Hey guys,
Looking for a Taurus G3 Tier 2 Holster. Don't know too much about em. I've only used a Tier 1.
Just typing in the title a We The People Holster shows up.
Do you have any recommendations?
Thanks.
Does anyone know if the Safariland 636X holster’s ALS system activates without a light attached?
Why do people get crap about buying and using Blackhawk serpas? What’s the hate about? Is it the situational aspect of them? The finger lock? Look? In all honesty I want to use one as a holster for a hunting trip, NOT CARRYING.
Is this a thing? if so, who makes them? just recently bought a gl 43x and often wear sweatpants or basketball shorts. sometimes wear pants with belt. so im looking for a holster where i can swap the clip to whatever needed for that days outfit.
I've seen many mentions of this on tha Intarwebz, but never a tutorial.
I'm starting with a 6360RDS which fits the P320RX and SF X300u.
My pistol is a P226 Legion RXP with a Romeo1pro and shroud, Foxtrot2R light, and an AC sport take down lever.
DISCLAIMER-THIS IS WHAT WORKED FOR ME AND MY PISTOL AND HOLSTER. YOUR PISTOL AND HOLSTER MAY BE DIFFERENT. CAVEAT LECTOR.
Ok, first, get the gun in the holster and secured by the retention device. Mine only needed some rat tail filing to remove some material that was scraping against the bottom of my trigger guard.
Make sure to adjust your tension screw on the side all the way out, then tighten to best fit.
My take down lever adds maybe 3/16" thickness, which there is more than enough room for. Your mileage may vary.
That's all I had to do to get mine to click in.
Next, time for the big scary OMG I'm cutting into my $200 dollar holster moment.
You have to cut a notch in the retention strap for the hammer spur. Go get it.
I was concerned that the inside corners of the cut might tear, so I reinforced mine with a piece of thick leather cemented over it.
If you have a stock barrel, you're pretty much done. Enjoy!
I have a 5" threaded barrel, so I removed the barrel plug, used JB Weld to fill the voids in it to make it stronger and lock the parts together, and used a combo of dremmel and small files to remove material around the barrel post, giving myself maybe 1/4" extra space. Then I rat-tail filed the holes in the holster that this part goes into, allowing it to sit about a 1/4 lower than stock.
Lots of fiddle, file, and fit to get this just right.
Anyway, this process gave me a wonderful duty holster. Happy modding!
I have a Bianchi professional IWB holster, which I love. However, I am looking for a way to convert it to a tuckable system. Considering there are no mounting holes, I'm unsure if someone has a way to attach an ulticlip tuckable to it.
Does anyone know of any websites or companies that sell a left handed drop leg holster for a Taurus g2c?
Hi, does anyone know of a staccato cs holster that fits the tlr-7 sub with the tactical development pro ledge that I can use in a holster enigma. I carry when I’m with my kids and a lot of times I’m not in jeans with a proper belt and just need a better solution. I really like the pro ledge so I’d prefer to find a solution. Thank you.
Just wanted to get some thoughts and opinions on shoulder holsters…
I don’t have one and not exactly planning to get one.. but just curious what you all think about them.
Practicality, safety, etc
Anybody run the P365 in Vedder owb? Thoughts on Kydex vs their carbon fiber version? Stability. Perhaps in a rather rotund application😉👍✌️
Just a question. Would most of you prefer an owb kydex or owb leather with thumbreak?
I have a Taurus 1911 AR which is A 5' with the rail and it's absolutely amazing how hard it is to find a holster for this gun that actually seems like it's suppose to fit/made for it I was searching for something IWB but full sized 1911 in the waste band can't be great just want something that is concealed but still owb
I’m looking at getting a new holster for my hellcat pro with a tlr7x on it these are the two companies I’ve been considering anyone have any experience with them. Or other recommendations
Hi. I'm disabled and carrying on my hip really isn't an option most of the time anymore. I primarily use a rollator now, which has drastically improved my mobility. But it also makes trying to hip draw discretely more difficult, as my hands are usually on the rollator and not at my sides, so the movement would be much more noticeable.
We're also expecting our first child, and I was wondering if anyone knows of any holsters for strollers? (Obviously out of reach of the child.)
I will likely end up needing to use a wheelchair for several months around the beginning of 2025, and I have only been able to find two wheelchair holsters and neither seem like they would be very usable for my particular pistol. They seem to mostly be for compacts, and I carry a Springfield XD-M Elite 4.5” 9mm.
I've been looking for several hours and most of what I find (even when just specifying rollators or wheelchairs) are searches related to people asking what holster Walker Texas Ranger used.
Any and all help/recommendations would be greatly appreciated.
