Fail. 1)Sticking something down the barrel is crazy. 2) No trigger guard/protection. 3) Now you have a nice little string to snag your weapon on. You'd be safer and just about as secure just sticking it in your pants.

I learned long ago you can't reason someone out of something they don't reason themselves into.

That is an awful lot of blind manipulation of firearm and like NP stated just stick it in your pants.
That said, I have a couple of holsters that I might consider using something like this with when I am in rough country crawling about in the brambles. Couple of places I carry military style full flap holsters and they still get snagged and opened. Not sure on the barrel plug, maybe a little kydex cap to fit over the pistol or just attach a bungee strap to the parent holster. Regardless you end up back in the dilemma of securing the weapon vs speed of access.

The name is wrong.
He should have named it "The pistol tampon".

Looks like a variation on the old gangster style of using a coat hanger bent into an "S" hook. Come to think of it, I like the coat hanger better.

I'm not sure how confident I'd be that I could grab a small strap and un-hook it off my grip behind my back before unholstering in a life or death situation. It's a good idea, with some limitations that are probably deal-breakers for me.

Have you ever seen what happens when Bugs Bunny puts his finger in the barrel of Elmer Fudd's gun? I would imagine that could happen real easy with this rig
