Where would that be gents?
Don't buy Don Hume. It's better than something from Uncle Mikes, Fobus, or a nylon gunshow holster...
But there's better stuff out there for not much more money. Comp-Tac, Tucker, High Noon, etc, etc...

I have not heard much about them other than good things. I recently had a Kramer Holster that cost me much more, but I was not very impressed. Looks nice, but the comfort and fit just were not there.

Cheapest place I have found, especially with there cheap shipping rate.

Why us Don Hume not considered a good holster? Just curious.
Hmmmm, beats me. I've been using their holsters (duty and off duty stuff) for years, and have a bunch of 'em. Never had a problem. Great quality, durable and a very good value. IMHO, they are the best mass produced holsters available today. They're just a notch or two below custom made holsters (which are in a whole different league). With that said, I believe Sparks is the king of IWB holsters (have a few of them also).

GunnersAlley has some pretty good prices on Hume gear.

As I posted above, I had a Kramer holster but did not see a difference having owned Galco before. If they are as you say "a whole different league", I must be missing something.

Well then, nevermind. The ONE Hume holster I had was a belt-slide for a Glock, and was the saggiest holster I've ever worn. I did buy it used, so it might just have been a bad one.
Sound like I stand corrected. :)

The correct answer is: eBay or Glocktalk.....

I had a Don Hume JIT Slide for a while, to get me by until I was able to get something better. It didn't conceal as well as my Tucker HF1, but it worked a lot better than an Uncle Mike's or a Fobus. I consider Don Hume a good value.
I got mine at gunnersalley.com, though gcloyd's link to Red Diamond proves to have better pricing.
Don Hume makes an excellent product, I have purchased a lot from them over the years, and have yet to run accross a lesser than high quality product.

I have a few Don Hume holsters, and carry my G34 in one all the time. It is one of the most comfortable holsters I own. And to be carrying the G34, it holds it PERFECTLY to my body. Can't even see that I am wearing it when covered with a t-shirt. Great stuff!

I have windows open even now for both gunnersalley.com and reddiamondonline.com. For the items I'm looking at: H721 belt holster and B109L lined trouser belt red diamond seems $5 and $10 cheaper, respectively. Can't tell you about shipping charges yet.

That's just some people's opinions, which they are -of course- entitled to, no matter how erroneous they may be.
Hume makes excellent holsters, especially if you're on a budget. Are there better out there? Sure. But you'll generally pay a lot more for them to get the same results.
Check out Don Hume, Inc. ((link)) (http://www.donhume.com/). You'll be glad you did.
I'm not the owner or an employee, just a well-satisfied customer whose owned several of their products and been happy with each one.

I have 2 Don Hume holsters. I'm wearing the 715 IWB now. They're great holsters, and well made! Pair it up with a Beltman belt then it gets better!

www.gunnersalley.com is a bit cheaper than most.

I strongly disagree. I've been using a 721 OT for 6 years now with my G36 and it's the most comfortable holster I have. Absolutely no problems with it. Probably the best $35 I ever spent. (A friend at a gun show gave me a discount on it.) If I ever wear it out, I'll not hesitate to get another.

I've got a Don Hume Pocket Holster for a Smith & Wesson J-Frame for sale.

I own several models of Don Hume. Don Hume makes a GREAT product for a reasonable price and most of the time I'm carrying it's in a Hume or a Bianchi #100.
FYI, I do have a MTAC on the way. :supergrin:
