Not a fan of having the muzzle pointed there.

To each their own, but does it not violate rule #1? It's pointed right at your leg where a major artery is right?

[*]Parents' Guide To Gun Safety [*]Training Programs [*]Education & Training Programs [HR][/HR] NRA Gun Safety Rules Available as a brochure The fundamental NRA rules for safe gun handling are:
		1. ALWAYS keep the gun pointed in a safe direction. This is the primary rule of gun safety. A safe direction means that the gun is pointed so that even if it were to go off it would not cause injury or damage. The key to this rule is to control where the muzzle or front end of the barrel is pointed at all times. Common sense dictates the safest direction, depending on different circumstances.

You are violating rules if you carry a loaded gun, period. Even at 3 oclock the muzzle will occasionally sweep something you don't wish to destroy. My view is the rules are extremely important when handling guns, but aren't as applicable when the gun is holstered and being carried.

Like I said, to each their own. I like to minimize the muzzle sweeping anything as much as possible (including myself) At 3 o'clock I'm usually only muzzle sweeping my dog on occasion. That's why I wouldn't carry in a shoulder holster either. I'm not comfortable having a striker fired gun pointed at my leg (or worse)! I would not do it with a hammer fired gun either but I my discomfort level would be less!

Just some food for thought. AIWB is NOT for everyone, there will always be people who think it is dangerous and breaks the 4 rules just like there will always be people who think guns should be banned. It is not for beginners to be sure.

For some reason your links (To MDTS) never work, is your site down often?

 

[ECU Pirates]

ECU, the link works fine for me, I posted a direct link to the PDF file. It doesn't look the way you have it quoted in my browser?? No, my site is rarely down.

Very strange, it always times out for me. I have never been able to access your website and I have tried multiple times.

 

[ECU Pirates]

Huh. I have tested it with most all the major browsers. Which one are you using?

Thanks for your assitance with this.

No problem, I have tried with firefox and exploer. Maybe its just my computer?
