I feel the need to address something people have been bringing up, some fears about a vape case being mistaken for a gun holster.
As someone who carries both, and at the same time no less, I may have some insight on this.
This is not the place to get into political stuff (other than
vaping) so going to try to avoid that to the best of my ability.
The below comments are my opinion only, and so are worth about as much as kydex dust.
Cell phones: Everybody has them, a lot of people carry them in cases on the belt.
While law enforcement will sometimes mistake a phone for a gun, usually there is a lot more to the story.
I hope I am never in a situation that would cause an officer to be jacked up on adrenalin, and if I am you can bet I will follow all instructions and not make sudden or threatening movements.
Ergonomics: Drawing a gun from a holster is very different than casually getting my vape out for a pull.
I can tell the difference, you can tell the difference, and I would hope LEO's would be able to tell the difference too.
The hand is not grabbing a ...., rather it is more like taking a phone out of a case to check a call. Different wrist position, different body mechanics, different intent.
I may do a video showing both, and why one cannot easily be mistaken for the other.
Printing: This is the outline of whatever you are wearing under your shirt. The hardest thing to conceal on a handgun is the ...., the grip of the gun.
A handgun .... under a tight tshirt is unmistakeable. I make concealed carry holsters, and have to do things to my product to make this less apparent.
Some states have laws about this very thing, and you must pass certain criteria to be a legal handgun concealed carrier in those states.
A PV, however the shape, does not print like a handgun. Especially with an atty on there. It looks like anything but a gun, especially when in one of my cases.
The only thing I have seen that comes close is "The Gripper" mod, but that is a very unusual thing.
People: They don't notice things. Most people are so caught up in their own little bubble they will not see your vape under a shirt. Even if they do it looks more like a cell phone than anything else.
Too busy texting, checking facebook, or taking selfies to pay attention to you. Situational awareness? Ha! I have yet to have anyone comment on my handgun, but then again I dress for it and wear good gear.
Sure putting something on your belt may be different for you, but it's not unusual, and to most people not worth noticing.
Concealment: If you are worried about this, just pull the shirt up behind the atty. Easy and painless, and even wearing my mods like this nobody notices. Except vapers, who say that my case is awesome.
Or tuck your shirt in you slobs! Sorry, channeled one of my DI's there for a second.
Hey if you think my product is not for you then that's ok. But this "might be a handgun" thing is kinda silly to me.
Again only my opinion, and if you feel differently then that's cool too. I wonder if diabetics with insulin pumps on their belts have this same fear?
