With all the chaos in the world (and even more now with corona) and sitting on my a$$, I feel like I need to upgrad my setup this month. Right now I cc Glock19, iwb with Kore 1.5" tactical belt (my favorite belt) and I want to look at a new holster and the new kore 1.75" garrison belt. Holds more mags and gear. So I wanted some feedback on any new holsters folks have tried or would recommend that wil work with my glock and 1.75" belt?
Ideas on (finding/buying) a new holster
- Thread starter OwenP
- Start date
Ive bought plenty of expensive holsters.
Now I only use We The People for IWB with my Glock 20 and Shield 9mm.
I also have $40 Desantis thumb break Scabbards for most of my guns....G20, Shield, GP100, S101....
These 2brands serve me well although many will call them crap.....each to their own.

I ordered a 1791 OWB for my P227, gets here Wednesday.
I'm running DeSantis and Galco for both leather and kydex. My G19 runs a Galco Corvus carbon fiber look kydex or a Galco FLETCH leather. Sig P365 in a DeSantis Slim Tuck IWB kydex or Galco Combat Master. G43 in the same type DeSantis Slim Tuck IWB. S&W 1911 Scandium in a Galco Combat Master or BladeTech IWB.
Also have a Desantis leather for my Ruger SP101.

WTP are decent holsters.
They retain the gun great, even my heavy G20. They are comfortable and easy to put on and off.
My one suggestion is to remove the rubber spacers between the clip and the holster......it hold onto your belt better.
The DeSantis are pretty great.
I bought some $150-$200 leather holsters that I hate. The leather is far too stiff and thick.
DeSantis leather is thin but perfectly stiff and breaks in great.
At $40-$50 you cant beat them.

How do you want to carry? At the 4 o’clock or appendix etc?
Leather or kydex. What cant or angle would you want to carry . Is it on the belt or inside the belt carry?

Since my last post I’ve clearly had a lot of time on my hands at home to do my research and order my new setup- so I
went back to kore and picked up their new garrison belt. I measured it and it really is a full 1.75 inches wide as the company states. Same ratchet system which I am familiar with an really like.
Thanks for the recommendations on holsters- I went with the Kydex IWB and loaded up the belt- the Garrison could handle the holster and with the wider belt I can now carry more mags and a knife now. My wife thinks it’s a bit crazy to see all this loaded up and doubts it can hold the weight but I showed her how to adjust the belt tighter to my waist for support.
First tried it out for the day around the house and yard is that its a beast. I plan to post a better review once next month if this damn lockdown is lifted after I test this thing out for any of you who are interested.

I have a Tulster & Garret industries both quality holsters , the Garret has the inside of the Kydex lined with leather
and the Tulster is just Kydex , both are great quality and is a toss up between which one I prefer .

Well- now that I've had the new kore garrison style belt for about a bit or so I wanted to post a followup because sometimes intial quality goes away once you use it. So far I was able to sneak in a few range runs and in between have worn it for my owb carry. For the range its stiff and supportive enough to hold my glock and I can honestly say there is no real sign of wear so far. the amount I looseN and tighten I would imagine the teeth of this thing would be done- but it really sinches up like day one. Thats huge when your adding and subtracting gear as much as I do. Its a beast quite honestly. For edc I found it ony works for owb. Its waaay to wide and stiff for appendix and iwb (must the the 1.75 width.) none the less I wanted to update those who read my post because if we buy crap and don’t share it ain’t cool. This is not crap. This thing is legit.
Speaking of- Does anyone else have a favorite range belt ?

Can’t recommend Armor Guard holsters enough. Very high quality and great attention to detail. All edges are rounded and buffed so they are comfortable. He also uses the higher quality boltaron instead of kydex. I’ve ordered like 7 things from him and they are all fantastic.

As for ranfe belt... I absolutely love my Blue Alpha Gear Double Belt with Molle...
The inner belt is their low pro edc belt but with the added female hook and loop, I've worn their normal low pro edc belt for over a year and a half and love it (now using the one that came with my range belt) and i dont think my EDC set up would be considered "light".
But then you can toss the outer belt right on which has the male hook and loop on the inside to secure it to the inner belt.
