I've taken to wearing BDU-style pants (specifically, the Tru-Spec STU brand) at work for their durability and comfort, and was wondering if anyone had seen a holster that could be mounted in the thigh pocket.
I've been wanting to get a snubbie for awhile, stag grips and all, but I can't see how I can fit one in the front pocket as they are small and tight. On the STU thigh pockets, Tru-Spec uses velcro instead of buttons so access is quicker, relatively, than on milspec BDU's, and there is plenty of room for a holster and good-sized pistol.
What I was thinking, was to buy one of those cheap nylon floppy holsters and velcro it to the inside leg. With a pull-through retention strap, you should be able to hold the weapon firmly in position but not so firmly that you couldn't break the snap.
Any thoughts? Sound like a good idea? I still haven't decided on the pistol, except that it will be stainless, no locks, and chambered for .357 magnum.
