CLIPDRAW FOR MY GLOCK?
« on: March 02, 2013, 10:21:00 PM »
Ive been looking into getting the Clipdraw for my Glock 23/27. I've done my own research on the product and it seems to be worth the $27 (at least to try). I'm drawn to the fact that I don't have to carry a holster. I suppose that If I don't like it, Ill stick it in the safe and forget about it. Any personal experiences with the product?

Carrying a Glock with out a fully covered trigger guard is a very bad idea

I own one of these clips, purchased for use in my Glock G19.  Used it one or two times but just not comfortable carrying with out the trigger covered with using a holster.

I'd go so far as to say "ANY" handgun  ....... YMMV.

I have an LEO buddy who has carried his off duty Glock with the clip draw since it first came on the market with no issues. But not having something covering the trigger guard makes me a bit nervous as well.

Using it in tandem with a Dale Fricke "Zacchaeus" has been a popular combo recently.

The Zach attaches to your belt or belt loop and keeps the trigger guard covered, the clip draw keeps the gun in your pants and in one place. I dont think there is another system that will take up less space in your pants, but it only works well in the appendix position.

 ...and I have a buddy that does not wear a seat belt ....... with no issues, so far ..... still  bad plan, IME.

I would add a trigger block safety.  These two are on Amazon.

The first one is made for no holster, the second one works with most holsters.

http://www.amazon.com/Glock-Tech-MIC-Holster-Black/dp/B006VYBAZ8/ref=pd_sim_sbs_misc_3

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00818BVZQ/ref=s9_simh_gw_p200_d0_i3?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=center-2&pf_rd_r=10VT0E6M9WRYTSVN2GRX&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=1389517282&pf_rd_i=507846

I have twenty years experience with the second one, and would not personally carry a Glock without it. 

Is a Glock safe without these?  Yes.  Is a Glock safer with these?  Possibly, if they fit your lifestyle and style of carry.

Check them out.   They only cost lunch money, and do not alter your gun when not in use.

Carrying any gun without a holster that covers the trigger is an exceedingly bad idea.  Carrying one sans holster in the appendix position is a good way to ensure you don't pass on your bad ideas to the next generation.
