Concealment Garment Vs. Firearm Retention

CCW VestWhen a CCW carrier is carrying a firearm in the winter, we can understand why they may want a firearm in a pocket outside of their body, but I recommend putting some thought into how you wear your clothing and how a firearm can be reached in when wearing heavy clothing.  Jackets that hold firearms will have to come off if you’re in a house or building that gets  hot, so then what do you do with  your gun?  The Eotac Style 102 CCW Vest is cut very long and is great for concealing in warm weather, but not a firearm retention vest.

We have been getting a lot of confused customers that think every piece of clothing is suppose to HOLD a firearm.   Tactical Pants, Tactical Shirts, Tactica Vests and Tactical Jackets aren’t necessarily replacements for a holster.   Although being able to fit a firearm in a pocket is possible with all of the above, trying to stuff a Glock 30 in a vest that is made of basically the same thing as a T-Shirt isn’t a good idea.  We’ve had a few angry emails and phone calls from customers this year that tried to do that and said we were falsely advertising the vest as a CCW Vest and it was not.  Well…….
