    Actually...you’re not wrong but I do shoot right handed predominately. It’s there cause it’s out of sight and out of mind. Easy access too. I don’t want an empty holster or mount sitting in clear view so it screams “I have a gun” and someone trying to look for it without permission

    agreed. left hand is not my strong hand but out of sight is definitely better.

    I keep mine at AIWB driving, transferring the firearm once parked would cause some alarm id think.

    well so much for the 2 week lead time from Prinsu/CBI. Got my sales receipt today with end of the month date for estimated shipping.

    Let it begin.

    Getting the rtt on and off of the prinsu was a bitch
    I hated trying to take the rtt off and on of the prinsu. Was a huge pain.

    I’m going to mount it to the bars then lift on to the Prinsu. Hoping that will be easier.

    I did that on my Tacoma but it still got annoying.

    I highly recommend buying frontrunners RTT mounts and modifying them to work on a Prinsu. Just buy a couple bolts. Makes mounting and taking off a breeze.

    You could probably make your own and save the cash if you have a little ingenuity.

    this one?

    https://www.frontrunneroutfitters.com/en/us/front-runner-tent-mount-kit.html

    thats actually a super convenient looking set up. Would be easy to mount to Prinsu bars too.

    you're stating opinion, not facts. Enjoy your ground tent. I did for 15 years.

    you not thinking my tent is practical doesnt do shit for me. Constantly shitting on them makes you look like a jealous ass.

    I smacked my alumninum skid pretty good when I almost flipped with you that one time. It held up pretty well

    how much you thinking? I may want in on that action.

    These were on a T4R that went through the rubicon and done far more extreme shit than i ever will. They're dinged up but thats fine by me. its better than the stock shit.

    how heavy is it? shipping probably would kill the deal.

    i honestly have no idea how my stock one is still able to be mounted. Took it off to check my inner TREs and the impact helped me persuade it back on.
