Forgive me if this is done to death; I was just interested in some statistics and didn't find it in the archives.

If your just doing it for statistics cool, but if your trying to get an idea for what you should do, then you really need to try them out and see which one you prefer.

ah cool, was just throwing out a word of caution cause a lot of people just go with whatever everyone else does, and thats not always best for them lol.

I also carry IWB Strong side. I can get my shirt up and draw the best with it there, a little to the front actually with a slight angle that draws with my natural arm motion.

I was torn, say hypothetically if I carried at work were firearms are not allowed I would pocket carry my g23 (it does work nice in a sidearmor). If not at work I carry IWB at 4:00. So I'd say hypothetically its a 50/50

I actually carry "none of the above" But IWB Strong side was as close as I could get. ClipDraw at 1:00.

Oh I guess to put a timeface on where I carry it would be about 2:00 maybe like 2:30 cause it's just off my 3. I dont know how people carry at 4, anytime i've tried, sitting down becomes near impossible. Also cant draw for crap sitting down at 4.
