This is not a dig at Alien Gear, because there are plenty of other manufacturers out there that have similar designs.
I also realize that some people are not fans of this design, so be it.
Just a reminder to check the screws on these types of holsters occasionally. I learned a lesson, fortunately without consequences, this weekend.
Went to go pick up some dinner after coming back to town from the cabin and had my firearm in an Alien Gear OWB holster that has been extremely comfortable when carrying some of my larger guns.
Was walking back down the hill to the house after having picked up the grub and noticed something wasn't quite right. Felt down and realized that the holster was hanging on only be the back loop because one of the screws had worked its way out and come away from the belt. Would have been very inconvenient to dump the gun on to the floor of the restaurant.
Went back through all of my holsters when I got home today and noticed that a couple were either loose or had worked their way out.
All of that is taken care of now, and I'm going to remember to keep an eye on them.
