    Have any safety holsters like the Blackhawk Serpa holsters, or Safariland? I like the Blackhawk holster, but they only offer a mold to work with their flashlight, while Safariland makes a mold to also fit the TLR-1.

    I’m not a fan of any extra retention devices other than just good fitting kydex. I have holsters from a lot of manufacturers but I’m currently loving Stealthgear. I rairly use an OWB so it’s skews my view a bit. I do run a stealthgear for training classes though.

    I’m a stock Glock guy too. My trusty G17:
    BB6695FF-AA01-4A77-B752-CBBD3BAEAA3D.jpg

    It has Glock night sights and a grip plug, the rest is stock.

    Edit: Just noticed all the dust and lint in the trigger guard. I should probably clean it.

    A few, not as many as I would like. For carry guns I have a Shield 9 and a 642 revolver. I mostly edc the Glock, but I like having some smaller options for the days I am feeling lazy.

    Glock 17 is too long, and looks odd. The 19 is just perfect for my skinny hand, and looks very nice when it's stock.

    What kind of CZ guns are those? I'm been wanting to familiarize myself with those cool guns lol.

    I had a 19 that I carried for a couple years. Then I got a screaming deal on this 17 that i couldn’t pass up, so I started carrying it instead. I realized that the 17 was just as easy for me to conceal, I shoot it more accurately, and it holds 2 more rounds.

    So I sold the 19 to a buddy and never looked back.

    I don't bother with my 19 anymore, either. I built it up for IDPA CCP division, if I ever get back into competing.

    Not bad. I just don't like the 17... too long.

    I switch between my Berettas and my Springfield 1911 for carry. Most of the time I carry the 1911 because it's lighter, slimmer and I'm just as fast/accurate with it.

    I've always carried full-size guns. Only experimented with compacts and subcompacts. I normally carry using Bladetech or custom kydex iwb at the 3 o'clock. My belt was an Aries Gear Ranger Belt. I've been carrying the same guns and using the same setup until about 15 pounds ago. I now use a cheap Wal-Mart leather belt while I work on losing weight again. My height is 5' 10" and weight varied between 190 and 260
