You would think so, and I was hoping so. My discs were competely herniated and smashed the nerves. I'm liucky I wasn't paralyzed and I may have permanent damage. I was in this state for over a year and I had a lot of nerve damage from it and a prior surgery in 2004. My last surgery took 2 1/2 years for my nerves to quiet down without implants. I'm having a pretty hard time on and off with nerve pain, muscle spasms, and mostly discomfort in any position. No meds but a drink of whiskey takes the edge off. When I get muscles spasms it feels like a cheese grater, as they rub against the titanium. I sleep 2-4 hours a night before I wake up from tossing and turning from discomfort. I had a job interview last week. I was able to wear a belt for 2 hours before shooting pains started hindering walking. I wear khakis without a belt when me and my wife go out. From what the doctor tells me it takes a year for the vertebrae to fuse, which I am feeling pretty solid, and it takes another year for the nerves to quiet down. I wish I was in better shape for sure.

Look at the military pilots shoulder holster...

Ok guys so so far I have been using a remora, sticky holster, and a Vedder belly band for my Sig P938. The remora I like better than the sticky for iwb, but when I get in and out of the car I have to remove the holster. The sticky works well for my coat pocket. The belly band I do not have to remove, but after a while I have to take it off to give my back a break. So I am looking for something I don't have to keep messing with. I like my WWII tank gunner holster for my 1911 around the house and also like the galco Miami classic shoulder holster, but I can't conceal my 1911, lol.

So I was looking at a Guides choice holster from Double Diamond (not sure if this will conceal well, but I like you can position and secure the weapon with the pull strap.)

Or KirkPatrick custom shoulder holster custom fits the 938 (I called and asked)

I am leaning towards the kirkPatrick unless someone has better suggestions. 190$ is expensive, but it's custom fit, carries mags, and I should have no issues concealing... Hopefully. Again the problem lies with belts and discomfort of wearing Iwb, so right now that is not an option. Thanks!

They look awesome, and I've heard great things about Kirkpatrick. I'm pretty much ready to pull the trigger on the X400 shoulder holster. I was also looking at a Cooks IWB kydex holster (easy to conceal the bare gun at 4 oclock and can actually sit down). It has very minimal material due to its thin and rounded edges and I could wear a cloth belt, but I keep running into what if I can't wear a belt that day. So why spend almost 70$ when I could put that towards the X400.

I contacted Kirkpatrick and they also reccomended the K400 detective model which is $120 instead of $195. I would lose the mag pouches, but the mags are so small I can put them in my pocket. The only downside I can think of is the shoulder holster with the mag pouch would print a small bulge on both sides under my arm. I am wondering if the detective model would be more obvious with a lump showing on only one side under my armpit. Does anyone have a K400 detective model that they could share their experience?
