Stupid Question for LEOs
Do criminals use holsters? Seriously.

They use IWB holsters, without the holster. Just a tight belt and and some baggy pants is all they need.Originally Posted by Jordanls19

Not a cop but I'd suspect most criminals don't use holsters ... for one thing they cost money and for another if you have to ditch your gun, having a holster left behind is going to make it harder to deny you had a gun on you.
Modern liberalism is based on the idea that reality is obligated to conform to one's beliefs because; "I have the right to believe whatever I want".

A World Without Guns <- Great Read!
They RARELY even know how to WORK a gun, let alone use the proper gear
Plus you have to look at the way criminals "own" guns ... often times they're passed around like communal bicycles are among hipsters.
Last time I bought leather for a gun it was a drawn out process that involved research, ordering and waiting. For most criminals the gun isn't going to be in their posession long enough to hunt down or order leather.

You should have said "Hoodrats" LOl.
They pass around hoodrats
In 20+ years of law enforcement, I have never saw a street criminal using a holster. I can't say that a holster is an indicator that the wearer is not a criminal, but if the question relates to Open Carry, then I would not be concerned about someone wearing a pistol in a holster.
Most cops will be able to tell you stories about "buffs," which is what we called the reserve officers or the "wannabe" types who have a lot of gear, like red lights in their cars, tactical vests, handcuffs, OC spray (think Dog the Bounty Hunter types). These guys could be annoying, but for the most part they were harmless. Some of them had guns and carried in holsters, but they were always scrupulous about the law. Often they were more punctilious about the law than most officers.
Hard to find a holster to accommodate these...
Light a fire for a man, and he'll be warm for a day, light a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life...
Discussion is an exchange of intelligence. Argument is an exchange of
ignorance. Ever found a liberal that you can have a discussion with?
I'm sure Nargoheli could make us one.Hard to find a holster to accommodate these...

For the most part, no. They don't want any evidence of them having a gun if they are contacted by law enforcment and LE finding a holster makes them want to search that much more for the gun that was in it.
Ocassionally, you will find the cheap soft nylon ones (emphasis on cheap) that they keep it in when not carrying it around. They are usually found in vehicles or apartments.

That is Honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it.
