Style is a pin-stripe suit. Now that would merrit like six guns, hidden through-out the body; and a pinstripe fedora...with metal brim of course. Naw, if you're gonna do that, then you'll be needing a pair of blued-steel 1911s, for maximum .45's a-blazin' The Shadow style. On topic, if you don't mind something somewhat ghetto, you can occasionally fit a pistol in a rifle magpouch. Depends on the pouch and pistol, but I've done even more ghetto things in my day.

I put my 1911 into one of my rifle mag pouches, worked pretty good to and kept it from jiggling around and kept it close to my body. It was easy to reach too

yeah, i've put one of my berretta's in the rifle mag pouch in the front of my vest... seemed to work out pretty well why would i rather have 3 guns than 3 extra mags? well, a: the guns are already loaded and ready for action. b: i'm picking up hado's usp when i get payed. that puits me at 3 pistols, since i already own two. and the price he's asking is cheaper than just one extra mag for my berretta's. c: as mentioned... style i thoguht about the belt thing, but i am not a fan of belt holsters... i'm a skinny guy and things tend to slide around too much on my belt for my taste.

I have four pistols, currently. I deal with the problem by leaving 2-3 of them at home and maybe one in the car.
One sidearm and a couple mags can be handy if your AEG breaks. I've had maybe three occasions to draw a sidearm b/c my AEG was broken. I've had n occasions, where n is a feckin' large number, where I ran out of ammo for my AEG. Thus and therefore, I'd much rather carry extra mags than extra guns. A mag is lighter than GBB and typically carries twice as many rounds. The AEG probably has a higher muzzle velocity. It's definitely more accurate. From a tactical standpoint, the extra pistols are so much useless weight.
Now, if it's a pure style thing, you need a better gun belt and some sweet leather from someplace like Galco.

I suppose I will show you a pic of a vest that a team mate mine has. De50man bought it from some place. No idea of the maker or where it's from. But have a look. www.pbase.com/teamsocom/image/25911209 I had many disbeliefs that he could actually draw that thing in a timely fashion and not loose it. Seemed to work out okay for him. Hopefully if he says this he will add something about it.

I meant gunleather.... but in any case, why are you blowing money on more pistols when you don't own an AEG?

I think we've technically left the arena of 'tactical' and entered the carnival of 'costume'.

i know that this is an INCREDIBLY old thread, but i found a way to do it! my crappy phone-cam might not show it well enough, but here's trying www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid204/p3f2583e7c7a8ac7d602b3feda2eaa1f0/ef504173.jpgwhat i did is take an el-cheapo tactical thigh holster (the 10 dollar variety), strip the buckles off them and put the double-buckle(?) segments on the straps with the velcro. then i weaved the velcro up through the back of the middle webbing section on my tac vest, up to the top loop. i don't know about other vest brands, but i know BH vests have the soft-sided velcro right there, so i attached it there. repeated for both leg straps with the velcro ends. then i took the no-velcro straps and weaved them under the bottom webbing loops all the way to the top, over, and back down through the buckles. will follow-up how it holds in the field tomorrow. i apologize for improper grammar and run-on sentences, but it's 5am and i have a case of pre-game insomnia
