    Interesting. I have an inexpensive Kydex IWB holster with one of those plastic clips that don't always hold on the belt well. So I am thinking about getting some Kydex sheets and make a 2" long "tunnel" loop. The clip attaches by two screws so I can drill it so that it makes an IWB cross draw that won't pull out with the gun.

    I am a huge fan of hockey tape. It works wonders instead of medical tape and it is cheap and very durable/long-lasting as well as comfortable against the body. Hockey tape is available at most sporting goods stores for only a few bucks a roll and has some friction qualities so it keeps the holster and gun from moving around and shifting under your garments. It's also most usually available in black which matches the kydex nicely. I did exactly as you showed -wrapped the entire holster as well as let the foam go down and around the muzzle area to increase the keel effect and pad that area too for those times when I'm bent over double hard it does really help the poking. I get almost a year of daily carry before the tape needs to be touched up.

    Pistol packing for 50+ years and learned something new ! Former lawmen get lazy about concealment because they have a "mastershield" to bail out of social errors of being detected, and civilian business types too, because its "assumed" that the clean cut dapper gunslinger is an offduty or plain clothes Officer. Have Gun Will Travel must be discreet.

      The Enigma is designed for appendix carry. You might be able to shift a belly band around more easily, but that’s typically to account for some other shortcoming (uncomfortable or doesn’t conceal well in specific circumstances, necessitating a quick adjustment).

    I have a Beiler's leather cow collar that makes a great CCW belt. It's very thick leather, 1.5" wide, but it's also still flexible horizontally. You can find them at most farm supply stores, I treated mine with Feibing's neetsfoot oil, which you can also find at the farm supply. Obviously, it's a very casual belt, great for jeans, not so much for dress wear. I have also made a belt for myself out of polyester webbing and polyester and latex elastic, using plastic Fastex-type buckles, but it is better inside pants, and the plastic buckles can tend to be too wide to fit through many belt loops.
