...Accessing a firearm from an IWB holster...
The last class I took was ACT's Low Light class. I remember having problems drawing and holstering because of the heavy sweatshirt and my Carhartt coat I was wearing. I had to tuck the sweatshirt into my jeans, and it still didn't help because of the IWB holster I was using, the MTAC.
I'm still looking for a better way to dress in the cold.
Maybe your gun isn't the first go-to in every scenario. Where do you carry your primary and back-up knives, or your flashlight? Even in warm weather, those may be the better defensive choice.
OP: I would really like to do more cold weather training. I absolutely hate cold weather and always overdress, which some INGO members have noticed. I would like to see how my body and brain communicate in a less pleasurable climate, without having the ability to depend on others.
Flashlight in my left pocket, knife in my right.
I'd still feel better if I could come up with a way to have my gun more accessible in the winter time.
Will the same holster allow an appendix carry? You skinny guys can get by with that. Some folks swear by such a carry method.

Skinny? Hah! I wish.
I dunno, I've never actually tried this holster for Appendix carry. It's the regular Comp-TAC MTAC. They DO make an Appendix carry model.
I'll have to give it a try.
Go on, say it
...I dare ya.
What? Strap it on and carry like a man.
Obviously, you are a fine model of manly pistola carry.
I was waiting for the Ginge' to respond.
Ahhh. Now I see. Maybe he should just lay a 12 gauge on the dash of the Jeep and let it go at that.
Do his guns function in the snow?
Better question... Does he function in the snow????
