I wasn't going to post these as 99.99% of us have zero use for them in this country. So in the sense of just sharing interesting things devoid of practical use for CGNers I present to you the Techna Clip which is a simple screw on pocket clip for some pistols to simplify the carry method.

I was walking by the booth and the guy called me over to check them out. I told him I was from Canada and we don't have carry rights so I didn't want to waste his time but they were pretty interesting so I took some photos and chatted with him for a moment. I am a knife guy and carry a pocket knife every day with a pocket clip so with that mindset I thought this was an interesting concept. I"ll leave it to you guys to debate the practicality of it.

Since I wasn't interested in doing a full article on these I am very light on the details.

They are pretty simple, a pocket clip that you can attach to your pistol. Either on the frame or the slide depending on the model. They were bright colored at the show simply to highlight them. The real ones would be more black, etc.









 
Nothing stopping the trigger from getting snagged in your pocket.
Good way to shoot your own nuts off.

You would need to carry condition 2 only. (empty chamber)
 
I have one of those for my glock it does clip nicely in the pocket but ive never actuallyused it in real life carry situation so I dont know how safe it is
 
I ordered a few of these for Glock's in stock as one of my customers is a 'snow bird' and put it on his 'vacation' glock 27. Its a pretty slick set up for the price. Includes a new backing plate, the spring clip and hardware as required to put it on.
Although the only vice might be the blow your nuts off factor, but if you think about it; it is safer than having a loaded G27 moving around loose in your pocket. They'll be up on the web page next week.
 
Interesting, nice that someone started a clip that bolts on.

These have been around for years, but they have always used 3M VHB adhesive (the same stuff your GoPro mounts use) to secure the clip to the slide.

One of the pictures show clipped on the belt inside-waistband carry, so... bunched up tucked-in shirt, fat rolls, the fabric of the pants themselves... all move ard are sharing space with the trigger
 
Interesting concept, but yeah nothing blocking the trigger. No bueno.
Something like the Raven Concealment Vanguard or Vanguard 2 seems like a way better option.
 
Finally an alternative to the Clipdraw, which is exactly the same, that still allows me to carry a gun without having to put any stupid protection around the trigger!

Especially ideal for Glocks with lightened triggers. The nice part is that since nobody's ever shot themselves while reholstering on a proper holster, we can totally guarantee that nobody will EVER shoot themselves with one of these.

Another plus...with a MSRP of thirty-five bucks, you can finally have a carry solution that doesn't cost an outrageous sixty or seventy dollars, because that matters.

doesnt matter, when sitting down or moving around you could nudge against something, i would not feel comfortable without the trigger covered, but im in Canada so ill never have to worry about that now will I.
