Venandi Chest Holster question

[gostovp]

I'm looking at the Venandi bino pack mounted holster for my new XDM Elite 10mm...
For those that use this holster, any issues with having a rangefinder or accessory pouch mounted on your bino harness interfering with the pistol grip or getting in the way of the draw?

Exactly what I run & same handgun. I use it on a marsupial harness with no issues whatsoever. You can adjust it by removing a couple screws and sliding it a notch or two further down in the bino harness if you feel the need. I could see where it would probably be in the way if it was all the way out.

You have a rangefinder pouch mounted on the Marsupial?

Yes, I do not use an accessory pouch, however.

Your range finder mounted on the right side of your harness? I think the marsupial and my AGC Hybrid Max are very similar in size

I put it on the right side when I'm bow hunting and the left side when I'm rifle hunting.

Depending on how deep you mount the pistol in the holster, it may slightly interfere with removing the rangefinder from the pouch on the right side of your body. I've never noticed any issue on getting a good clean grip/draw on the pistol with the rangefinder pouch on the right, however.

Thanks. That makes sense.

Got my Venandi holster. Build time and shipping was fast. I'm really impressed with it so far. I have it on my AGC Hybrid Max with the rangefinder pouch mounted on the right side of the bino harness. I actually like this setup because the pouch soft of guides my draw hand into the pistol grip and I'm able to get good hand placement and draw on the pistol without looking.

I 100% recommend this holster to anything thinking about this style.

Anyone have any issues with the pistol being uncomfortable against your chest? Seems like it may be in warmer weather/lighter clothing

FWIW, I tried the chest rig many years ago and didn't like it. Too much on my chest, gets hot, not a clean draw.

I put mine on my pack belt, instinctive and fast, effortless, I don't even know its there

This is kind of the way I am leaning..
