lets give free glocks to all the gang bangers... we may just get lucky.


No more "banging" after the bang.  ;D

That seems pretty ridiculous. …and what would the lanyard b for? This might only be suited for the glove compartment?

I dunno. I don't think there is a good way to carry a Glock (other than in your hand) unless it's in a holster. And that is coming from me... probably the biggest Glock fan of all-time.  :) It does look cool. But, I wouldn't carry it concealed on me like that. And even if you put it in a briefcase or something... still why not just use a holster?

Better yet, why not just use a Sig??   ;D

I'm with Fuzdaddy. I'd probably use something like this in a quick access gun box where grabbing for the pistol may be under less than optimal lighting conditions. Should keep you from hitting the trigger prematurely. Tie the other end of the lanyard off and it would rip the guard off at your set distance.

Glock or not, I have mexican carried a lot, bottom line, it's good for what I use it for now, which is, knock on the door at the wrong time, holster is off, a quick tuck and go answer the door, not necessarily open it, say " who are you and why are you here? "  a noise in  the back yard that is not right, same thing, the quick tuck IWB is convenient, but not condusive to running or loose clothing, I have felt the pistol come out of or down my pants, coming out you can readjust, when it go's down is much worse. I dropped a Walther pp .380 into a toilet because I was so used to it, I did not remove it before I let down my pants and SPLOOSH,  there it was, luckily I had not become fully engaged at that time, some paper towels and some judicious cleaning later saved it, the gun, not my honor. The Mexican carry is from your car or bedroom to the front door, No mas, no menos. Field expedient, no more. Now this clever device does have some application, but it won't keep the pistol from migrating. Up or down.

I have tucked a pistol into my waistband to answer the door or go out to the mailbox but never carried it any farther that way. Most of the time I put it in back where it's less visable and won't blow off any vital organs if I have an AD. A front jeans pocket also works in those situations if the gun is big enough that the grip can't go down into the pocket. Looping my belt around it seems to work good too. Almost like a beltslide holster.

Excuse my ignorance, but what the hell is "Mexican carry"?  Sounds like pistol stuck inside your trousers w/out holster.  I have yet to see a Mexican from either side of the border carry a pistol that way.  Only ones are the Mexicans in the movies played by non-Mexicans with stupid accents like Eli Wallach and John Saxon.
