We're all familiar with the Urban Carry holster and I'm sure not many of us would ever carry using it, myself included. That being said, the concept of deep concealment before the beltline with a fast draw is a good idea, so I thought maybe the Magazine Holster would be okay, since a spare mag doesn't need to meet the same accessibility or safety requirements of the gun itself. So I tried it out and will be promptly returning it since I found it's not for me.Pics: http://bit.ly/2IwnDwx will comment about the reflective tape I have on the slide. It's there because it is often used to differentiate good guys from bad guys where I live, and my physical look is a lot like the bad guys here, so I use it to try to decrease the chances of accidentally getting shot by another good guy.)Pros:+ Quality. Say what you will, the leather, the stitching, the clip, and the magnet are high quality and durable materials.+ Smooth draw, as advertised+ Easily holds Glock 17 mag with good retention.+ Conceals pretty well in jeans+ Fairly comfortableCons:- Simply too big for every day carry. See pics comparing to G17 magazine and G17. This is the deal breaker for me- Does not conceal as well in slacks because the pants material doesn't hold the holster close to the body.- Too bulky at the beltline (it creates a large gap between your belt and your body.)If it weren't literally the size of my forearm, then maybe it would be worth carrying, but I don't need a giant piece of equipment just to hold a mag that i can easily slip into my pocket.TLDR, it's okay, but the holster is much bigger than some of the guns you guys carry, so way too big for EDC in my opinion. via /r/CCW http://bit.ly/2I5Yl9B
