Default What holsters do you use?

Just wondering what types, brands, models,ect. of holsters you guys and girls are using. I personally use a Blackhawk SERPA and a Kramer belt scabbard for my Glock and a Kramer belt scabbard for my Kimber. I use a Gould & Goodrich 1.5 belt and a Blackhawk 1.25 CQC belt also. All the equpment I've been using has been great (the Glock Kramer is 11 years old).

BIG thumbs up for the Galco Ankle Glove!
I've already posted my thoughts on that product, so I'll leave it to a "search" if anyone wants more info on GOOD ankle holsters.

Right now, I'm using a Fobus paddle holster for my 2" Taurus model 85 .38 spl. I just bought a FN Herstal 9mm and I'm still looking for a holster for it. Probably going to go with a High Noon.

It's truly a great holster. It's so comfortable that I've actually forgot that I was wearing it. I've had alot of people (cops) tell me that they don;t wear a BUg because ankle holsters are heavy. Yeah, it is heavy, but after wearing it for a day, you'll hardly notice it. These are the same people that told me they didn't think Big Dots were good sights, after handling them for all of 2 minutes.

Me too...the 1st gen one-piece kind.

IWB, long stretch of time: CTAC. Comfortable, but takes some time to wrestle into place.

IWB, quick trip to store: Sidearmor 1st gen IWB....quick and easy.

Like a moth to flame, I keep coming back and trying leather/horsehide holsters, but they always rub audibly for me. As we speak, I have 2 more attempts on order....

I tried OWB, but I'm such a small guy that even a G19 in an OWB looks like I have a tumor on my side. I've tried Blade-Tech and Comp-Tacs OWB, nothing seems to work for me but IWB.


"CTAC. Comfortable, but takes some time to wrestle into place."

That's why I sold my CTAC

I LOVE my IWB Comp-Tac Gurkha because the loation of the clips go perfectly with the location of the belt loops on my Woolrich Elite pants. All I have to do it put the holster on my belt, then slide it back until it stops. It's in the same place every time.
