Frequently Asked Questions

What are the key factors for improving appendix carry concealment?

Improving appendix carry involves optimizing holster cant, using concealment aids like claws and wedges to reduce printing, ensuring proper ride height, selecting quality attachments, and choosing a suitable belt, potentially a minimalist or buckle-less design.

How does a holster claw help with appendix carry?

A holster claw is an attachment near the trigger guard that uses belt tension to push the firearm's grip closer to the body, significantly reducing the likelihood of the gun printing through clothing.

Why is belt selection important for appendix carry?

Belt selection is crucial because bulky or large buckles on standard belts can create noticeable printing in the front when carrying appendix. Minimalist or buckle-less belts offer a flatter profile for better concealment.

What is the purpose of a wedge or body contour on an appendix holster?

A wedge or body contour is a feature on the bottom of a holster that presses against the body. This pushes the top of the firearm (slide and grip) inward, aiding in better concealment by reducing the distance the gun stands off from the body.
