I use my DeSantis Nemesis or my Fobus paddle (LH) depending on my clothes. My Bear Creek Horsehide & Alligator for Sunday go to meeting.

I think I've FINALLY found the right holster for me!!!

I started with a Fobus paddle ordered from Ruger. It works but was really only concealable under a heavy sweatshirt or jacket and I didn't feel like it was completely secure on my belt.

Next was a Pocket Holster from www.thepocketholster.com. This is still my best option with a tucked in shirt. I changed the anti-print flap to a heavier piece of leather to reduce printing. Some jeans pockets are still a little shallow to feel completely concealed and it is not super comfortable when seated.

Then I purchased a Desanti Summer Heat IWB. This is a very nice holster for the money. It seems to be best for appendix carry (1:00 or 2:00) which is not the most comfortable position for me. It works for behind the hip (4:00 or 5:00) but the metal clip can tear a hole in your shirt, scratch your belt and scratch furniture or car seats when seated.

So... I started a search for a new IWB leather holster with snaps/straps instead of a metal clip. I ended up ordering from hanksgunleather.com. I was a little skeptical since the holster was only $40 plus $2 shipping. The holster shipped immediately and arrived in a couple of days. This is by far the most comfortable holster I've worn, standing or seated. It conceals great under any untucked shirt. There is no risk of tearing or scratching anything. I wish I had started here. The best $40 I've spent in a long time. I'm sure more expensive options use better leather, snaps, etc. but this is a great value and worth consideration.

I have 2 favorites. (GALCO Pro436 Pocket Protector) & (TALON Wallet Holster)

Personally I like the High Noon holsters too... That said, my budget determines that I must wait a while to get one... $160.00 Ouch... Saving up for one.

Fobus paddle...I have one for every pistol. When I walk out the door it goes on my pants and belt in 1 second and is removed just as fast. Infinitely adjustable position.. Impervious to moisture..light weight and very retentive. Properly adjusted it is child resistant as an added factor. I wear it under everything including t shirts with nobody noticing. I personally don't like putting leather on my belt...just me maybe.

I bought a nylon holster with a belt clip and a extra mag pouch off ebay. It was cheap and works for me.

Uncle Mikes SideKick pocket holster...keep it in my pocket all day, slip it under my pillow at night

I agree, Fobus paddle holsters are great. I have two of them. Make sure you wear a quality belt, Easy on, easy off, comfortable, indestructable. I love mine.

I'll add "wknigclo" on ebay to the mix. He's an elder holstermaker in Fl that I have been keeping contact with over a year now. He has made a very nice paddle holster for my LC9. I had him cut the leather so that the retention thumb strap wraps around the top of the grip area instead of over the back of the slide. It secures the LC9 much better than the "over the hammer" type thumb straps do. He doesn't list it as it was a special order for me, but it's such a nice holster that I think he should add it to his list. He makes good stuff! I'm going to have him make a pocket holster for the LCP by leaving out the waistband clip on his normal LCP holster. He makes them for naked LCP's and for Crimson Trace sights. Can't say enough about the guy. Look him up. Only negative thing I can say is he doesn't charge enough for the quality work he does

I just bought a Nemisis and tried it out last night, if you want either front pocket carry it works great.

...+1 for the Fobus if you are an OWB patron, which I am. Not yet available for the LCP/CT combo . I removed the CT and it's a beautiful carry. Also, mine is the paddle style, so it's easy on/easy off and stays in place. The package is incredibly compact and as mentioned, can be adjusted for a perfect pistol fit and tension. I also like the High Noon (OWB) products and those are used when the CT is attached.

I bought mine from Ruger as well except , I bought the Galco belt holster . I love it , super comfortable and concealable .

 

[popplecop]

I finally settled on a Galco Horsehide front pocket model PH 436 also numbered K119 H for my front pocket after trying some others. With leather holsters, I like horsehide the best, sorry Trigger.

While it's not my main carry holster for the Elsie, this sure is a nice little package. It rides high and tight.

 

[greensummits]

I use a crossbreed mini tuck. Great IWB holster. It is very comfortable.

 

[charlieboy]

Stoner holster for Crimson Trace IWB (415 80-2 LCPLG) very comfortable.

I'm curious on everyone's thoughts of the Desantis Super Tuck II? I have been eye balling this for a while now that I know about it. I'm a fan of the IWB, little to no now show clip, and built in extra magazine pouch all in one nice package. Is there anything else out there that is similar or better?

 

[Andrew]

good info ill be checking these out

 

[YooperDoug]

Just got my Turtle Creek IWB the other day. What a sweet rig! Quality workmanship,and very comfortable.Fits LCP beautifully!

 

[shustermeister]

I use the DeSantis Superfly for back or front pocket. Stays put and draws smoothly. Costs less than most if price is a concern, it was for me. Good luck. I hope you find what works for you.

+1 on the Superfly - I love it!
