It might be a bit of a silly question and this might not be the proper forum, but it does involve my 29SF. Here I go:

I am using a Comp-Tac Mtac holster (IWB) for my G29. The holster itself is very comfortable. The 29 seems to fit nicely. The problem is when I am wearing it, the weight of the combo drags my pants down. :lol: The obvious answer would be to make my belt tighter. Unfortunately, the proper tightness to hold my pants up makes it uncomfortable around my waist.

Has anybody had a similar experience and what was your solution? Please, dieting is not an option. :lol:

I used to carry a compact 1911, but found it too heavy for carry. It would often make my pants sag on one side. When I do conceal carry, I usually grab my Kahr CW9 because it's light. I haven't tried carrying any of my Glocks concealed, but they work great openly carried.

I can only suggest trying a different holster (although the MTac usually works well) or getting a lighter and thinner gun. Maybe make the Glock your winter carry gun.

I'm personally not a fan of concealed carry for comfort reasons.

You need a better stiffer belt.

I listed these by order of personal preference. These types of belts are specifically made to carry the weight of a gun. You have a quality rig witht he comp-tac but a heavy gun so you need a good foundation, of a quality belt.

Yes ^^^ this exactly, the right belt will make all the difference and you won't have to lasso yourself to get things to hang where they should.

Had the same trouble with a few of my....lets call them less practical belts, when I first started carrying until I stepped up to a more suitable pants fastener.

What type of belt clips are you using? J-hooks will drag your pants down even with a good belt.

Well in the words of he old Cajun chef and commedian Justin Wilson, he stated "he was A professional member of the American Society of Safety Engineers, Justin never quit wearing both a belt and suspenders—there were some things he’d just never leave to chance. ".

I agree with above: don't use J-hooks (since the PANTS hold up the gun with them), and get a good belt made for guns. They will make all the difference.

in certain part of my town, that would be normal. :rofl:

Yeah, but the holster would make it unusual.
