The holster I got is almost identical to the one you suggested, but made by a guy by the name of <a href="http://www.hbeleatherworks.com/" rel="nofollow">Eric</a>. As for belts, I seriously thought about one just like the Wilderness Tactical, but I like leather - what can I say :). I ended up going with a 5.11 model today - I figure I cannot go wrong with them.

My first carry was to Borders Book Store. I was concerned about the anti-theft gate at the entrance, but it didn't make a peep. If you're looking for a good IWB, check out Dave Workman @ DandDGunleather.com. Extremely good holsters and very fast turn-around. Instructors belt from Wilderness Tactical works great as well for holsters. Cheap, adjustable length and stiff as needed. Congratulations! My first carry was to Borders Book Store.

I definitely have a good holster (though I am wondering at my single-clip choice), but have come to the realization that my Fossil belt... does not quite cut it. Any suggestions? I am leaning towards a Maxpedition Ligerskin, but am open to any help. Thank you both.

With a good holster and belt, the physical weight becomes normal. I can't carry at work, and I'm used to that. Anyplace else and I feel strange without it. Congratulations!
