I was able to find some heavy elastic recently. I wrapped it twice around my upper abdomen over a T-shirt and under a button up. It seemed comfortable, but had several problems that might? be solved by the real McCoy.
a) The butt of the gun tended to print badly unless I shifted the gun muzzle down under my weak arm, (which slows draw), and must be reeeeched for.
b) Each time that I sit down, the gun would be pushed up and out of the position.
c) It would fall out of the top of the band when bending over.
I'm wondering if a hand boned holster sewn into the band would offer more security while allowing a draw. If I can solve these problems, I'll change to this carry style w/taylor made shirts that allow draw.
For those of you who use belly band rigs for cc with 1911s, I need to know the following:
1. Do you have any problems with comfort?
2. Do you have problems with the gun falling out when you bend over?
Can you give me some details for what you like about this choice.
