At this point in time I, like most individuals who carry a concealed firearm have a drawer full of holsters. I keep telling myself that each of them has a different purpose or something to try and justify my holster habit, but truthfully its no different than my girlfriend and her pursue collecting habits. Regardless, I had been thinking about picking up an Incog for quite some time, but kept telling myself that my other holsters serve the same purpose.
Well one evening, I saw that amazon had one for my M&P shield.... and it had prime shipping. So I thought what the heck and ordered it up. The most exciting part of the process was the fact that I ordered it at about 9 on a Monday night and received it in the mail the next day!
Overall the incog holster is pretty spectacular, as it works really well for what I need it for. The Key to this is the simple design and the interesting hooks that are used. The holster utilizes offset clips that help push the grip of the pistol into your side. This really aids slimmer people like myself, as most appendix style holsters I have tried really have problems with the grip printing due to the fact that it doesnt really 'tuck into' the body like the incog does.
For a completely hard holster it is actually pretty comfortable, which I might attribute to the 'tactical fuzz' which is the felt like stuff on the outside of the holster. Its important to note that its still not more comfortable than my stealthgear appendix carry rig, but it does conceal better!
Issues:
Ive had a couple of issues, first the tactical fuzz might be a bit to grippy and actually tends to pull the front of my undergarments down. Not significantly, but just enough where I can tell and it becomes slightly annoying.
Secondly, the holster is a tad wider than it might need to be. I dont run the holster with a mag caddy, but have a slight issue with where I would like to carry the holster and where the clips line up on my belt. It appears that the clip generally lines up with the center line (where the button is which becomes and issue) and the majority of my pant belt loops which is just a tad annoying.
Finally, the end of the holster tends to not adjust as nicely as some other holsters when I go to sit down. For example some holsters easily ride up a bit to accommodate your leg when you sit down, but this one tends to need a bit of a nudge to achieve that adjustment.
Even with the slight issues I have found, this holster is top notch and has actually become my current go to for appendix carry. More and more I am carrying appendix style, which tends to be due to the clothes I wear. If I am wearing my casual clothes (not a long sleeve or long shirt) I go with the appendix however if im wearing a flannel or a longer shirt I go with my typical 5 o'clock IWB method.
Since picking up the incog, it has been the only appendix rig I have been running. Pick one up, you wont be disappointed!
