Sneaky Pete EDC Holsters and Wheelchair Use (or normal use)

I experimented with a number of methods for carrying my primary CCW pistol, a Glock 26, but none turned out to be ideal. Then I tried a Sneaky Pete. The concept behind the Sneaky Pete is simple: It’s a gun concealment system that doesn’t scream “He’s got a gun!”, this is a bit more subtle looking like a cellphone case, first aid kit, flatter binoculars case, or outdoors gearcase. The Sneaky Petes can be had with either belt loops or belt clips. I ordered the version with belt clips so I could slide them over the Kydex straps on my wheelchair. The gun fits perfectly into a gun-specific Kydex insert, and the holster’s flap is held in place by twin magnets. It’s a secure system, but here it’s important to note I used the Sneaky Pete in a way it’s not specifically designed to be used—because the belt clips are intended to be used with an actual belt and not Kydex 6 inch "belt". As mentioned, the Sneaky Pete features a gun-specific Kydex insert that holds the gun. It is also designed to prevent your finger from getting inside the trigger guard on the draw. About the draw. Getting a proper grip is an acquired skill because your firing hand is not immediately able to surround the gun as it would when drawing from an inside- or outside-the-waistband holster. The draw starts with moving the magnetically closed flap with the fingertips. With the Glock 26 at least, I found that by using my middle two fingers to begin the draw, as the pistol withdraws from the Kydex insert I was able to get my pinky at the bottom of the grip—trigger finger indexed along with the frame. How well did it work? When I first got it I did a lot of dry-fire work. And I spent a considerable amount of range time working with it, drawing and firing from a stationary position as well as moving and firing. Now, I am not the fastest gun in the West by any means. Not at first, of course, but within a month of training time I’d gotten my technique down to 2 seconds, I am completely confident I could deploy the gun properly and swiftly should the need arise. The only change I would suggest is, I’d like to see tan, flat dark earth, coyote tan, olive drab, and camo offered as colors. The current green is nice, but it’s such a “green green” that it stands out when used with a natural-color hunting-style pack. Second, and is MOLLE-style straps with snaps would be a nice third option. The Sneaky Pete is available in a number of colors and fitments for many popular guns. Styles include belt loops and belt clips. Price is $45 to $70.
