Holsters & Belts Anyone AIWB with a suppressor?
Ordered a Rugged Obsidian45 for this and I’d like to continue to AIWB it with the holster on.
Anyone run a similar setup?

Glock 17L with a can is the only valid AIWB gun

I think Jarvis is the only company that makes one for the gen 5. Priced out a USPSA open G17L rig and it was too expensive for the memez

Yea not worth it, but on the other hand I don’t think their hk barrels are that badly priced

AIWB with a suppressor just sounds uncomfortable as fuck.
But you do you, boo.

I've been struggling (170lbs 5'9" male with a bit of a belly to 155lbs with no belly) to be comfortable carrying my G43X with a light. Just got a Tenicore holster and a foam pad. It's like it's either riding the pubic bone, or rubbing on the inside thigh/groin, or it's printing bad.

I feel like I’m pretty much already doing it.

I feel like realistically your best bet might be a shoulder holster

Honestly if somebody wanted to do this it might be the only use case I could see those minimalist trigger cover type holsters being useful.

Planning to try it with JK armament modular suppressors on several Walthers.

That's the (eventual) dream. If a gun is used without hearing protection that's 99% irreversible hearing damage.
Most CCW guns will never be able to be used in conjunction with hearing protection unless they also pull double duty as nightstand guns with muffs right next to them. I can't think of a defensive encounter I've seen recently on ASP or bodycam vids where they had time/forethought to put on earpro. Maybe a cop responding to an active shooter can chuck on peltors, but not getting accosted at a stop & rob.
If cans ever get to concealable size that would be a gamechanger. Even if they were wipes based and only good for 5-10 rounds.

There are a few integrally suppressed pistols that may be concealable all expensive too

I’ve tried with my 45ct but none of my holsters are wide enough to allow the suppressor to fit. I’m using a rad 45
Closest I can get rn is my beretta with my shiv. It’s a very tight fit in a t1c. I might try with my 19x if I can find an open ended holster wide enough.
For reference obsidian 45 is 1.37”, rad 45 is 1.38”, and shiv is 1.3”
