It's summer here in GA and it's HOT. I usually carry a WC CQB 1911 .45 in a IWB Braveheart Kytac (great holster btw) but I've since started wearing shorts that don't have belt loops. I'm thinking of either carrying my S&W J frame .38 or the HKP7 M8 in a shoulder holster. If I go with the HK I'll buy a Alessi shoulder holster and with the J frame a Ken Null SMZ. Here are my questions:
1. Not having ever worn such a rig, I wanted to know opinions on them regarding comfort level.
2. Is there anything I can do about the lack of sights short of buying a CTC laser, like tritium inserts, etc.?
3. How about the trigger on the J-frame too? Can I make it lighter and if so how light do you recommend?
4. What else do you guys recommend for making my J-frame suitable for carry?
5. And finally, for those that carry the j-frame, does the lack of capacity, slow reload, bad sights, heavy trigger, and relatively weak round bother you? (no flame on revolvers, just want honest info. Understand that training can make up for this).
Thanks for listening.
