Let me get this out of the way: I'm not asking anyone to time their draw from concealment.
But I'm curious as to whether draw speed has anything to do with what gun you conceal carry, and how you carry it.
I was doing a little quick draw hip shooting this weekend, both with and without a cover garment. The gun was a 4.2" GP100, in an OWB holster strong side hip. Pretty quick without the cover garment (though I won't be winning any competitions any time soon). But with a cover garment (unbuttoned shirt) it is notably slower and a far call from the smoothness of drawing sans cover garment. I still wouldn't say as slow as some other methods though.
How much does speed of access play a part in your conceal carry decisions?
