??? Wondering ??? Fellow IWB CCW ? Do you wear your holster clipped to your pants or do you clip it over your belt as well?? I normally wear my Bianchi with my PA-63 just clipped over my pants and under the belt. It looks like thats the way it was meant to worn,because of the way the clip is designed? Just like to know ya'll method and the reason you wear it like you do.

I wear the Bianchi 100 Professional and clip the belt as well. The clip has a large bent leading edge that, to me, looks like it's supposed to go over the belt. Over the belt it is very secure. Hell, it holds my pants up!

If you have a Bianchi, or most any other brand of waistband holster with the spring steel clip, then I would suggest that you clip it over the belt too, especially if the edge of the clip is angled in a manner to keep it in place when you draw your weapon. A lot of “older” designs, even by big brand names are just worthless junk and could get their users killed in a gun fight; avoid them. Personally, I like the holsters that have leather straps that go around the belt and snap in place. I can only wear mine during jacket weather, but that is the most assuring holster short of wearing an “outside the pants” holster.

My Galco's clip rolls under which means over the belt. I believe if it rolls outward it should go under the belt.

BUT, now that I have the clipdraw I don't use my IWB anymore.
