Hi to everyone, I need a holster for my new babe... I know the subcompact is new but if someone knows a holster for a usp or another model to fit my new weapons... let me knows.

:cool:I don,t know what kind of holster you want, Open carry, CCW, IWB, ect. I do know that GALCO Has a full line of holsters out for the P2000sk as well as for the P2000us. If you want the Summer Comfort IWB They make only one for the P2000us, they say it is supposed to fit both Pistols. Also, the Summer Comfort for the H&K USPc 40 cal or 9mm is supposed to fit it also, The SK That is. Myself, I like Horse Leather IWB style holsters. I personally like, Kramer Handgun Leather. They don't make them yet for the P2000sk, but they do make them for the P2000us. I have the 40cal P2000sk and a 40cal USPc. Yes, you guessed it. My Kramer #3 IWB for the 40USPc fits the P2000sk, so that is what I'm using for now. When they do come out with one for the P2000sk I may get it, but why, when I have one that fits two guns! Have fun & stay safe!! P.S. Ride the Horse, go Kramer!;f
I have the same dillema, so I solved it by having a variety of holsters. I carry a USP .40 usually on a belt holster with my shirt over the top to conceal it. Additionally, I also carry my P2SK in my cowboy boot holster as a back-up. I went to my local shoe repair man and he modified my boot with a sewn on pocket type holster with a leather strap and brass snap for $12.50. I tried it I liked it and took two seperate pairs of boots to equip like this. I also carry my P2SK in a Kramer T-shirt (about $43) which is good when you wear shirts that require tucking in, escecially when you have to wear a suit, you do not have to worry about taking off your coat and someone seeing the gun. I am still waiting for Renegade to make the ankle holster for the P2SK; as of last week, that still has not happened. I guess it is a matter of personal preference and how you routinely dress dependant on your environment. This is what works for me in the HOT southwest. People do not even notice if I am packing or not, and that's the way I like it. Good Luck!

Get a fist # 8 http://www.fist-inc.com/holsters/holster/8.htm
+1 on the Fist. I have a #8 for my baby Glocks and really like it. I also know that Fist has the cast for the P2000SK, cause I called em and asked em and they said they have it.
K & D Holsters makes custom ones for the P2000sk. I have one on order from him. He does excellent work. Custom holsters for off the rack prices!

Josh Bulman made an sk holster for me. Bulmangunleather.com. Supreme quality.

I just ordered the Galco NSA II IWB from Lightning Arms for my P2000SK 9mm. It came today but I wasn't here to get it. I'll pick it up this week from the Post Office and provide a review. FYI - Lightning Arms provides great service! I got my shipment in 2 days instead of waiting like 2 months for Galco to make the holster. I also ordered the Galco SB3 belt. On the Galco website, the holster is $66 and the belt is $70. I got them for $54 and $56, respectively from Lightning Arms.
I just had a reminder of why choosing the proper holster is so important. This weekend I was at an ATM machine at night in San Antonio, TX. I am aware of the dangers, however; I needed the money and proceeded to get money ever being so cognizant of the dangers that lurk around. It was the type of ATM that you have to get off your vehicle, my family stayed locked inside the car. After making sure the coast was clear and not a person in sight within 500 yards in any direction within a line of sight I began my tranaction and continuously looking in every direction. As soon as the money came out I walked a few steps to my wife's side of the vehicle and gave her the cash and I went back to wait for my receipt. As I got the receipt I walked around the back of the vehicle and making my way back to the front passenger side. About 10' prior to entering the vehicle, I heard a sound behind me approaching very quickly. I reacted very fast and placed my left hand in a pointing position and my right hand as if reaching for my gun on my waist as usually worn. I very quickly realized that I did not have it and only had my back up in my boot (P2000SK/.40 S&W). Knowing I could not get to it on time I bluffed my way as if I had a gun at my waist. The man on a bicycle stopped abrumtly and told me he was lost and needed for directions, YEAH right. In a very polite way I told him to leave. Morale of the story: WEAR A HOLSTER THAT YOU CAN GET TO FAST IN AN EMERGENCY. Normally I carry a gun on my waist (USP 40) and the one in my boot, except for this time, just when you need it most. I guess YOUR BACK UP SHOULD REMAIN YOUR BACK UP.

I also picked up a Galco NSAII for my P2000SK, and it turns out it is designed to accomodate the USPc and P2000 as well. Hence, it is longer than it needs to be, but it still works well. Has the molding for the ambidextrous slide catch. I think all of the Galco holsters for the P2000SK might be made this way. I have since ordered a Bulman belt holster, made specifically for the P2000SK. Its been a while since I ordered, and will probably be a while before I get it, but I'm sure it will be worth the wait.

Thanks for the reminder. We too easily forget the dangers around us. I tend to grab the easiest or most comfy holster instead of what whould be the best to wear. Great advice.

I found the NSAII for the P2000SK (USPc) to be way too tight to be able to unholster the gun one handed. Because the gun sits at the front of the holster and the belt pulls the gun in to the body, and the holster doesn't have a re-inforced steel opening it's very difficult to pull the gun out. I'm thinking about getting the TSA from Josh Bulman.

The Summer Comfort from Galco seems to be ok for the p2000sk (model number 400). I wore it for a while and it was comfortable. FRT007, if you're out there, which Bulman did you get?
Full Belt Slide I like a pancake type rig.
