Looking for an IWB holster to carry my G27 when wearing sweat pants.
I do not like those velcro tummy tuck straps and will like something that hides nicely around 5 o'clock. I do a lot of running and need something that will keep firm...tired of using an ankle holster when running.
If I can't find a good holster to use, I may opt for one of those a quick opening "fanny pack" rigs...or just stick to the ankle rig. Might need a lighter firearm like a Seacamp .380 for pocket carry, but want to try and stick with the 27 if I can. Dono.....thoughts?? Thanks!

i remember someone making a holster that strapped to your chest somehow? for running specifically... unlike those belly bands. i would definately do the fanny pack. i cant imagine how you run with an ankle holster. it would drive me nuts
there are a few company's that sell a t-shirt type shirt that has a sewn in holster, try searching 5.11 or tactical t
I'm a runner and I wouldn't run with a gun that big. It would be more of a pain than it's worth. If I were you I would look out for a deal on a p3at or lcp.

When I run, I use a smartcarry and it works great and is comfortable at any location.
I've ran many times on a regular basis with the soft neoprene holster by pistol wear the PT-1. Great with the 38 snub and when I needed to the G23,no round in the chamber of course due to the lack of a trigger guard. Material is nice and comfy.

If you run in sweat pants you aren't running far enough to worry about it.

I ordered one of these also, I like the ambidextrous capability.Price is good also.
Sir, I have run half marathon distances with a G17 in a SmartCarry. Running with a G27 in this holster should be easy.
Just use a normal gun belt and holster.
Belts don't have to go through belt loops.
Put on your underwear and t shirt, put on gun belt and gun, then put sweats on over the top.

I'd just run in a better place. If I really had to run with a gun, like I was spending a year in Detroit and had no car, I'd carry a Kel Tec P3AT.

Never thought of that. As soon as I pull out of my slump I will have to try that

I've always used an interal belt or AFPS waistpack. But running with a normal sized gun just sucks. If I'm on the road, I'll carry when I run. In my neighborhood, I don't.

If recent events haven't convinced you that even 'safe neighborhoods' aren't, nothing will. Carry everywhere, no exceptions.

Works fine until a stray dog decides to start chewing on you.

A Seecamp 380 is a very handy pistol. I love mine. I have given away several to close friends and relatives. Everyone that I know that has one (both sexes) feel the same way about theirs as I feel about mine.

That's what mace is for. If you catch them in the six, they spend a great deal of time and effort trying to outrun their own tail. Works fine until a stray dog decides to start chewing on you.
