The ONE holster

Burk Cornelius · Feb 4, 2011

Most of us have bought/sold/traded carry guns over the years. Carry guns need holsters. What is the one holster that you always find yourself going back to whatever platform you find yourself carrying?

No matter what gun I find myself carrying for more than a week, I always call Nate at UBG Holsters and order a (IWB) Canute

This is my latest one for a G26.

For me it's the Milt Sparks VM2

Just the most comfortable IWB holster I have ever had

For me it's been the Comp-Tac MTAC (IWB). Super comfortable for a cross breed.

Those look much better than the Crossbreed brand holsters. Are they as comfortable?

He calls it an appendix carry, though I wear it at 3. Mine is perfect for me and very comfortable. Perhaps even too comfortable because I forgot I had it on the other day when going into the courthouse. Fortunately, the deputy on duty was very understanding and "suggested" that I go back out to the car and secure it there.

Is it adjustable for cant? It definitely doesn't look like an appendix holster

If you do not ask for it, he will not punch the holes in it. However, I asked for the holes on mine for that very reason. No extra charge, he was happy to oblige.

The guy is all about service. If you are not satisfied, he will take it back and resell it to someone else at a discount. On the double clip (supertuck), he will even put belt holes in it so you can wear the same holster in or out. I am not sure there is enough room on the appendix carry for the belt holes, so I did not request it.

Also does magazine holsters, single or double.

The guy is just super fast, too. turnaround for my order was less than a week.

Why does he call this one "appendix carry"?

Smitcheck · Feb 4, 2011

No idea. The only reason I did not go with the double clip was due to the leather outside the clips - was concerned that they may cause printing. With the appendix carry, the only printing I have to be concerned about is the bottom of my G27.

Three, all are Bianchi.
7S Pancake
19S Field
3S IWB

For me its a Kydex holster of some sort, Lately it's been a Kydex AIWB that I have made.

My favorite of the numerous holsters that I've had is the Crossbreed Super Tuck. I often forget that it is on me it is so comfortable. I have one for my Glock 30 and another for my Walther PPS and they do a great job at concealing them.

JoesGlock · Feb 6, 2011

My favorite is my CrossBreed Super Tuck. I carry my Glock 17 in it. It is by far the most comfortable holster that I own.

I like my crossbreed. Been trying to get one the list for a ss2 but i keep missing the cutoff. Id love a leather iwb for my xd40sc. Ill have to check out that chanute.

The Summer Special is, no doubt, a great holster. I had one but it seemed really thick. The leather is exceptional but with the snaps right over the gun it makes the whole package a little thick for my taste. Your mileage may vary.
