fits Sig P238" and really like it. Its an OWB holster, with a thumb strap and it's form fitted to the gun. The thumb strapped coming between the hammer and firing pin makes me more comfortable carrying cocked and locked. Plus the clip is low on the holster making the holster ride high on my hip meaning the concealed part of concealed carry is easier to achieve and maintain. However; the first time I tried to draw the gun . . . I practically had to rip my pants off. Okay that's a bit of a hyperbole, but the thing is tight. By the time I was done with my range session it was coming out of the holster more easily.

Any tips on holster break in?

Life is good.
