Title: Florida Shooters
Post by: tman on May 31, 2008, 02:10:38 PM
Anyone using the Blackhawk fanny pack holster, it looks ideal for our environment.  I carry a Taurus 24/7 9mm, because of arthritis in the right hand and switching to left hand, I need an easier way of drawing.

You might want to try SafePacker:

It seems like a great product, and Mr Bane swears by it.

Living in FL I do not want to carry any thing extra. A P3AT in my pocket works fine.

CCW is so popular in Florida that any time I see an able bodied male wearing a fanny pack, the first thing I assume is gun.
I stick with a P3At in the pocket as well.   It also supports the local economy: They're made in Florida!

I knew that but I have been suprised as I find out how many gun makers are in FL and many right here in the Tampa Bay area.

We need to get those mfgs in the Kommie states like IL and MA to move here!

Why is it that purchasing Kel-Tec is cheaper outside Florida

I did, but I'm beginning to wonder if it might not flare up again, not so straight forward this time, rural areas every where versus urban weasels like Bloomberg, Nagin and Daley.

I know I started with a fanny pack, but came across this by accident, any opinions on this.

I like my Uncle Mikes paddle holster, but I only use it in the fall/winter when I can get away with wearing a jacket or a fleece vest.
