Interior pockets poorly stitched - Rothco Concealed Carry 3 Season Jacket

The external pockets are very sturdy but less ergonomic than the internal pockets. When I practice drew from an internal pocket, the fabric tore where the pocket was (poorly) stitched to the jacket (bottom of the pocket). Also, the interior pockets are not fully stitched from top to bottom; they are partly attached to the jacket with velcro at the top of the pocket. I think they should be sewn from top to bottom all the way. Compact pistols are OK to tote in the interior pockets. I would not trust the interior pockets to properly retain something around the size of a gov't standard size 1911; the velcro is just not secure. The jacket is well made but not as secure as I would like it to be. No complaints about the mag pouches. Rothco, please remove the velcro from the interior pockets and sew them up. And consider maybe adding buttoned retaining straps to the interior pockets?
