Who carries a Glock 26 as their CCW?

[45fan]

I had a G 26 for nearly a year. It was a great gun, just not for me. It has since been replaced with a Hi-Power. Slightly bigger, conceals just as easy, more rounds in the mag, and not noticeably heavier to carry. Better trigger, and I shoot MUCH better with it. If you can learn to get along with the 26, it is a great gun for CC. Just dont be that guy who pocket caries one, especially without a holster...

I carry my G27 IWB with a Foxx Leather Hybrid Holster. Once it's broken in it feels great and conceals well.

Would never, plus my pockets are way too small. Couldn't even carry a kahr cm9 in my pocket lol.

26 in a 5.11 IWB. Glock 19 mag w/adapter. Ghost Rocket trigger. Shoots like a dream! Carries like one too.

I have a 17, a 19 and a 26. I prefer OWB carry, although I will carry IWB if I really really need to hide a gun. If I'm going to IWB, I've been known to switch to the CW9 because it's just that much slimmer.

I recently bought the 26, because I can carry it "higher" on the belt, which makes it easier to keep it covered when bending or moving in awkward angles, which happens on a regular basis.

My Glock 26 with the new Ghost +3 plate. I carry it in a Desantis Intruder IWB, with another 13 round mag OWB is set up like the one in the pic. Great little gun, accurate as all get out. I highly recommend it.

Those Ghost plates are interesting. Do they come with a spring? Do they lock on the magazine tight?

New Spring, 2 piece base, and take down tool. Ebay typically has them for $20. Links are for company website.

How much shorter is that grip profile than a G19?

 

[tcecil88]

Laying it on top of my empty G23, the loaded G26 is about 1/8-1/4 inch shorter.

I have these old style Glock (+) bottoms on two of my G-26 mags. Both have been on there about 15 years now, use them at the range each year, reload them and keep them in my cars console year round, AND they do not cost alot.

Both my factory Glock-26 gen 3 mags that are wearing them hold thirteen, (13) rounds easily.

Sounds like you had to try a few things before you got it right. Clipdraw? The gun doesn't move around though? I mean it has one clip holding it to your belt/pants? Have you ever tried a crossbreed/aliengear style holster?

Sorry I didn't see this sooner. I tried a crossbreed type holster on, but I found it to be difficult to don and doff. To be fair I was trying it on in a LGS so I didn't really give it a chance. As to having to try a few things, that is an understatement for me. I have come to think of carry holsters as something of a holy grail; I am constantly looking for better, more comfortable options. The 64 gallon plastic tub of woebegone holsters can attest to that!

FWIW, I also found the Crossbreed type holsters to be impossible. I had to literally almost put the holster on my pants before putting the pants on my body. Plus, I think they're too much holster for a little gun like a G26 or CM9. When the holster is bigger and heavier than the gun, something is off.

I CCW a 26 in an Alien Gear IWB. Like some others have mentioned, the 19 isn't much bigger, but it does print a bit more. FWIW, the 19 seems easier to shoot accurately.

thanks.

G26

I carry a G26 in a cross breed super tuck everyday. Very comfortable and easily concealable. Bone stock, no extensions, etc. I have also tried my G19, but it isn't as comfortable and prints more during the summer months as clothing is not as bulky

 

[nater30/30]

Right hip pocket, usually makes it in the pants before the wallet.

 

[OIIIIIO]

A 26 is a good concealable carry piece and I can shoot it almost as we'll as a G19

I carry a Glock 26 in a crossbreed supertuck everyday. It conceals very well and is a great gun. Mine has the crimson trace laserguard. I am pretty thin and dont have any problems with concealing, you just have to dress to conceal.
