Holsters?

[buckshot]

Who is using what for a holster?

I can't seem to get to liking an IWB CCW holster.

For OWB CCW I am kind of stuck on Uncle Mikes' LE Open Top Kydex Holster with the paddle installed. Use them for M1911, Ruger KP-90, S&W J-frame and Glock 17.

Have a Fobus for the Kel-tec P-11 (no Uncle Mikes' for that handgun) but it is a cheap and trashy holster. They seem to make two or three grades, and this is the cheapest of them.

Have not found a good one yet for my S&W M65, closest I have come is my only IWB that I use with any regularity, an old Bianchi 3P Pistol Pocket (older than the current 3S Swivel Pistol Pocket, the 3P has no swivel, fixed belt loops with directional snaps instead), can't find a Kydex except for the elusive Fobus, which I would want to examine before purchase.

For LBE the Bianchi M-9/UM-84 series except for the GI Leather flap holsters for the M1911 and the S&W K-frame 4".

Holster shops are legion--but this fellow has a good reputation, will build it your way, and has some really neat Saps.

I have two different methods of carriage. For potential serious social difficulties, in cities, I wear a dual, parallel, shoulder rig by DeSantis- the New York Undercover. Magazines are in two pouches, each side, on my belt. That gives me six 20rd magazines, and 2rds in the spout. Very comfortable, for carriage of two Sig Sauer P226 TACOPS.

When out in the country, two Alien Gear OWB holsters, with the obligatory two magazine pouches on each side.

Better to have, and not need, than need, and not have...

For CCW, my 1911s ride in a Galco Avenger. Field use is a Blackhawk Serpa thigh rig. I also have a repo M3 that gets occasional use when 'woods walking'.
