Sadly, it finally happened. My j-frame fell out of my IWB holster. I was working on some mountain property moving heavy logs, lots of bending and twisting. Then i paused to help move a heavy collapsible picnic table and as i slid the table up the right side of my body to secure it (left hand reaching over my head to hold the top of the table) i heard a thunk behind me and looked back to find my j-frame 442 laying in the dirt. I think a bar on the table i was carrying got under the gun and pushed it up out of the holster.
The gun was in a tension clip IWB fabric holster made by Houston. The holster stayed attached to my belt and did not fall out with the gun. It’s been a good holster for the last year. But I’ve never worn it while doing rigorous work like today. Before when doing rigorous work i always opted to pocket carry the 442, or carry something else.
Obviously this is unacceptable so I’m on the hunt for a new holster. Something with more positive retention IWB. I’d appreciate recommendations. Not interested in kydex in this application.
Thanks in advance.
