In honor of getting my UT permit today, I want to get a IWB holster for my G17.  I'm going to get a dedicated CCW gun in a few months but for now, I decided on this one.

 

So what do you guys recommend as far as holsters go?

 

How is this one: http://www.amazon.com/DeSantis-Stealth-Large-Frame-Black/dp/B0020HL1OK/ref=sr_1_21?ie=UTF8&qid=1378087588&sr=8-21&keywords=glock+17+iwb+holster

What you have is a link to a OWB oaddke holster. Its not IWB

 

 

Try these...........after many holsters........the only advice i can give you is not to go cheapo on a holster.

I fixed the link. I was looking at a different one and posted the wrong link.

I can't speak for a glock model but I had that holster when I had the Beretta Nano and I will say it was better than any of the Uncle Mike's. I had no complaints, Good material, incredibly strong belt clip. I'd say for the price to give it a try. 

CrossBreed Super Tuck.

I got the horse hide natural since I sweat a lot. I recommend getting a gun belt, which is sturdier than a regular belt.

Get the IWB/OWB soft loops and you are set.  I bought one a couple months ago since I needed a Kydex which accepted my M&P9 with a light.  I got it in less than two weeks, with the custom mold for a TLR-4 weapon light, and it is of the same quality as Raven concealment.  For comparison Raven has a 16 week lead time and would cost over $80.

 

 

I just used mine as an IWB for the first time this weekend in PA and it worked great.

First order of business, especially for IWB carry, is to get a gunbelt, operative word being gun. Personally, I like the Ares Gear Ranger Belt. It is the BEST belt I have used to carry CCW and I have tried a lot of belts looking for the "one". It is very stiff which helps distribute the weight of the gun and OWB extra mag(s) I carry, but remains comfortable when I come home and take the holster off. CompTac also makes a nice gunbelt if you need to spend more time dressed up, it is all leather with a plastic layer inside. It is comfortable and works well.

 

I have a Box-O-Holsters over the bookcase by my front door that has all the holsters I use regularly. I have two dresser draws full of holsters in my gear room for the ones I tried and rarely or never use. I find myself reaching for the same two IWB holsters for my Glocks (G27, G23, G22, G35) everytime I go out the door. My typical first choice is a DeSantis Scorpion Holster that I wear at the 4:30 position. It is sturdy, has a nice solid click in/click out with good retention, holds the gun close to my body, and is fairly comfortable. I have the model for a G27, and use it for all of my Glocks. I found that model designed for the G23 and G22 pinched a little and offered no extra retention, security, or comfort. I have had my Scorpion holster for 6 or 7 years now and wear it almost daily. The only issue I had was the belt clips broke after about 3 years (It was my fault, I snapped them being lazy while taking the holster off.) It was a $4 part and took 10 minuted to fix once they arrived. Now I keep an extra set handy in case I snap another one.

 

I also really like the CompTac Minotaur holster, it is a hybrid Leather/Kydex like the crossbreed and is secure and comfortable. I feel lilke it does not conceal as well as the DeSantis Scorpion. I also use the CompTac Mag carriers.
