Alien Gear 2.0

[hornady]

I bought a new summer carry gun, I wanted something smaller than my full size Glock or S&W. I have the Crossbreed for the Glock, and an alien gear for the S&W, both have the leather backing. I was thinking of the Alien Gear Cloak tuck 2.0 with the neoprene backing for the new gun. I like both of the above holster but felt the neoprene would be a better option for summer carry, Any thoughts on the AG 2.0 holster.
Thanks

It's a very comfortable holster. A lot more comfortable than any leather crossbreed style holster I ever tried. Also the neoprene will protect your gun from sweat. I highly recommend the tuck 2.0 to anybody who wants a crossbreed style holster.

Thanks I was a little concerned about gun retention with the neoprene backing, On Alien Gears site there are reviews for the leather backing, but no one has rated the neoprene so far.

I have absolutely no problem with recommending the Cloak... very comfortable even in hot weather, never had a problem with retention.

One thing to consider, if you are really fat re-holstering may be an issue since the flexible construction will tend to "bend over" slightly... It's a minor inconvenience for me but at least you should be aware...

It doesn't change my recommendation

I returned mine-thought it was a total piece of s***.
Can't reholster safely one handed. Its cheap and you get what you pay for.

To each his own though..

What issue did you have with reholstering?

Just looking at them they seem to be made poorly and are a cheap way to go about things.

Alright, THIS OTHER THREAD http://forum.pafoa.org/showthread.php?t=283305 has a ton of people who love them while THIS THREAD hates them.

Who is right?

Buying a holster is like buying a pair of shoes. You have to try it out to be sure, but often that's not an option without buying. That's why so many have a drawer full of holsters. I wasn't real thrilled with either AlienGear, version 1 or 2, though I thought the 2 was better. I kept it though, for when I do need to tuck. Alien Gear does have a 30 day return policy though.

Not tuckable, but I'm currently using a standard Remora. I like that you can position it anywhere in any position as you're not limited to any clips. I believe they make a tuckable version also.

AG now has the Cloak 3... has some type of spring steel inner, I assume to increase stiffness while the outer part remains soft
