What holsters do people have?

Featured Replies

I have mostly safariland gear for off-duty, range and concealed use.

 

I have 3 6004 tac holsters one for my Glock 19, one extra for 19/23 and one comming for my Glock 34.

 

I use mainly my Blackhawk CQC holsters for my glocks. I also have a Galco Shoulder holster and some other assorted Safariland leather for various uses.

Depends on what gun and what they are used for. Now if you have a gun in mind and a use for it, you might get better options and opinions.

For qualifications I use a serpa, concealed galco kingtuk, or desantis scorpion, open carry desantis leather pancake with.thumb break, I wanna get a all leather iwb next

Just seeing what people use or have bought. I am a big fan of Safarilands products.

Take a look at the Remora clipless IWB holster and be amazed. I'm going to do a review on mine one day... I have it for my PX4.

I infrequently carry, but most of my holster use is for gun games and range use.

 

With that said, I like Bladetech holsters and have been buying them for pretty much all my pistols. I use them for gun games. I have a leather Galco for carrying which is nice.

 

Next up on my holster list is a Blackhawk Serpa for the M&P. I have never had a retention holster and I would like to try it as many people seem to like them. Also on the list is an IWB holster for the M&P.

I have the Blackhawk Serpa for my M&P. I recently bought it with the intention of getting into some type of competition shooting. Unfortunatley I cannot tell you much about it aside from, it works and has some sharp features.

For gun games I favor kydex from Blade-Tech with their Tek-Lok system. For CC, Milt Sparks VM II - no finer IWB holster made.

 

Adios,

Gun games, Blackhawk Serpa is what I use. Blade tech is awesome. For "holsters" for limited/limited10/open uspsa, I use the CR Speed WSM 2 model, and will soon be going to a safariland 014.

when in America for p220/229 a crossbreed supertuck IWB, serpa blackhawk, desantis cozy partner IWB

 

 

when in NJ a good pair of running sneakers

Serpa

Desantis OWB

Don Hume OWB

Crossbreed Supertuck IWB

I don't carry, so I just have holsters for the games. I used to use a Fobus holster, which wasn't bad. I recently made my own out of kydex sheets though. It's not as pretty as a professionally made holster, but it's exactly what I wanted, and a fraction of the cost.

In order of preference:

 

Raven Concealment

G-Code

Comp-Tac

Blade-Tech

 

What I'm doing will generally dictate which holster I'm using.

 

I had a Fobus that I bought for a P22 cuz I was cheap and didn't want to spend a lot of money for a .22. What a piece of garbage. Ripped the front sight off the gun on the second practice draw from the holster.

another -1 for fobus.. I had a fobus mag holder.. and it was great.. for about 2 months of hard use.. after that it stopped retaining the magazines well.. and now it is essentially shot.. never had that issue with any of my Blackhawk stuff..

Fobus seems to be hit or miss. Their mag holders have held up great for me, I have quite a few. I have bought and used 3 of their holsters...1 worked "ok", the other 2 were terrible.

 

I'd buy more mag holders from them, but no more holsters.

HK USP - Fobus(always worked wonderfully for me. Just the right amount of retention without being difficult to draw) for gaming

- Galco paddle for OC

- Don Hume IWB for CC

 

M&P45 - Fobus(haven't used it enough to decide if it works yet) for gaming

- Don Hume IWB for CC

 

BHP - Galco IWB for CC

- Don Hume OWB for OC

 

1911 - Blackhawk CQC for OC and games

- Don Hume OWB for OC

 

Sig p226 - Blackhawk Serpa for OC and games

I think if you started running or some other activity that the gun would fall right out...Maybe I am wrong...Doesnt look secure.

Bladetech for my glock(doh) and 1911 for USPSA. Although, I'm switching back to Safariland belt holster with suede lining for my 1911 to minimize wear on the finish.

Glock - Blackharwk Serpa and a Desantis cheap leather holster. Multiholster IWB should be here soon.

LC9 - Multiholster IWB

XD 40 - Crossbreed Supertuck

Blackhawk Serpa sold me 3 years ago and I think the fobus holsters are great for level 1 retention.

Desantis OWB leather for the 686, 1911 and Taurus public defender

Desantis pocket holster for LCR and NAA 32acp

Desantis ankle holste for LCR

Blackhawk drop-leg Serpa holster for 1911 (for REAL gun training)

Kydex JS Holster

Glock 17

Blackhawk Serpa for IDPA

Blade-Tech DOH with TekLok for everything else

Safariland paddle holster with suede lining. Not a big fan. Can't get that b*tch to break in for a quick draw.
