A Couple of Good Carry Holsters...
« on: December 04, 2017, 09:48:22 PM »
For a long time I carried IWB, but that has become too uncomfortable and impractical. So, I went to OWB. I put a lot of thought into a holster. I knew I didn't want to spend a lot of money, but I did not want to sacrifice quality either. For range use, I have several German Police surplus P6/SIG 225 holsters, so I looked for German police concealment holsters and found two that work very well with my Tristar P100, AND my SAR B6P fullsize. I found my holsters at RTG Parts. One is for the P6. the other is for a Walther P5 or H&K USP. Both holsters offer a very good fit for either full or compact CZ clones. The first one is  a P5, thumb break pancake, and was received in very good/nearly new condition. The second one is a P6, snap strap, and was typical "B" grade surplus... not much to look at but very serviceable, with lots of years left on it. Both were excellent values. Having carried both, I prefer a thumb break. The pancake supports the weight of my P100 much better, but it seems the snap strap might not print quite as badly.

After pushing these holsters, I thought it might be a good idea to show you how they fit.... I like all three of them (as well as my 2 other Polizei surplus holsters). The P6 (SIG P225) duty holster, which I didn't include earlier, but did in the holster sticky, is my range holster. The P6, snap strap pancake is my old EDC holster, now my spare, and and the 3 slot, P5 (Walther P5/H&K USP) thumb break pancake is my new EDC holster. This holster came to me almost as new. It wasn't even broken in.  I cannot recommend them highly enough. These are all available at RTG Parts

Great find, and leather is always a good alternative to modern Kydex.
I have been looking for a good holster that fit my P120 snug and safe. I believe I will get the P5 for my P120 and report with some pictures.
Thanks for the links

Great video! You hit all of my favorite points on this holster. It does ride very well! My EDC is my P100, which with 15 rounds and one in the pipe weighs in at a hefty, 44oz, and this holster tucks it up comfortably to my side. It IS a heavyweight, so a good belt is a must. I found a belt on Amazon that does perfectly and it is the only belt I have worn for over 2 years. It is a reversible (Black/Coyote) belt made from 2 plies of heavy, nylon web. The price is not bad either...

If you don't need the extra support, or don't want the reversible belt, a similar, single-ply, belt is available in a range of colors, for an even better price.

One more time, thank you "Hammack".
I have placed that belt on my "wish list" with Amazon, and will make sure to order it.
Can't bit the $15 price tag. I will report after I get it in and try it, but it will be some time. I have many other videos to make. Some are guns related, and some are (my work and hobby) cooking videos  :P
