Can anyone recommend a good 12/3 IWB that you have experience using? CZ/H&K

Hi everyone! I’m searching for two separate IWB holsters either 9 (3) or 12 o’clock positions (lefty) for a CZ Shadow 2 Compact (I am adding the extended safety, and also plan to add a holosun 407k or EPS carry), as well as an H&K HK45 Compact LEM V5, (need to convert to an ambi/V6, with no sight adjustments). I’m a bit taller and slender at 6’6 and around 180lbs. For the HK45c I’m just about decided on a Vedder lighttuck, if anyone has used one or has any insight. Vedder reached back out and said they don’t have a Cz shadow 2 compact design at this time, but I do believe they have the full size, does this give any hope they’ll release a compact version? Anyways, I look forward to hearing anyone’s thoughts on this, and appreciate the insight.

WTP to Safariland Adapter

I have a WeThePeople holster for my one gun. It's the only company that had availability in a good price point. However, I hate their OWB clip. I have a safari land QLS OWB, looking if anyone's found any adapters or workarounds to get their WTP attached to it. I found some random generic adapters on Amazon, but not trying to trial and error!

We the people holster mount

Only looking for answers with hands on experience. Has anyone tried other standard holster clips with the we the people mount? Such as a fomi clip? There price point is much better than holster gator. Holster gator has no retention or locking mechanism. It's just a 3d printed block with a slot to slide your clip in. Very vulnerable for sliding out. At that rate a tape measure mount would work better to clip your holster onto

Looking for pocket holster for very niche use case

Does anybody know of a kydex holster available for J Frame revolvers that has a thumb break retention strap? Need something that I can attach velcro to that also won't go flying if I go upside down. Thanks.

USPSA Holster for TTI Combat

Anyone have any suggestions for a holster that will fit a Canik TTI Combat and will also accept a safariland QLS fork? The gun comes with a cheap, crappy holster and you can find holsters for the TTI Combat but I haven’t found one that has the three holes to accept a QLS fork. Let me know if yall know of any! Thank you!

Need some help picking out a holster.

Hello all, I have a question regarding holsters; I have a CZ P-10F with a Vortex Defender CCW red dot sight and an O-Light Valkyrie PL-3R light on it and my old IWB holster won’t work with the light any more. I’m a big guy and need a kinda low-rise holster. I’ve seen the JX Tactical “Fat Guy Holster” which is the closest thing I’ve found to solving my problem, and I currently own “The Undercover” from North Coast Tactical. Any suggestions on where to look? I don’t want to go OWB. Thanks!

Grip protection

Holster question:

Since the grip is rough, and rightly so, on almost every gun (mine is a Taurus 3GC) - it turns out that the grip rubs my skin.

Is it just me? What do those who are smarter and more experienced than me do? Are there, for example, holsters with a "wing" to cover the grip? Other ideas?

Two questions on paddle holsters

Hello all.

I have two questions

  1. What attachment bolt pattern does We the people use for thier OWB paddle holster?

  2. Does anyone have any suggestions on an OWB paddle holster for a Shield plus with tlr6 and red dot?

Im not looking to spend a lot and dont need anything fancy. This is just to tide me over until Safariland puts out an paddle ALS for this setup.

Thanks in advance!

Does anyone know about the comparison of TLR 7X and TLR 7Xsub holster options?

If I get a holster that supports the TLR 7X would I have any issues holstering a a TLR 7 sub? I trust those from reddit to guide me in the right direction lol I believe the sub is smaller so it won't fit as deep in the holster, but as in the retention and click when holstering, is a main priority for this spefic gun. I appreciate any and all feedback 🙏

OWB competition holster for Canik TTI Combat with Feyachi weapons light

I picked up a Canik TTI Combat and want to shoot it in IDPA with a Feyachi HL20 pistol light that I picked up for $25 on Amazon. I tried the Black Scorpion IDPA holster for TTI Combat and TLR-1HL and the Feyachi light doesn't fit. Any ideas?

Need holster for use with heavy backpack (S&W Model 10, 4" bbl)

Due to the Los Angeles fires and California earthquakes, I'm preparing a bug-out plan for evacuation/SHTF/TEOTWAWKI scenarios. I will be carrying a mountaineering-style backpack with heavy waist belt and shoulder straps. So, I can't use an IWB or OWB holster, and even a shoulder holster might not work.

Can you recommend a style/fit/type/brand of holster for use with a heavy backpack? Thanks.

Warning About Craft Holsters

Craft is an add nothing, low quality reseller. A drop shipper. They just resell Falco holsters. And the falco portion is attached to a low quality (not hand made) strap in the case of the holster I bought. I bought it as a gift for my father in law. They also want a 25% restocking fee. Total scumbag company. They only have 4 actual employees with a revenue over $3M. They use cheap external customer support to attempt to refuse returns. They make nothing in house and profit. AVOID them!

Safariland UBL fitment suggestions

Just got a safariland UBL with the QLS setup for my Sig and planning to move towards this setup with my other pistols. Excited to move away from pancake style holsters while at the range. I can see myself getting a battle belt for larping and range goofing but as of right now I use a KORE 1.5” belt both on and off the range. The UBL is designed for a 2 inch belt so there’s a 1/2 of play between my belt and the UBL. I’ve seen someone suggest using zip ties on the UBL to keep it from sliding up and down on your belt but I’m wondering if the sub has any other suggestions/ideals. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Fat guy looking for a concealed holster

Gun is a Beretta PX4 Storm Type F. Y'all got any suggestions? And before you say lose weight, believe me I'm trying. I need a concealed holster that'll work for me now, not 8 months from now. Unlicensed open carry is authorized in my state, so it doesn't have to be perfect, just comfortable. I have an open carry belt holster that I use when I'm not going into crowded places like retail stores, but I don't wanna freak people out or get thrown out of places, so I don't carry the rest of the time and I feel naked for it.

Most comfortable iwb holster for a G19

I'm looking for a comfortable holster (as much as possible for ccw). I bought a WeThePeople iwb and it is not comfortable AT ALL! The color is also off of what I ordered. Kind of a trash holster for concealed carry.

I've been reading that T1C, Vedder, HiddenHybread are really good brands. Anyone have one of these?

I'm thinking that positioning would be either AIWB, 2 or 4 o'clock to avoid printing as the G19 is not small. I'm looking at the Tier 1 (T1-M) as it's a minimalist design.

What are your opinions on the most comfort?
