bullit:
For what its worth Clint Smith actually discusses this topic in one his newer DVDs.  Specifically and STRONGLY suggests taking them off. 

NENick:
Thanks for posting this. Thanks to whoever made it public knowledge. Nothing is more reinforcing than a picture.

I'm pretty focused on holstering slow and careful, but I hadn't thought about this.

OnTheFly:
When I was a kid, I was fascinated by a photo at the Air National Guard that showed a ring and a ring finger that was separated from its owner.  The point was, don't wear rings, or cover them with gloves.  My point is that visuals make a BIG impression on the intended audience.  "Ouch" is right.

The ouch comment reminds me of another story.  My uncle was on the ground in Germany during WWII.  He was shot and while lying in a hospital bed, a military clergyman came up to him and asked "What were your first thoughts when you were shot?", expecting to get a revelation about coming to terms with his God.  Instead, my uncle's reply was "Ouch!".  I come from a family with an odd sense of humor.

i was wearing a fleece with a ball type drawstring tightener at a PRT Fundamentals class, the string kept getting caught in my holster but the plastic
part kept worrying me

David Hineline:
Kind of a known issue with holsters with the serpa type trigger lock.

this one was a bit of T-Shirt and in below the holster, out above the knee, in below the knee and out above the ankle.  The hospital reported it as 4 gun shot wounds.
