Looking for a way to carry a 6" 629 all day in rough terrain. I have two ideas in mind: (1) a Diamond D Guides Choice Chest Holster and (2) a wide 2.5" duty belt which will be worn over my pants with an appropriate holster such as a Simply Rugged Cattleman.
I'm concerned with overall comfort mainly.
My main concern about the chest holster is that the strap will dig it's way into my shoulder and cause discomfort. My main concerns about a large belt is that it might work my pants down (I suppose a pair of suspenders could solve that, though) or that it might rub my bony hips raw (I'm 6'2" but still very skinny and small framed, which means my hip bones stick out. They've been rubbed awfully raw by the end of the day by some waist straps on certain back packs, so it's something I always have in mind.)
I'd like to hear from people that have used either or both forms of carry and have opinions on their plusses and negatives, and perhaps also hear particular problems they've caused them.
Catch you later,
GTS9
