    I highly recommend the new Bravo concealment DOS torsion. Their newest release I scooped from a member in the classifieds here. It's outstanding how closely it rides against your body due to the newly redesigned position of the belt clips. A++
    Just a FYI it works best if you have the glock factory upgraded slide stop release. It's molded for it.

    Great if you are right handed in a G19 platform.

    Why they don't offer other models besides Glock and right handed is beyond me.

    They use to make all types of holsters for several models. Not sure why they stopped.

    I carry my glock 23 in a g code incog shadow eclipse with surefire xc1 light. You will spend probably more money on holster than you did the gun. I have tried several holsters before I finally found one that I can honestly say I love. What works for me may not work for you. Go off what everyone recommends and narrow it down to a few, then pull the trigger and buy it. Don't go crazy researching everything.

    Also, where do you prefer to carry. I carry appendix and it is my preferred carry position unless I'm wearing an OWB.

    The Alien Gear Cloak Tuck 3.0 that both me and my wife order arrives today. From what I've read and researched prior to ordering I think I'll be satisfied.

    I touched one today at Tyler's... then ordered one for my LC9...

    I'm a big fan of this style of IWB after trying many styles. Position anywhere from Appendix to 3 or 4 o'clock. Easy on and off. Trigger always covered. Adjust on body as needed since I can slide on my belt (in and out of car)

    The ones pictured below are Vigitac obtained at Trop in PA but there are many companies that make similar. Only thing to make it better might be a cant adjustment but these do the trick for me.

    I went with the molded Kydex Holster for my Glock 43. I love how it clicks into place and you can adjust the tension. Very comfortable in the kidney carry position.

    I have an alien gear and I absolutely hate it- it stays in my holster box- in fact if anyone here wants an alien gear for an LC9s, let me know and it's yours.

    I have a Stealthgear Ventcore for AIWB, which is THE most comfortable AIWB holster I've found so far- so much so that it completely changed my normal carry location to appendix. When used in single-clip mode, it easily rotates up a bit when seated, and then adjusts down again when standing so that you're always comfortable and never printing.

    My previous go-to was a Black Arch (formerly SHTF) ACE-1 Gen 2 rig I wore at 4:30- also super comforable, but with appendix carry I no longer fret about printing or displaying when seated or bending over, something that was always on my mind when carrying at 4:30 (I am a t-shirt/jeans guy, and don't like to wear cover garments).

    I'm looking to upgrade my current CCW holster. I currently have a standard inside the waistband leather holster. I'm looking for something a little more comfortable and something easier to draw from. Any recommendations?

    What do you mean by "standard"?

    Enough with all the gimmicks out there, alien, crossbreed, etc...

    Bianchi(Safariland) model #6 You can pull the whole holster out and set it somewhere, put in a bag, car console, etc...if needed. Especially driving.

    You can slide it to any position. Appendix, you name it.Try that with those double belt loop types.
    You can use different pistols in one. I have used one for probably 20 years, between a Sig 229, 239 and Glocks.

    I glued a small piece of leather at the top to make it a sweat/pinch guard.
    Minimal amount of material inside the pants is key. Not some big swath of thick leather with all kinds of hardware attached to it.

    $25 bucks

    I am going to try the "Condom holster" SOBTACTICAL.

    How much do you want for it? If you don't want any money please let me give you some ammo or something.



    I'll consider it Karma for the tidbits I pick up from you and this forum but if you are inclined to pass something back that's cool too. I'll PM.
