what about those shirts that have a pocket for the gun sewn in under the arm? I can't remember the name, but have seen them at the local gunshow.

While I don't ride a motorbike, I have used a sherpa holster for when I mountain bike.  It keeps what ever pistol I'm carrying right where it's supposed to be.  Even last summer when I took a spill right on top of my XD45.  Had a bruise for a while, but the gun wasn't damaged and it stayed in the holster.  When I'm out on a trail I cant comprimise with a mouse gun because a .380 iis just going to make a mountain lion mad.  Although that chest rig may work pretty good.

There are several brands, all with various pros and cons.  Problems include:

Not stable/secure enough for activity
Not enough protection of trigger IMO for a non-safety gun like a Glock
Usually built on a pretty crappy T-shirt.
Need a whole wardrobe of them ($$) to make it through daily wear.


I think I need to call Survival Sheath and talk ideas to them.

I wholly agree with your assessment.
Basing this solely on the appearance in the adds, it just doesn't look sturdy enough for secure carry (I could be wrong, though)........I probably would not personally use one myself, but was simply providing info.

I have a leather handle bar bag with a J frame size holster that velcros to the side of one of the zippered compartments inside.

It was a setup I bought several years ago at the Laughlin River run. I'm not sure if it is still available anywhere today but it works really well.

I use the holster for pocket carry although the bag was designed to detach from the bars and becomes a fanny type pack when off the bike. I'm not into fanny packs so I removed the waist band.

It has both zippers and velcro for closure. I always leave it unzipped and just use the velcro closure for faster access.

I can take some pics if anyone is interested.

Here is a link to a tank bag that is similar to it.
