I am 5 10 165lbs and I am wondering since the gun is held horizontal if it is obviously printing by sticking out at the back? What is your experience

I'm not quite sure what you're asking, but it sounds like you want to know if it sticks out the back and no it doesn't. My husband loves it. He did have to add a piece in the back in the middle to pull it closer together but he is 6ft 150lbs. His shirt bunches up sometimes but he loves it

Toward your body. The firearm should be facing your body with the flat face of the holster pressing against the outside of your clothing.

Yea it's on for life. It took me putting my knee on the guns and using my weight to get them lose. I set the guns on something soft so I didn't damage them. With that said I no longer have that set due to defective guns. Went through 3 kits and said that was enough. Wish you the best of luck with them.

This holster is fine for CCW if you can wear larger or oversized clothing, AND you have a larger body frame. Otherwise you will print. This is an absolutely great holster, but designed more for tactical access and retention, than concealment. I am a 6'3" guy who lives in MN, so I get a lot of use out of it. If I lived in Florida: not so much.

Hi James, Well I stopped using it a while back. It's now in my drawer of old holsters and such. On the photo you see 2 stripes. Those stripes are a cross between velcro and sticky rubber and that is what holds it between the mattress and box springs. Drawing, yep, that's why it's in the drawer. I don't think it was necessarily the fault of the holster. My mattress would move relative to the box springs resulting in the grip being forced against the mattress making it difficult to draw. The quality of the holster is fine. It's the function that fails me. Dale

It is really made for the right side of the body to minimize showing the outline of the firearm. The high back accomplishes this for carry in the right rear pocket. You will need to adapt to pulling the weapon out using the thumb until it is clear enough to grab with the fingers. This is not difficult to accomplish but it is not the typical western draw most are accustomed to using.

Yes...and it is meant to be drawn with a right handed grip. You draw it out in a left leg forward lunge position. Two things... make sure you check to see that you are selecting the correct holster. I bought mine and had to return it because the pictures were inconsistent. This particular one does not have a thumb-break (naturally it is more secure with TB). Also, when selecting between right or left handed holster you need to take into consideration whether you are carrying it as a back-up gun or not. If it is not as a back-up gun then the right handed holster is the way to go. Hope this helps. Yes...and it is meant to be drawn with a right handed grip.

Hi Jill. I've used the printer to print thicker stock than regular paper and it struggled a little. Couple jams or incorrect feeds before I got what I wanted. It's a good printer. But I'm not sure how pictures would do. Hoped this helped.

After the holster is properly broken in, it is just a little loose. The pistol will be held ok by friction fit, from one side of the holster to the other (belt side next to body to outside away from body), but will have some play in it vertically, i.e. you can rock the pistol from the front of the holster to back of the holster. This holster is really dedicated to having the light mounted on the pistol.

Yes I have been successfully using 110 lb 199 g/m^2 card stock without issues. With the straight through printing setting (open the back) it will only have a small curl at the end of the page. I don't think the printer can handle card much thicker though.

Might be a tad small, a 10 year old that weighs 70-80 lbs for instance will increase your lower back strain when in the holster.

I have not had any issues with that. I read that from some of the other reviews but I've not experienced any issue what so ever. It's a great holster, you won't be disappointed. I have a Crossbreed IWB for my XD .40's and it's nice but I like the SHTF one better. It has a bit less extra leather above the waist and makes it easier to maneuver.

Yes, not a problem....I did find that the recoil on my "forty" shuts it down if I'm running rounds through it while punching paper. Have read that I need to lengthen the battery spring a bit to solve the problem. You can look up responses on the net.

It would be heavy to carry around for a long period of time but my 5'2 100 lb girlfriend can shoot it fine. You could grow into it too. If you're worried that much about size though maybe try a cheaper youth break barrel first.

I'm 5'9" and this stock allows me to hold the gun in a comfortable "tactical" position. In other words I don't feel like I'm not holding the gun 3 feet away like I did with the original stock. Hope that helps.

Unless you are 7 feet tall and use huge pants it doesnt work. This holster is huge it doesnt fit in my pockets pants and when it does it prints like a gun. bad item, i used it once and never again

Yes and no. The arms lock when folded but both still swivel side to side when folded. It's not a deal breaker for me. I believe the benefit to this is to allow your weapon to track a target and pivot on the bipod a little while the legs are extended. It allows the bipod to remain planted while giving you some versatility. When folded up, the legs can still turn side to side. You might be able to tighten something to limit the play in the amount it turns. It kind of annoys me but I guess it's part of the design. The legs will not fold out until you release a button on each leg. Still a great deal for the money. Yes and no. The arms lock when folded but both still swivel side to side when folded.
