If you are a runner, what do you carry, and how?
More often than not, I have opted for a fixed blade. But I am trying to regularly carry a micro desert eagle in an open-top pouch on a runners belt, which seems to work pretty well. I prefer the weight and constriction at my hip rather than shoulders. I run 9-12 miles every other day. At that distance it is less appealing to trudge along with an uncomfortable option.
The micro de fits well, and the pouch both keeps it mostly away from sweat and isn't visibly a holster unless up close. I can also draw relatively smoothly, and there is minimal bounce.
The micro de is the micro I have -- though it brings some benefits. With its short barrel it fits both pouch and waistpack pockets better than an lcp. The nickel finish will also resist corrosion. The trigger has serrations and is DAO, which I think better for drawing and shooting with sweety hands. It shoots small for a small gun, though the trigger guard batters my middle finger.
But it is a bit heavy for a pocket 380, and the shorter barrel makes the round even more anemic.
Not completely satisfied, I would like to find a stable and secure way to run with my p365 that keeps it 1) accessible, 2) mostly away from sweat, and 3) concealed. Any ideas would be appreciated.
Also just interested to hear the compromises others have made ...
