clip vs holster
« on: September 04, 2008, 01:32:33 AM »
do any of you guys out there use the covert carrier clip(www.covertcarrier.com)instead of a holster for your r9.i have one on my kahr pm9 it works but since its a rubber sleave for the kahr it tends to stick to your pants.the one for the r9 is a metal clip that mounts under the grip.im considering trying one but looking for input.

Tried the CC clip.  Found the corner stuck out too far and dug into my hand.  The clip is let's say 20% of the grip surface on such a small gun, while it might only be 8% on a small Glock.  I cannot hold it and fire with the clip, it hits me hard in the palm.  

The clip carries VERY nicely provided your belt loop is in exactly the right position.  My favorite pants have the loop about 3/4 inch too far to the side and the barrel can stick in my leg when I bend it.  I could probably live with that.
