I like Blackhawk CQC cause I use the belt loop.


Not a big fan of paddle holsters:

I agree that the fobus is a weakling.

Outside - Blackhawk Serpa

IWB - Milt Sparks

My uncle was Milt Sparks, and therefore I may be a little biased, but look into them...they are pretty well revered as some of the greatest quality holsters ever.

Jeff - you just wanna be cool with all the other folks there in Arizona because they all open carry like it's nothing. LOL...

But honestly, I don't know which ones. I just use shoulder holsters.

for my XD 9 subcompact and service model, I use a blackhawk Serpa holster. Not only is it comfortable, fast on the draw, but it also has a locking system which prevents your gun from falling out!

It conceals just as well as any paddle holster etc I've had

Check out raven concealment, they're the hot ticket these days. I use a bladetech IWB for my full size 1911 most days. I also have several blackhawk serpa's. They have an easy to use retention system and are fairly solid. I can't reccomend fobus for serious self defense work.

Make sure you have a proper belt. It's as important as the holster. The one you bought at the mall is not ok.

I absolutely LOVE my Milt Sparks VM II I carry a 4" 1911 comfortably all day! The only drawback is waiting to get one or trying to buy one for an inflated price.

I have used and like both of my Blackhawk Serpa's, they come with a paddle!
Can be made belt ready with 2 screws and offer 'angle' carry adjustment as well.

I Found the Best Holster for my Glock with Crimson Trace

I just purchased the best holster for my Glock and it works perfectly with my Crimson Trace Lasergrips.

The Safariland 6378 ALS Holster. It has both the "Belt Loop" and "Paddle" options.

It also has the same system as the Blackhawk Serpa, but the release button is hidden and can be activated while wearing thick heavy gloves on those cold winter nights.

I needed a retention holster that also accommodated the Crimson Trace laser grips. I'm really glad I found this holster.

I still haven't figured out how to post pictures...but I can e-mail a picture to you.

I have the black hawk CQC serpa padle style for everyday concealment and open carry. I also just ordered the quick disconnect system and a duty belt loop for when I am working. Over all I think I have spent around $100 on everything.
