Could you enlighten some of us novices as to what is "Mexican carry".xmirage2kx said:The only time I could ever see using something like this while carrying would be if I were to Mexican carry a Glock. That being said I would NEVER Mexican carry a Glock. Thus it is a worthless product.
Mexican Carry: To carry a pistol inside the waistband with no holster, typically between the 11-o-clock and 1-o-clock position.ian husford said:Could you enlighten some of us novices as to what is "Mexican carry".

Actually my son took a glock in .45 cal. and used the pocket clip (3rd party accessory), a heavy 8.5 lb "New York" trigger and the trigger block to create a very concealable and safe method of carry without a holster. HOWEVER - if you don't have that much experience around Glocks - I would not recommend this mode of carry (i.e. Don't try this at home kids).xmirage2kx said:+1GeneticsDave said:Mexican Carry: To carry a pistol inside the waistband with no holster, typically between the 11-o-clock and 1-o-clock position.ian husford said:Could you enlighten some of us novices as to what is "Mexican carry".
It usually is a bad idea with any gun, but Mexican carrying guns with a passive safety is an even worse idea.
I've heard and seen this before. The little clip that goes on the side of you Glock slide. It allows you to clip the gun directly onto your pants or belt without a holster. I still don't think that's smart, it allows dirt and dust bunnies to get into your gun and it has the potential of partially cycling your slide if you push down on the grip (when trying to achieve a grip for drawing you could partially cycle the slide and jam a round just when you need to gun to work).shadeslanding said:Actually my son took a glock in .45 cal. and used the pocket clip (3rd party accessory), a heavy 8.5 lb "New York" trigger and the trigger block to create a very concealable and safe method of carry without a holster.

It was needed for a deep cover back-up carry. And it works.
No offense taken. As I said... this form of carry is not for those who are not intimately familiar with their weapon. It was a very good deep cover mode of carry where other modes would have been unavailable.I don't recommend that anyone use this style of carry unless you are:
This information is not meant to offend anyone, especially shadeslanding, it's just meant to illustrate that there are many preconceived notions out there that are just plain wrong, and quite frankly, dangerous. With a little research and ingenuity, one can conceal very effectively and safely.
- Very, very cautious!
Know the weapon you are carrying inside and out
Carry this way simply because necessity required you to carry more firearms than you have holsters for and you have run out of suitable pockets
