We really like and been using the Don Hume JIT for years. We feel it's very versatile. Here's something I posted in another thread:

"What I do is carry a K9, PM9, in very reasonably priced Don Hume JIT holsters. I also carry a 1911 commander in a JIT holster. . I weave my belt through all the belt loops except the one at my hip area. I also try to wear a nylon belt. This allows me to easily slide the holster any anywhere from behind the hip to the appendix.

In a car I slide it to in front of my hip bone so it's not digging into the seat or my waist. When bending I casually use the back of my hand to slide it to the appendix position, no one ever notices the movement. The nylon belt makes for an easy slide.

When wearing a vest or jacket, I usually carry at or just behind the hip bone and use a knife edge swipe to get at the gun.

When wearing a loose fitting shirt outside my pants I still usually carry in the same position but if get a tingly sensation, I'll casually slide the holster to the appendix position so that I can easily lift my shirt and draw.

When wearing a size larger T shirt I carry in front of the hip bone.

The wife uses her as a cross draw, again the hip belt loop is not used. She can slid the holster from behind the weak side hip to appendix with very little effort."

IMHO, a nylon belt is the main componant for concealed carry.
Another thing is, I and many others feel this Bruce Nelson design is the best for concealed carry.

I appendix carry my CM9 in a PJ, daily. I have had other holsters including the Garret Silent Thunder. In my opinion the PJ is the best holster I've ever used. I ordered mine straight (no cant), low ride where just the grip is exposed past my waistband, and the over the belt clip no wider than 1". It came out exactly how I asked and is perfect. Paul is every helpful and accommodating and can help you make any decisions. I hope this helped you.

Me too, also. PJ makes an outstanding AIWB for any Kahr pistol. Mine has zero cant and an over the belt loop. It's the best CC holster I've ever owned. Appendix carry is well accepted by many fine shooters. Me, for instance.

I'm liking AIWB carry for my J-frame and my TCP 380, both of which ride close to my body and don't print much under an untucked shirt. But my CM9 is bulkier by comparison and prints badly in that location, so I will continue to carry it behind my hip in my PJ Kydex IWB or my James Dean leather IWB.

I use a basic Don Hume IWB holster for the CM9 carried at 2 o'clock. I like it.

Guys I appreciate it! I guess I was just wanting a little more assurance on the PJ before I pulled the trigger and you gave me that. That is what I think I am going with.

I can do the same with my THC holster and Infidel.

Oops!
I didn't see the PJ Holsters preference. I'll keep my big key board shut for now. And my eyes open

[muggsy]

That's ok, JG. We're always open to other suggestions. Your rigs look very nice.

[OnTarget31]

For sure jg, looking for all info! Thanks for your input and good looking rigs!

I have a number of PJ holsters.. Simple and effective for iwb carry. I carry a glock 26 aiwb in one of his straight drops frequently. But, my favorite aiwb is the ccc shaggy because it has a wedge that forces the grip into the body. Unfortunately they are backorder for over 6 months. Pjs are a great option and the best customer service on the planet.

I don't see the option for AIWB (PJ Holster) with a CTC. Does any here have that option? If you can post a pic it would be very helpful.
Thank you

Just thought I'd add to the conversation. I am now carrying my J-frame AIWB in a pocket holster. No kidding! I am using the Stays-Put Ultra - just $14.95 shipped to you. As the name suggests, it stays put in my pocket better than any pocket holster I ever tried (and I have tried a lot). It is pretty thin, yet it disguises the shape of the gun well. But much to my delight, I have found that it will stay put all day long without having to fiddle with or adjust it AIWB behind a good 1 1/2" belt, with the belt at it's normal notch. I sit it in there pretty low with a backward cant, which keeps it away from my leg when I sit down and facilitates the draw. The cant also makes the grip lay down horizontally right next to my waistline. I have a cell phone case with 2 belt loops (I removed the metal clip) that I mount just behind the grip so that the cell phone is the only thing that prints under a loose shirt. I love that it is as easy to draw sitting down as it is standing, and I can do it without my elbow jutting out like when I draw from behind the hip. And this thing is 100% comfortable all day long! The holster is well made and, I think, durable. It is made of microfiber with the typical smooth nylon inner lining. It breaths and does good keeping moisture away from the gun. You just can't beat it!
