What Holster Are You Using?

[doddg]

I love the N8 Tactical tuckable IWB holsters.
They were recommended to me by someone from this forum (feel free to speak up!).
I was looking for a tuckable holsters with a full leather backing for the grip as well as the slide/barrel.

B/C of my inexperience, I mistakenly thought I had to have a full leather backing for the grip & not just for the slide to protect my tender sides, haha!
All that changed when I bought a SW 360 PD revolver.
It came with a Stealth Gear AIWB holster that was extremely slim in tis profile & undetectable.

First, there was the unexpected bonus that the holster was tuckable.
Then, the design with one clip being in front of the cylinder kept its profile thin.
The slim profile was enhanced by the lack of a leather backing for the grip.
Since its profile is so undetectable for the revolver, I had to consider it for my semi-auto SW MP Shield PPC.

For the SW MP Shield 9 Plus Performance Center I found a Crossbreed Appendix Carry/AIWB holster with the same design.
Stealth Gear didn't have an AIWB with only 1 clip anymore, but only came with two clips now.
The pics say it all & I'm just thrilled.

I do have a few crossbreed holsters myself. The three main ones I use are:

Crossbreed Supertuck for my Springfield XDM Compact (I would call this my summer carry) My only complaint that I have is that the screw on the jclip comes loose semi often and I have to re-tighten it for fear of losing it.

Crossbreed Mini Tuck for my Taurus 709 Slim (Only time i really wear this is when I have to dress up a bit)

Galco Miami Classic II Shoulder Rig (I wear this mostly in the winter, especially since I can carry a flashlight in one of the mag pouches)

I use Alien Gear leather, and 3.5 IWB, and 1791 leather owb holster for my 1911's and 1791 leather 2 mag pouch.

That was me... https://www.indianagunowners.com/threads/what-is-a-great-best-holster.479731/post-8327443

And I think I mentioned at the time that the backer on the grip area was... Excessive

Hey WebSnyper, thanks for speaking up!
Always have appreciated your recommendation of the N8 Tactical IWB tuckable holsters which was exactly what I was looking for at that stage of my holster search.

I won't tell you how many I have, ha ha, but you know how I can be.
I have actually let a couple go with the guns I sold b/c it was a specific fitted hybrid with the plastic shell & were too tight or loose with whatever else I had.
But, I have a bevy of "fabric" N8 Tacticals that fit different guns I've had, but I've sold most non - .22LR guns at this point.
Not only the leather backing for the grip, but the access leather below the barrel is also an issue.

Totally thrilled with the "combat" style that I stumbled on with the design of 1 clip in front of the cylinder/slide making for such an easier conceal b/c of the more than 1" less width.

I carry my HiPower OWB in a Kramer Belt Scabbard, and my CZ-75 Compact in a Clinger IWB kydex holster. I like the Clinger because it can be converted from right to left, and vice versa. That came in handy when I had to wear a wrist brace for a while.

anything leather from 1791...thank me later

1911 rides every day in the dreaded you will shoot your self holster.

 

[Tyler-The-Piker]

DW Vigil - Milt Sparks 60tk OWB
Glock 22 - Kramer Scabbard OWB
S&W Shield - Raven Concealment IWB

 

[russc2542]

I fold my own kydex anymore and I've been carrying my CZ75 P01 w/ TLR7 in one of my own creation for 2-3 years now. May not look at pretty as some others but works like a charm.

 

[bwframe]

I've settled on Bravo Concealments. I'm not opposed to looking at others, but why pay more?

Bravo's buy one get one has made the decision to have a backup weak hand rig or two pistols on the belt easy.

 

[9mmfan]

I have kept it simple. For IWB, Crossbreed, OWB Galco.

 

[USMC_0311]

IWB, DeSantis Invader Holster. Tuckable, comfortable, and a solid foundation for a draw. The first one lasted several years, on year 4 on the current one, they last forever.

Crossbreed Supertuck for my Springfield XDM Compact (I would call this my summer carry) My only complaint that I have is that the screw on the jclip comes loose semi often and I have to re-tighten it for fear of losing it.

When I first started wearing my Supertuck, within several months one of the screws back out and it and the clip fell off while I was out in public.. Luckily I was able to scoop them up and not lose them. Someone recommended Blue Loctite and they have never came loose again.

 

[BigRed]

Galco for anything not custom.

Always on the lookout for a more minimalistic approach to holsters.
Ran across the Pegasus Slim-Tuk by DeSantis (IWB tuckable)
Price was good at $30 each for two of the holsters & $24 for a third one on sale.
Shipping $9.50ish for 1 holster but only $10.55 for all 3 holsters.
In my mind to justify more holsters, it was like "buy 2 & get the 3rd free."

loving the T rex arms sidecar setup, very highly recommend. It has some mods you can do to get some different uses out of the side car itself

 

[jhartman304]

I carry the PSA dagger holster selection is very limited I went with a Nerd IWB suppressor height sights and holosun 507c works great

I found out today that Range USA (formerly Point Blank) in Greenwood had a whole line of the Pegasus DeSantis Super-Tuk holsters that I ordered 3 of last week.
I missed my chance to support my LGS.
