I would like to suggest that we simplify the holster rule. The problem with the current rule book is that an exception was made for females BECAUSE their bodies were not the same as male bodies. OK, with this logic......many of us with expanding waistbands, etc are not the same either.
I would keep the basic rule as it currently is but instead of the "belt-daylight" rule, just simply make it the 3/4' rule. As long as there isn't more than 3/4 inch from body to grip then it's fine. For those that might want to "slouch and buldge" to make it only 3/4....then put in "while standing at attention" or some similar wording.

just use a "as long as the gun doesnt fall out rule" what the heck difference does it make what kinda holster I use ? a run of the mill Blade tech isnt disadvantaged by any holster on the market.
