I work as an undercover dope LEO and have used ankle holsters, small of back, detetive holsters, cross draw...etc. I have been in situations where I had to draw my weapon. Having to pull up your pants leg while bending over or standing on one leg when you got two people trying to beat the shit out of you sucks point blank. It has been proven that having your weapon in a location that can not be utilized from the three most dominate positions (ie-standing, sitting, or lying down) is tactical suicide. You have to be able to practice gun retention as well as your ability to effectively draw your weapon and engage a target. In my opinion you should try caring your weapon on your strong hand side. And if you wear your shirt tucked in you can get a in the pants holster. GALLS sells alot of them.
