As we all know, one of the first things we should do upon taking the mantle of carrying a sidearm for personal protection is "Get A Box".
Well, I need to add more things to the box.
Right now, I'm leaning towards a PHLster Classic https://www.phlsterholsters.com/shop/phlster-classic-holster/ or a Henry Flint: https://www.henryholsters.com/product/aiwb-iwb-holster/
Leaning towards the Henry as an IWB / AIWB rig due to cost, that he's a Hoosier (even though he's from New York), and that he's an INGOer. He also makes PHLster's holsters for them... so even if I go that route I'd still be supporting him.
For OWB I'm leaning towards a Raven Perun. Most definitely cost effective and robust - and not flipping huge on the waistband as their older holsters were / as Bravo Concealment's holsters are now.
But - I'm definitely open to other suggestions. And since I'll be buying 2-3 holsters, cost is also a huge concern.
Holsters like the TRex Sidecar / Tier 1 Axis & Agis are out (For now) due to cost. Some of their other options are still on the table.
I'll also need a new IWB mag carrier. Or OWB carrier. Whatever. The current Blackhawk OWB carrier I have sits too proudly for me when I carry a double stack mag (single stack for my Shield is great!)
Difficulty level: Needs to be RMR compatible (rear sight behind optic) and threaded barrel compatible. I also need to either have OEM or be compatible with Pull The Dot loops. This is for both IWB and OWB.
So - what say you?
