Anyone use a Appendix Carry rig with integrated mag holder?

Appendix Carry, AKA shoot your nuts off carry.

That's your opinion, and you're welcome to it. But it still comes down to keeping your booger hook off the bang switch till you're ready to fire. That is the same regardless of how you carry.

I've got the trex sidecar for my czp10c. It's surprisingly comfortable. I'm about 6ft, 230 and I dont have a problem with how it rides.
I'm mostly just trying to figure out how snug to keep my belt (webbing type with a cobra buckle)

The only comfortable AIWB Ive carried was my revolver.

Ive always really liked the idea of the mag/pistol IWB holsters but they look like they are only comfortable for certain folks.

Still really want to try carrying like that, so this was a fun thread to spark the idea again.

Well that would sure make for a bubblegum day. Definitely want to make sure your equipment is it good shape before going this route.

For those who suffer Sciatic nerve pain in one or both legs AIWB may be the only practical method of carrying for some.

I see this is an old thread, but do any of you fall into the 6'3" 200 pound category? How has appendix worked for you? Thinking of giving it a try over the small of the back I typical carry.

I am still the same shape as I was when I last posted, still carry the same way, same place. Only the gun has changed. Now its the M&P9 compact 2.0

Would an compact XDM40 work or are double stack FA's too thick?

If you do want to carry AIWB. Tac lab on Facebook makes amazing holster rigs.

Double stacks are fine.

Sorry for multi posts - not finished my first cup of coffee. Technical issues

So this is what I term modified appendix, its not just off centerline but its forward of the hips at about 1:30 position. The two belt loops on the holster straddle the first belt loop on my pants. The gun stays put, its all day comfortable, at least as on body IWB carry can be, and it conceals well.

As you can see Jim, a double stack works fine. I will say toting a gun with a DA trigger or thumb safety does give one a tad better feeling than a typical striker gun with only a trigger safetu but thats a mental thing. I carried Glocks and XDs this way too.

6'4" 200. I love it. Good belt and a good, purpose built AIWB holster is key. If you're going to be carrying a larger gun, make sure you get a holster with a wing/claw feature of some sort to keep the butt of the grip tucked into your body line.
