Love it.... for shorter barreled pistols. (Like my usp c) Not so sure about full sized guns. (like my p226) Go see pistol-forum.com for more info. much of the aiwb talk started here I believe.

Aiwb has many benefits. A major negative point is that if you make it a mistake, you may be dead before you get to the phone and call 911.

I don't know if I would be comfortable with a glock or a M&P in an AIWB holster. But, that's why I own USPc and P226. AND... I have trained myself to hold the hammer down while I holster.

I don't carry appendix, but do have an M&P. I usually just put the gun in the holster when it is not on my body, then put the holster on. There is virtually no chance at a discharge doing it this way.
Okey....but what about when you go training and reholster ?

If you are not practicing reholstering the gun, I'd be deathly afraid that I won't do it right, when I have to.

Just to add my 2 cents to "AIWB not being safe".

-Most carry methods sweep your own body while being holstered. I've seen pictures to prove it.
-To each their own, it's not for every one.
Depending up on the gun carried and techniques/knowledge being employed, perhaps AIWB is not for you.

BTW..Have you seen this video of a "Grand Master" drawing from AIWB ? It's amazing. It's bordering an art form.

This recently inspired me to practice my draw a lot more.
