Is this a decent holster? Im thinking about buying one with the belt clip for easy on/off. Thanks.

It's a quality holster, but the size and placement of the large single clip did not let me place the holster on the part of the belt I wanted (put the clip right over a belt loop). I ended up a exchanging it for a CTAC.

the clip makes it bulge to much IMO. the mtac is one of the most prefered holsters on this site.

its also what i carry.

Obviously everyone has a unique body shape, and bulging/carry comfort will vary from person to person.  

I am a full-figured guy (6'-0" 295lbs.)  and I never wanted to carry IWB because I thought it would be too uncomfortable.  I bought a Crossbreed Supertuck for my carry P7 PSP and it is super comfortable now that it has broken in.  The Mtac is quite similar.  What I found is that the Supertuck is kind of cumbersome to put on and not really all that easy for me to don quickly as I head out the door.  Being a big guy I have to stop and undo my pants to put the thing on.  Then I found the Infidel.  This thing is a breeze to put on.  I loosen my belt (a Crossbreed model) and slip the Infidel into my pants, slide it into position (4:00 for me), tighten my belt and go.  The stiffness of the holster makes it easy to move around after it's inserted and retention is excellent.  Comfort is surprisingly good.  I thought a full Kydex holster would bind, but it's actually more comfortable because it maintains its rigidity and doesn't allow the pistol to flex while in the holster.  I wore my Kahr P45/Infidel combo to the movies the other night and it was really comfortable.  I now have an Infidel for all of my carry weapons.  I can't say that about my Supertuck*.



*I still love my Supertuck, so no need to get off topic about how great it is...

Easy on/off. I have the rear strut on mine so it's as stable/secure as the MTAC or CTAC. I like not having anything in front of the holster when sitting, ymmv.

Similar design is also available from BladeTech


I think it costs slightly less than the Infidel holster. MidwayUSA carries a variety of BladeTech IWB.
I have a CTAC and BladeTech IWB. Personally, I prefer the CTAC for long term carry. But the BladeTech is a lot easier to put in and out.
