RE: holster


Well, I have to admit that for my first concealed carry holster it was just fine. However, after using it for a(few) day(s) I found some things that I didn't like.

(1): The rough leather innerside of the holster. It would rub up against my gun to much and made some of the bluing on the slide come off(the frame is polymer).

(2): The thumb-break. In this holster it is adjustable(up and down) to fit a particular gun, therefore the gun covers part of the thumb break, making it difficult to reholster and latch it without looking.

(3): The open-bottom design. If you don't draw the gun pulling out and forward at the same time, the front site can snag on the holster.

(4): Concealability. It is far from what I would call 'bulky', but it doesn't ride up as high as I want. Most of the pistol is below your belt line.

Conclusion: Its a pretty good holster, as far as holsters go. It is thin, fairly easy to draw, and because most of the gun is below you belt, doesn't require a gun belt, though it would probably help. So, if your going to get it, great. however there are some better quality holsters out there, such as the Secret Agent Belt Slide Holster. Just keep that in mind.
