Fobus ako, concealed carry holster na pang-G23 ko is super neat and akap talaga sa body.

I wear a Uncle Mike's sidekick(available at Twin Pines) P900, for IWB, and a Blackhawk Ambi-flat belt holster (available at S.O.E), P1300.

yung bladetech na injection molded holsters available sa stronghand for 1500. owb yun. i don't know magkano paddle.

meron video sa youtube that showed how you can grab a pistol from a fobus holster. madali bumigay yung rematse.

i think mas matibay yung bladetech and uncle mike's rivets. mas madali pa mag-draw sa dalawa kesa sa fobus.

for kydex i use a fobus in between the belt and waistband holster. fits glock 17 19 26, 22 23 27. simple molded one piece construction, retention is ok, snug enough that if you hold the holster with the gun in it and turn it upside down and shake it the pistol stays in place, plus the added belt tension tightens up the grip a bit more, reholstering one handed is easy and quite safe. the only thing is, you will want at least a 1 and 3/4" belt for use with it, anything slimmer is not advisable, plus you need a belt that is a bit longer than your true waistline to accomodate the bulk, the holster is not slim by any measure but it surprisingly conceals my glock 26 well, i would think it would conceal a 19 or 17 just as well. depends really on your body type and how you carry yourself.

for leather, i am having an IWB from FIST or Tucker shipped in, for when i need to be more discreet.

i go in and out of airconditioned buildings a lot plus i am a bit on the heavy set side, so the kydex offers the gun better moisture protection. with leather, i usually have to wipe down the "sweat" that forms on the gun after a long days work.

its great that i asked here first before
buying !!!

i want a kydex type... no leather...

any other options?

Thanks !!!

you should try to look for the galco horsehide holsters. maglalaway ka sa quality ng galco!

May pinakita rin nga pala sa akin si Manny of SOE na Blackhawk na leg-holster, maganda rin for concealed carry.

Got a Blackhawk CQC serpa for my G19

For a kydex holster Comptac's ctac is one of the best around, you can't go wrong with blade-tech either. I would stay away from fobus though.

Thanks, good to be here, hope to learn and contribute as much as I can.

If you can get it, Sidearmor is excellent, especially their IWBs.

XXXyzledge · 02-06-2007, 18:00

will look into bladetech...
cheaper & more recommendations...

is it available at MCS?

There's one BladeTech IWB on consignment at S.O.E. but I think it's for a 19.

I personally used a BladeTech IWB for my G19 everyday (see the term "used" - ******ing gun ban!!!) with no complaints.

Just make sure you have the right wardrobe if you're going IWB...

XXXyzledge · 02-06-2007, 22:13

hi sir KS !!!
can i request for a pix?

thanks!

Kaiser Soze · 02-06-2007, 22:25

Sure...

charlie-xray · 02-06-2007, 22:45

Mahina ba Fobus? Made in Israel yung nakita kong naka-imprint, any bad experience?

Naka-bili ako ng isang Concealed carry holster LEFTY sa Final Option, retention is ok. I think Kydex cannot scratch my Glocks finish? Tama ba ako sa thinking ko na ito?

Kaso kung may bad experience ng available dito sa forum eh hindi pala reliable.

Salamat Pre.

KS, meron lining sa loob ba yan Bladetech holster? Yung Comp-Tac kasi wala eh.

XXXyzledge · 02-06-2007, 22:56

that was fast !!!

thanks sir Kaiser "the flash" soze !!!

zorkd · 02-08-2007, 01:18

there was a video sir bien showed me that discouraged me to get a fobus paddle, the "aggressor" in the video came from behind, grabbed the pistol twisted it down and back wards (while the guy packing it tried to retain it using down ward pressure with the elbow) and the holster broke away from the paddle. the gun still in its sheath was taken away by the aggressor. i still ended getting a fobus though, the newer one piece molded one that cups around the wearer and sits between the waistband and the belt, with the right belt and proper tension at the waist, it is practically not possible for a grabber to get your gun if you maintain downward pressure on the hand that grabs it, and if you can, turn around and kick him in the balls.

well most gun grabbers grab by writing stupid laws but that is another matter.

Kaiser Soze · 02-08-2007, 10:53

Sorry bro, but the holster doesn't have any lining inside, but I do practice draws often in my room (again, gun ban kasi) with mine and so far no scratches on my G19!

As for the fobus holster...I like their IWB's but their paddle holsters are a bit flmisy when it comes to the rivets that hold it together. I bought one, but I ended up buying a BlackHawk CQC Paddle after I saw the video.

Here's a link to the gun grab video on youtube.

charlie-xray · 02-09-2007, 23:27

as per your description, that's the same thing that I got, lefty G23 that cups around the wearer, may molded area pa for the belt. Pero any experience on scratching your Glock with repeated draws and holstering?
