Or is it just a case of Form over Function?

If it holds the damn gun its functional. Everything else like placement, is a matter of training.

I haven't seen it used by any official military or police, so I figured it was just an aesthetic thing people did to feel more like operators, or some shit.

So I made this really long post about how I think they're comfy as fuck if you have a good carrier that fits, but then I hit escape and it closed the damn text box. So fuck it.

If you would have ever been in a car with a gun on your hip and tried to draw it you would understand this concept...

It's used in vehicles/mounted infantry.

Are you sitting in a Vic for a long time and are a driver or A driver? Then yeah that could work. Same thing can be said for Helicopter Pilots.

Replace it with a not-shitty kydex holster and it'd be pretty dank for vehicle carry.

>>31056640
if its the same quality of onesize fits all condor bullshit it wont even do that
>>
Who made the carrier?

We're talking about general chest mounted holsters?
The GIGN use it

Chest holsters always seem to sit so high up.
Wouldn't something like this have better accessibility?
Its more of a belly holster but still.

I don't fully understand the concept of chest holsters, but I assume that it's that high so that you can drop a shouldered weapon and immediately draw up and ready without the slight delay of moving your hand down and back up
>>
Chest holsters are used by a lot of police (special) forces operating out of vehicles.
Try drawing from you leg holster while sitting in the car, especially if you are sitting on the right side (if you are carrying on your right of course). While doable, drawing from a chest holster is far easier, safer and faster-
