Just picked up a glock. 19. What holster do you use and how do you like it?

Was up at open range last week and they had some interesting iwb holsters. Versacarry. Google it. I also use the plane Jane blackhawk neoprene genaric holsters. Some people like a lot of holster though. I prefere less holster and a good belt.

I've seen those. Can't remember the name of them. They seem pretty cool.

I too prefer less holster and I have a nice 5.11 tactical belt. Might try just a neoprene uncle mikes or something.

I am a big fan of my swap rig

One holster and you just buy the kydex front for each gun. Takes 2 min to swap

Mine is the revolution

First time I saw them was at a local gun show a few years back. But they were only for glock so I never gave it a second thought......until now. I saw a few different brands on amazon. They all seemed to be the same thing though

Versa carry looks interesting. Might have to go to OR and check them out.

I like full Leather myself like a Galco. I had one of those JIT mini leathers and my gun got scuffed up pretty good.

I've tried the hybrid IWB holsters like the Crossbreed, and they don't work for me. I usually carry OWB in a Raven Concealment clone, but I like the Blade Tech Nano for IWB.

I use an old faithful that I bought as a kit from OF and assembled it myself. Saved a few bucks that way. It's the only IWB that I have any experience with but I'm happy with it.

I actually just sold an old faithful. It worked ok for me but just wasn't ideal. Trying to stay away from the hybrids. I like the look of that phlster. Very minimal. And I am planning on trying both appendix carry and my normal 4 o'clock position. But I won't appendix carry without a holster with a trigger guard. I like my junk.

I pick up used Raven Phantom holsters from the various forums I browse - that's all I use anymore. The Glock is thick enough by itself so I go with the thinnest holster I can (Kydex).

no way. It is not heavy and the clips hang over your belt and don't tear it up. Adjustable tension and you can buy extra bodies for about $35 to change out for other guns= win! You can use mine for a bit if you want to check it out seriously and see if you like or not.

Still too bulky IMO. Not thickness but overall size just seems to cause more problems than it solves.
