And then I got the 242ti...
Form...
Well, 21 ounces is significantly less weight to carry around than 35, so the K-frame Flatjack has been seeing a lot more use in the past couple of months. It will start tapering off as the weather improves and cover garments get less bulky, but in the time I've been using it with the 242 it's been phenomenal. The way the holster sits on the belt (and yes, a good belt makes a world of difference) and distributes the weight evenly I can carry the 242 all day long and not even feel it. Positioned at approximately 4 o'clock, it doesn't even poke me in the back when I'm driving, which is a rare event indeed.
When I asked Dennis about making this holster, I had no idea I'd be using it for a daily carry holster. It was intended to be a "BBQ" holster - carry my nicely appointed Model 19 or Model 13 for OC-friendly events like the Northeast Bloggershoot (which we should probably start thinking about soon...) - and I'm quite pleased to report that it is supremely comfortable to wear all day, every day. As long as I can wear something long enough to cover this on my belt, this is my go-to rig:
AND Function!
Hmmm. I wonder if I can get Michael to make an Executive II for summertime carry?
That is all.

Very nice, and Michael's work is outstanding too!
Twist my arm.
Damn that Summer Heat! Of course, Michael Bane says that if you want to carry OWB, get the Long Version of the shirts you normally wear, and just let the Tails hang out. Still screwed if you have to tuck them in, though. But come the Revolution and all the Silly Rules are discarded....
