    Flashbang Bra Holster

    Howdy,

    So my girlfriend and I just moved to Colorado and are getting our CCWs soon. I've been discussing methods of carry with her and I'm trying to get her away from the idea of carrying in her purse. I just ran across THIS and think that it's an interesting idea.

    Have any of you ladies actually tried this method of carry before, or at least something similar? Likes/dislikes, etc...

    I am a law enforcement officer in the state of Colorado. Nothing I post is legal advice of any kind.

      I will, but it won't be for a while. I need to get the money for the class and application. You can get this for $40 on eBay and one thing that has me kind of worried is that I don't know the quality of the holster. By looking at the pictures it seems like the gun is pointing right at the left breast (right if you're left-handed). If it's poor quality it could lead to an AD which would be bad news.

        I sometimes carry in a similar location with a belly band, grip almost horizontal under my right breast (I'm a righty) muzzle pointed down and to my left, hammer in between my breasts. It's the most concealable spot on my body, and a pretty comfortable carry. Not the easiest place to draw from, though.

        The bonus is I can use the same belly band for a 5 o'clock carry when I want.

        And no, before anyone says it, there will be no pics.

          it appears to work well for women standing up....i'm not sure that the gun wouldn't be visible if they sat down.

          also, the tabs used to hook up to the bra: well, some of us are hefty up there and wear sturdy bras therefore needing a longer loop.

          it is made and sold by a woman: http://www.flashbangholster.com/Flas.../About_Me.html

          a users's review:


          another comment by a woman that i read is that she didn't like how the barrel pointed into her breast and preferred a holster pointing down........

            That was my first though. I was also thinking that on hot days you sweat and that is a prime place for sweat on anyone especially women. You might be fighting rust issues with that sort of carry method.

              Not sure this one is such a great idea. I get very nervous about holsters that have you muzzeling a body part. I won't wear shoulder holsters or some of the deep concealment holsters that place the gun pointing into your thigh (right at a major artery) for the same reason.

                Well, I liked the video.

                So what kind of boobies holster is there for chicks who don't wear bras?

                  All I can think of while watching this video is that the bad guys will probably stop dead in their tracks thinking you're going to flash them some tata's!

                  Now on a serious note, I just wouldn't feel comfortable wearing that in my bra. Just seems awkward and I would fear it falling out/being visible/and so on.

                  Would like to hear from someone who has actually tried it in real life though!

                    This is the reason I won't use a bra holster.

                    Accidental firing and the bullet can go to the heart, chest or head.
                    Accidental firing on a hip holster, legs mostly.

                    Count me out of the Flashbang.

                      That's me. I don't wear a bra anyway. I like them to jiggle around.

                            I'm only an A-cup and I'm not sure how well this product would work for me. I'm pretty sure I'd have a visible lump inbetween my breasts if I used this product.
