turkeyfeathers Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 For about $25 I figured I'd give it a try Going to mount it on my Beretta tomcat .32. Adhesive strips are supposed to be crazy strong. Reviews I read were pretty good as well. I can switch from gun to gun if I want as extra adhesive strips included. I have a front pocket Desantis holster and a leather Galco ( I believe ) but wanted to try this clip out. Desantis still prints in front pocket a bit. Going to install tomorrow so I'll have a better idea of what I think. As I am never not carrying this gun gets the most carry. Hope to post some positive feedback after installing and using it for awhile. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stoneam2006 Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 I'm looking at them for my 709 slim but don't like the idea of tape. Some models you can actually bolt them onto the frame but mines only option is to tape the strip on. Is yours tape?Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turkeyfeathers Posted January 26, 2017 Author Share Posted January 26, 2017 Yes. Tape. It's supposed to be very strong to hold and easy to remove without tape adhesive residue Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nomad Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 You really love that Tomcat.... I have one as well, great grip on a small gun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's spent a lot of time with me in 16 years. Extra mag with Winchester silver tips stuffed in back pocket. Hope to never need it but it's a lot better than my full sized still in the safe at times.

Twax10 Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 No no no.. For starters, never carry without a holster that covers the trigger guard. EVER! That's how accidental discharges happen. Secondly, there is no way to efficiently draw with this setup.There are a hundred quality holsters available out there. Leather, hybrid, kydex (preferred), nylon etc. I guarantee you can find one that fits you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turkeyfeathers Posted January 26, 2017 Author Share Posted January 26, 2017 External safety that needs some pretty good force to switch off and trigger pull pretty long on first pull. Hence I'm not a fan of Glock or own anything without a safety. I'll practice drawing unloaded Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve D Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 (edited) I use one on my kel tec. Kind of like it but it can only be mounted on the right side. Never understood why they don't make one for the left side but they are very specific about installation. Just remove the pins, and install new threaded pins. Easy to go back to a holster if you want. Edited January 26, 2017 by Steve D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buckmaster7600 Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 I tried them on a couple different pistols and never liked them not being in a holster. It was very unnerving knowing nothing was covering the trigger. I also didn't like the amount of lint and crap that ended up in the guns from being worn without a holster.

bkln Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 Looks kinda shady for my taste especially with adhesive tape. I will stick to my CrossBreed the best IWB I have used. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wheelieman Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 I use the Versa Carry for my .40 shield its pretty decent, I bought the clipdraw for it. on the shield you remove the back plate on the slide and put the metal one that comes with the kit in its place then the clip bolts to that, Problem is with the Versa Carry and the clip draw it would wear a hole in my jeans where the muzzle end of the slide rubbed on them, Now i have a Safariland IWB with a single belt clip that is really comy and hasnt worn a hole in my jeans yet, Not to mention i carry all day every day and the lint build up on the inside and outside of the weapon from my undershirt and jeans is a pain, Your constantly cleaning it, And blowing the lint out with an air hose, Havent had the issue with the Safariland holster, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turkeyfeathers Posted January 27, 2017 Author Share Posted January 27, 2017 These are all good carry tips. I pulled on the clip hard and it wouldn't budge. Been clipped on jeans all day. Can't but barely see it and shirt tucked in. I'll look at a IWB holster as well. I do like the small subtle clip and not the standard wider belt clips on this though.

chas0218 Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 (edited) I prefer my IWS leather this reminds me of the holster that had a post that went up inside the barrel of the gun great concept but not very practical for everyday all day carry. The leather is nice because inside the waist band it has a little give and the parts of the gun don't rub on my back or my pelvic area depending on where I'm carrying it. Summer time carry is usually in the front and winter on my back easier to conceal with longer and heavier clothing and I'm not flashing everyone my bangstick.

airedale Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 (edited) For a small gun I prefer the simple thin inside the waistband clip on type, protects and keeps the gun clean, carry's comfortable, no rubbing chafing problems and conceals well.
