What kind of holster do you use?

I got lucky with my 1st and only holster purchase for my Glock 19. IWB (obviously,do they make an OWB?) appendix carry. It's a Blackstorm Defense. Paid $50 for it from a local gun shop. Didn't think of like carrying appendix but, it's grown on me and makes more sense(to me) to have my weapon in the front where all the action is usually going to happen. Plus, it hides waay better on me appendix vs above my buttcheek.

 

I have Aliengear IWB for both my Shield 9mm and my G17 (swappable shells only). Then I have a Concealment express IWB for my Shield that I really really like and a Bravo concealment DOS torsion for my G17 that I really, really like also.

I am waiting for Bravo Concealment to make a DOS torsion for the Shield.

 

Quick review on my preferred carry holster.

That’s a really neat holster. Would be good for when I’m out on the 4 wheeler

 

I’ve probably spent almost as much on holsters as I have a couple of my guns..... That said; I carry my Beretta Nano the most and it’s pretty close in size to the sheild.

I’ve got a couple kydex IWB holsters that I’ll use for “deep concealment” if I’m wearing a snug T-shirt, but generally tend to gravitate towards OWB for comfort.


My favorite is a Wright Leather Works OWB, which is comfortable and conceals well when paired with a good gun belt. The pancake style pulls the gun in tight enough that an untucked polo is probably enough to conceal, but I hate untucked shirts and usually just wear a fleece in the winter.

I CC, and use the Blackhawk CQC holster for my M&P Shield. I use the brand for my Springfield 45. Nice positive lock on the trigger guard with a release lever. It is outside the belt.

 

Milton Sparks out of Idaho....custom built for your gun!! Very good quality

 

I really like my crossbreed with a good belt..don’t like my alien gear near as much. Believe alien gear came out with something new this year though. I do have an alien gear mount in the truck that fits a paddle holster which I like..

 

Stealth Gear makes a really nice IWB holster for CC and OWB for competition. I've also used Vedder which is less expensive but still serviceable.
