Don't expect help from Fobus. They've never returned any of my emails.

The RU97 works, but not well. I could never get the retention I wanted without modification. I eventually gave it to a friend for range use. For basically the same price you can get a Galco M5X and a FREE coffee mug.

The Galco is exponentially superior to the Fobus, plus it's made for the gun. Model M5X470

just had a quick question for you guys, what do you prefer for a IWB: leather or kydex?
i've heard kydex is more concealed and obviously not harmed by persperation but leather seems more durable and sturdy. anyone have any experience with this?

I use a High Noon Under Taker rig for my P-01. It carries easy, and works slick.

Those with the High Noon Mr Softy/Bare Asset holsters... how is it for one-handed re-holster?  Are you able to easily accomplish this, or due to construction, is it a '2-handed job'?
Also... do you find that the decock lever, etc digs into your sides at all, being that it's exposed?

 

I currently use a Galco M5X that I am extremely happy with, but am looking for small, affordable IWB.

 

Recently purchased a Crossbreed Supertuck from a fellow forumer here, and while it's an excellent holster... it's a bit too bulky for me (I'm a small guy)   Plus, I can't seem to get a good position given the belt loop locations of my everyday pants (5.11 tactical).  Will probably end up putting it back up for sale.   Smaller profile, belt-clip holster seems like it might work better for me.

I use the Mr. Softy and you kind of have to use two hands to re-holster it but its still a very nice piece. Once you've broken it in a bit the draw is very smooth and the gun stays in place very nicely. As far as the any part digging into your side, I really haven't had an issue with that happening at all. Also, the clip is sturdy and strong enough so you don't have to use a belt if you dont want to.

My wife notices the marks left by my gun long after I've taken it off. I use an inexpensive G&G IWB with the metal clip. The decock lever etc. leaves a pretty gnarly looking mark. It's a little uncomfortable, but not enough to quit using it. I'm a tall, skinny guy, so the IWB helps when I want good concealment with a T-shirt or shorter length, untucked polo. I can easily re-holster one handed.

I had a Bianchi M100 IWB but it was the wrong size... just too tight.


I just ordered a new IWB from www.theholsterstore.com. The one they made for my G27 is top notch. Ill post pics of the P01 when it comes in!

I'll toss my two cents in about www.kdholsters.com. Super IWB at decent price.

I'll second that, inasmuch as quality work for a decent price. I have a belt and mag pouch from them that are awesome!

I have to relay my experience with the Galco Quick Slide Holster, link below to Galco's page.  For me this holster feels great and it fits the CZ perfectly.  I use the right hand holster in the Havana color which is model# QS248H.  The retail is about $93 but I got lucky and found a new one on e-bay for $49!   ;D

The exact model is M5X470.
So this model works well?  I'm looking for a no-frills P01 holster for times I'll be in open-carry mode.

I only have Bianchi 100 size 11 right now, which is a good IWB solution, but looks dorky when OWB.

And Sravaka, that Galco Quick Slide looks really nice.  Kind of pricey but maybe it's worth it.

It works quite well! The "teeth" that secure it are quite long, and I can't imagine them slipping out from under a belt on a draw, and there are two adjustments for tension. One of the best $25 purchases I've made!

Well Bob . .  I really like it.  Galco makes top quality gun leather.  I did find another new on e on E-Bay for you just a minute ago but it is $80.99 + $6 for shipping out of Nebraska.  I just got lucky and found mine in a little shop in Maine.  It had been on his shelf too long and when I saw the price I had to get it.  I was actually looking for Galco's full concealment holster at the time, which is also pricey, but I am actually glad I got the quick slide instead because I love the open end on it.  It also fits my Sig Sauer P225 perfectly as well so it can pull double duty.

The Galco M5x470 is fantastic. I wear it nearly every day. It's comfortable all day long and draws quickly and reholsters securely. You can't ask for a better plastic paddle holster. I highly recommend it.
