I've been close enough with some level headed LEOs to hear how they distinguish between honest citizens carrying and criminals. Criminals nearly never have real holsters and higher end firearms. Honest citizens nearly always have decent grade firearms and holsters (and firearm never leaves the holster.)
Even the LEOs who gave family members a hard time usually compliment our choice of arms (Kimber 1911s and Sig P229s/P239s) and holsters.
