I'm both interested and apprehensive.... =|

Suspiciously looked like she pointed it at her boob on the draw, several times.

I wonder if the undershirt holster from Kramer would be more practical; albeit much slower on the draw.

I would have to see a more detailed photo of the holster in use to make a judgement on it.

Product designed by men for their dumb little wimmons. ;/

In the interests of science and safety, I went back and watched the video again, with special attention paid to her boobs. :angel:
I think it might be possible for a gal to point at herself, but I don't think that gal did.
-
Actually watching the video from a safety point of view... *HONESTLY*
I don't like the fact that the muzzle is pointing at her elbow on the draw stroke, and that reholstering looks a bit complicated, again with the muzzle pointed right at her elbow...

Paxton Quigley came out with a bra holster once. (shrug)
I do see some potential upsides to that kind of carry. It's in a woman's personal space not likely to be bumped or felt in a public situation. It's got just about the most retention/defensibility, being right in front and between the arms. And it's always accessible, standing, sitting, or driving etc.
So from a first look standpoint, I could see it making some sense, assuming the woman in question is either too endowed, or too little to make it practical.
However I 100% agree that I'm willing to leave it up to other women if such a thing REALLY is practical, comfortable, or desirable.
Although if I can't get out of my current love-hate relationship with carbs, I may well soon be qualified to offer an opinion on the matter too. :-X

I didn't notice the elbow thing. I was paying too much attention to other, uh, safety concerns.
After thinking about it, I would rate this sort of carry, assuming it is secure, roughly equivalent to cross-draw, from a safety point of view.

A belly band ridding high does the same thing.

Somebody just has to come up with a boob-shaped gun. And a corresponding boob-shaped mag pouch.
That orta do it!
-
It does seem a little bizarre for a woman to flash her bare belly at her attacker right before she shoots him =|
Maybe that's all part of the plan: a momentary distraction ???

Read my comments, I address all the safety concerns thoroughly. QED

Is it really any worse than sticking a pistol into the nether regions via <deep boomng voice> ThunderrrrrrrWearrrr </deep booming voice>?

I just don't see how this could work well.....
The holster is suspended from a loop attached to the bridge b/t the cups...how is that comfortable and stable? And I don't see how it conceals well considering most of the women's form-fitting fashions these days.
The "sweeping problem" doesn't bother me much, being a fan of shoulder holsters. As long as you keep your booger hook off the bang switch, nothing's going to happen.
I don't see any of the women shooters I know wearing this one....

Well, no, you probably won't SEE it. You ain't got no game! :P

[momentarythreadveer] Break apart a head of cauliflower. Broil it. When done/browned/tender, mash it with a bit of butter and some garlic (salt, powder, fresh...whatever). Serve like mashed potatos. Put some gravy over it. DEADLY good! Better than taters![/momentarythreadveer]

And how many young, drunk teachers were you hanging out with last night?..... ;)

While it seems neat, I don't see how this guy plans to make any money.
Consider the following:
1.)I'd hazard that only a small percentage of those actively carrying a concealed handgun are females.
2.) This holster requires large breasts. I'd say a C cup is the minimum. What percentage of those gun toting women have large enough breasts? What percentage have perky enough breasts?

Perhaps he's not in it for the money.

He's filtering his responses.

The only possible answer to this is, not enough.

He's obviously working on building a dating site for gunnies, and building up contact info for hawt wimminz who like guns. =D
In all seriousness, I was a bit bothered by the elbow sweeps. It's a good carry location from a concealability standpoint, and it's a HELL of a way to give a rapist a wake-up (woman clenches arms to chest defensively, he thinks he's in control, then suddenly BANG and he's losing life by the ounce). It's a great decoy location for a victim demographic that tends to be targeted for attacks based on control and overpowering.
All in all, I wouldn't recommend the use of one if I were a woman unless I was a serious gunnie and understood the cross-arm concerns. The intent to market it to novices is a misleading safety concern.
