Charles, I have heard how comfortable your holster is, but that is nothing to experiencing it for myself. Thank you for an absolutely awsome holster. You have definately earned my recomendation.
Thanks again,
B. N. - Pleasant Hill, MOCharlie,
I must say that you have an AWESOME product. First, I have carried concealed here in Arizona since obtaining a concealed carry permit, almost 4 years ago. I have tried numerous holsters that "conceal your weapon", all create a print no matter the carry method. I have tried and tested numerous holster, and have a draw full to prove it. When I took the concealed carry permit course my instructor had the "Thunder Belt", well, dad and I both purchased them and said, ah, those might be good someday, but it can't hurt to have an extra holster around just in case. I kept coming back to the Thunder Belt as my primary holster. Long story short...we both prefer to carry our weapons in this Thunder Belt. All weapons (Glock's, Browning's, Beretta's, Kahr's) fit nicely and no one is the wiser that we are armed. We went through the entire ordeal of does it bulge and can anyone notice. Our conclusion is that we are "under the radar", and I carry a weapon usually 16-18 hours a day. I loaned mine to an under cover US Border Patrol and he ordered one immediately after using your product. After almost 4 years of continual use, the Thunder Belt has lasted and no apparent wear issues. What a remarkable product! Please post this to your web site if you want. Please only use my initials and state, out of respect to keep my identity undisclosed.

Webmaster's note: SmartCarry®'s used to be Thunder belt® as indicated on the homepage of our wesite. Same holster, different name.
Got the holster on Monday.
I wish every vendor delivered that quickly!
Great product, by the way. Every other holster I've tried has been a trade-off between comfort, concealment, and accessibility. SmartCarry has it all.

Dear Charlie and Carolyn,
Wow, what a terrific product! My security-model Smartcarry arrived a couple of weeks ago, and it has to be the best holster purchase I’ve ever made in my life. I deeply regret that I waited so long to try it out.
I wore my Glock 36 with two backup mags for a week, under my ordinary street clothes (jeans, business suits, shorts, dress slacks) without mentioning it to my wife. My wife is something of a fussbudget about clothing, and is never shy about telling me when there’s anything the least bit awry with my dress. SHE NEVER NOTICED IT. After trying it for a week, I showed her what I’d been carrying and told her how long I’d been doing it, and she was simply blown away. She said, “My God, you just can’t see it at all.”Now, when I first tried it on (my wife was out of town on business the evening that the Smartcarry arrived), I HATED it, and thought it would never work. With my jeans or shorts on and the Smartcarry positioned centered on my torso and worn low as recommended, the bulge of the Glock 36’s (admittedly short) grip seemed glaringly obvious to me. It was also bloody uncomfortable. I was sad, since Carolyn had been so nice when I placed my order, but I was resolved to sending it back the next day.
Well, the next day I decided to give it one more try. One thing I did right was that I put the straps on tighter. And I said, hey, if the gun’s butt is protruding (this was with jeans and shorts, not pleated dress pants), maybe it wants to be higher directly under the belt. And, maybe the gun itself should be “top dead center” (instead of centering the entire holster), to minimize the bulge of the grip frame.
Thank Heavens I tried it that way, because it worked perfectly. I have not been as happy with a holster or a concealed carry system EVER. I’ve worn this thing in so many different situations and doing so many different activities, and it just flat works. That’s not to say that a modicum of care isn’t required to keep everything hidden, but it’s so easy that it’s hard to believe. The Cushmax fabric has been 100% in protecting my Glock from sweat (it gets a little hot here in the Southwest), and the security pocket has been very handy a couple of times when I wanted to make sure a large sum of cash was safe on my person.
I continue to shock my wife when she learns I’m wearing it. She has never known that I was carrying my .45 in my Smartcarry. Thank you for a terrific product. You can bet I’ll be talking it up on the ‘net for years!
I’d like to especially thank Carolyn for her kind assistance when I ordered. I have a waist that measures 34” with a tape, but I wear 32” jeans and my hips are 37” around. I had NO IDEA which number to tell you when I ordered. Carolyn assured me that she’d send the right size (she sure did) and generally was so pleasant to talk to that my conversation with her made my day.
Anyway, I’ve rambled on long enough. God bless you folks, and thank you for the terrific product. (Please feel free to use my comments on your site, but I'd appreciate it if you just used my initials instead of my full name - thanks!)
cheers,
E. M. - Albuquerque, NMCharlie,
I ordered the security model on Sunday for my snubby. Received it on Wednesday and immediately put it to work.
It is exactly as you described!
Thank you very much.

place your order!Charlie,
You have one heck-of-a-holster system with the Smart Carry. I've been using mine for a little over two weeks and I'll never get a different type or brand of holster again. For me, this is holster perfection. Yesterday my son asked me why I wasn't carrying my new G23 anymore because he didn't see the bulge that it made with the belly band I was using. I turned away from him slightly (for safety) and drew the 23, while still sitting in my wheelchair, and his eyes got as big as saucers. I've been carrying in my Smart Carry all that time and he didn't have a clue!
What more can I say? It's a great design and a great holster. I'll probably be ordering another one before too long just so I can have a spare. You never know when a second one might come in handy.
Thank you, all of you involved in the process from design to manufacturing to sales to customer service. You're a winner in my book.

Charlie,
I am one of the most skeptical people you can meet, I should have been born in Missouri with a "Show Me" sign around my neck. I received the SmartCarry yesterday, wore it all day and no one was the wiser. I went to the grocery store twice, a restaurant and had it on in front of my kids and wife until bedtime and then I asked them to look me over and tell me if I was carrying, they all took a very close look from all angles and they couldn't see it.
I ordered a "Tuck This" holster from DeSanti at the same time that I ordered the SmartCarry and I've tried to wear it on numerous occasions and it doesn't even come close to yours, needless to say; I will be sending it back to DeSanti.
2 weeks later...I have now worn the SmartCarry to as many places as I could think of and nobody has had a clue. I was carrying a Springfield XD 3" and as you know, the XD's are pretty bulky and thick. There aren't many things that impress me anymore, so it is with great pleasure and humility that I bow to you and the superiority of your product; you can add me to the growing list of believers.
Sincerely,
J. P. - Carrollton, TX
Hi Charlie,
I ordered the Smartcarry Thursday or so of last week and received it on Tuesday. I immediately opened the package, read the instructions and went out to dinner afterwards.
I didn't get any funny looks or anything. I wore it today to work and a few of my customers know that I carry and could not tell it was there. I even took the time to show off (with a unloaded gun) and not one of them could tell it was there. I even asked my mother to see if she could tell and she had no idea. She usually looks at my side to see if there is a noticeable print, but she didn't know it was in the front.
I'm going to post my happiness on the KTrange forum when I get a chance in the next few days, look for the post under cloak I will probably put it in the accessories area of the forum. There are quite a few KTrangers and we all like to have new ideas for carrying..
Thanks Charlie
R. G. - Jacksonville, FLDEAR CHARLIE,
I RECEIVED MY HOLSTER YESTERDAY AND IT'S OUTSTANDING. IT'S COMFORTABLE & CONCEALS THE PISTOL GREAT. EVEN WHEN SEATED IT'S COMFORTABLE. NOW IN THE HOT & HUMID SUMMER I WON'T HAVE A PROBLEM OF WHERE TO WEAR MY PISTOL. THIS HOLSTER IS WORTH EVERY PENNY I SPENT. I'M SO GLAD I FOUND YOUR PRODUCT . GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE ALSO.
THANKS.

<snip>Message.............: Yes!! this is my second order today. The first SmartCarry was for my wife. Finally decided that mine is falling apart and needs to be replaced. I wear mine everyday either to work or running. Amazing the many places that SmartCarry has taken my Kahr PM9 in total concealment.
T. N. - West Point, MSCharlie - you are a damn genius! I just received my Smart Carry, I ordered just a little over a week ago, for a G27. I wore it out for errands and then found that I wasnt returning home between my errands and my bowling league.
I had on shorts and a tshirt, no belt. The shorts were just like nice khaki-style shorts, nothing fancy, but not workout clothes either.
I bowled 4 games, and at no time did I feel uncomfortable in the slightest, and at no time did anyone even come close to realizing that I was carrying. I almost forgot I had it on!!!
You sir - and your product - are amazing.
Thank you very much,
Sincerely yours,
M. K. - Fairfax, VAI heard it was a fine holster but it's even better than I thought it would be. Thanks for the great service and wonderful holster!
L. W. - Surgoinsville, TNHello Charlie,
I just got my smartcarry in the mail today and I must say that I am thoroughly impressed. Naturally, I was a little skeptical at first, but everything that people were boasting about the product is true. The quality of workmanship surprised me, but I would have to say that the two things I was not expecting from this product that I hadn't seen mentioned were how light it is and how thin it is. It weighs next to nothing and is paper thin. I've had mine on all day - one can truly forget that it is on.
My hat's off to you and your product. Keep up the good work!!!
You should consider making pocket holsters of the same material and quality.
C. T. - Lancaster, Pa place your order!Charles,
I received my new Smart Carry holster and, as others did, immediately put it on and wore it for the rest of the day & evening. I just wanted to drop you a line and let you know that I am another of your satisfied customers. It is, THE BEST HOLSTER I HAVE EVER OWNED.... HANDS DOWN!!
Again... Thank you!
T. P. - Santa Rosa, CACharlie, I received the SmartCarry holster today. I have to tell you, I wondered how much of the sales hype would really be true. Well, I find it to be everything you said it would be. It is comfortable and fits under my clothing as promised. It is literally undetectable! I put it on, installed my revolver (a Ruger SP101) and then challenged my son to tell me where the weapon was. Even knowing that I WAS armed, he couldn't find it. What a great product. Thanks!

Hi Charlie. I got my holster yesterday, and yes, it is an amazing design. When my better half got home from work, she could not tell I was carrying my Beretta 92FS, even with jeans on.
I will likely also purchase a small model in the future to carry my 9000S, or the Kimber Ultra Carry II .45 I plan to buy.
Thanks!
D. M. - Indianapolis, INI just wanted to write and tell you how well your holster has worked for me. I've only had my concealed license for about three months now and already ran into the problem of finding a good holster. I've invested in three holsters so far (not including the Smartcarry), and although they are good holsters I still find myself not trusting them when wearing less clothing (i.e. no jacket). The Smartcarry has worked very well because I can wear it with everything I own, and more importantly it never feels like it's slipping or moving on me. Just a great product all around, I'm glad I ran into it so early in my carrying career. Thanks again.
D. G. - Statesboro, GACharles,
Thank you very much for letting me know both that my order has been filled and shipped, and that you took note of my concern with the length of the straps. I did indeed realize the increased size of the Security holster, which is why I supplied all the measurements. I appreciate your putting in the extra seam on the straps: just in case.
I have found no better holster for carrying concealed under almost any situation than the SmartCarry, whether it be hot summertime or our current "not nearly as warm as freezing' Michigan winters and I have said so to all my CCW holding friends! Even my brother, who is very tall and can hide most any size gun on a belt holster has recently received his first SmartCarry, because despite his size, he can't cover up a gun without a suit coat or a shirt hanging out, and that just isn't always practical. On the other hand, I'm a good six inches shorter than him, and can wear any of my carry guns, large or small, with just a tank top and shorts, and it can't be seen. You make a GREAT product!!! Keep at it, and you can count on me to spread the word!
