am looking to holster a fullsize .40. outside..on a belt. any suggestions? don't have a whole lot of experience with makes, models, or materials or the cant/uncanted idea. i'll likely be using it for a practical pistol leauge. and am also thinking for short day hikes in wooded/forested areas. for that reason, maybe an all weather material? any thoughts? |

I have a Slide Guard from Highnoon holsters for my USP45c. I really like it.Slide Guard Cowhide is $60 Horsehide is $85 When I ordered mine, it only took like two weeks to get. Easy people to deal with. I use it for daliy carry. And for IDPA. Also, Fobus are dirt cheap, and very good holsters. |

Are they as secure as a thumbstrap? Probably not. But the Blade-Tech I mentioned has been through numerous training exercises with me and my pistol has NEVER fallen out. There are screws which can vary the tightness of the holster. Last week I went through an AR obstacle course with my USP40f in the bladetech holster. THis included low crawl (elbows/prone), stairs, jumps and a firepole. Never came close to losing the pistol. |

Try Kramer, they make some the finest holsters in the world. www.kramerleather.com Get horsehide, it's far superior to cow leather. I would urge you to consider an inside the waistband, kramer's IWB#2 to be precise. IWB's in general are superior in weapons retention. If your set on outside, check out Kramer's belt scabbard. Good luck! |
