AlZilla Posted May 14 Report Posted May 14 Below is a sreenshot from jeffreycustomleather.com of a holster they offer that rides between the belt and the pants. I'm wondering if anyone has made or used something along these lines. I'm going to see what I can engineer. For us fat guys, an OWB holster tends to tip out at the top. At least for this fat guy. I could see something like this being advantageous. Probably need to keep the mouth above the belt so the mouth doesn't crush when the gun is drawn. Galco offers one: https://www.galcogunleather.com/jak-slide-2-0-belt-holster_8_1176_1493.html A search for the phrase "Holster between the belt and pants" turns up some discussion around the net.

wizard of tragacanth Posted yesterday at 12:18 AM Report Posted yesterday at 12:18 AM A BTB (or BTP) holster is my next project. I have never used one, nor made one before. It is an experiment. I am making it for a friend who said that his "muffin-top" causes too much tilting outward with his Avenger style holster. I have always wanted to try this style, so this is the perfect opportunity. I saw that jefferycustomleather style quite some time ago and appreciated its' simplicity and elegance. Love the look. However, I worry that a muffin-top may play the devil with a snap closure, so I will be going with a sewn-on loop, such as that offered by Mitch Rosen. https://mitchrosen.com/products/straightman?_pos=3&_sid=afaeaeaf8&_ss=r This will be a straight-drop style for a Sig P365.

I haven't sat down with this project yet.
