Three Local(OKC Area) Places to Get Great Holsters.

Some are specific to Competition some are specific to Concealment. Some are a cross between competition and concealment.

The main thing to look for in a limited holster is the name Triple Crown, made by our very own TroyF.

Honestly, I wouldn't order one unless you've handled it first. I've ordered a couple online that were supposed to be "perfect" for my gun, and they don't fit, are a POS, or hard as hell to get on and off. Go to a few local places, try them on, make sure they fit, make sure you get a good draw, make sure they're not rubbing uncomfortably, etc.
Patriot Industries in Guthrie custom makes kydex/leather holsters that are fit for you and your gun while you're waiting (~10-15 minutes). They're extremely good holsters and only go for around $50. Similar holsters that use cheaper clips sell for about $100 online.
Spec-Ops in OKC sells police/ems uniforms and equipment. Places like that, you can go in and check things out first.

I'll also recommend Triple Crown holsters. He's a top notch guy and makes a great product.
He also shoots competitions with most of us so he has first hand experience in what works and what doesn't.

Since he is looking for a competition holster, I recommend going to a match and test, fondle and inspect all of the holsters there and you will get a good idea of what you like. You will see KyTac, Triple Crown, Blade-Tech all being used at ajust about any local matches
FYI, they had a big fire the other day. I don't know if they are open

Oh wow ... I drive by there every night going to work and I didn't even notice. I've been making that 45 minute drive for so long I just do it on autopilot now.

Blade-tech makes a great and affordable holster. I like their Tek-lok mount a lot. The mount is what attaches the holster to the belt. They have another mount called the Sting Ray, and I really feel that the Sting Ray is an idea conceived and executed by a group of semi-retarded dolphins.

No, they stopped using dolphins for testing. They've moved on to rabid iguanas.

Triple crown or blade tech and don't worry about it any more.

There are a bunch of great holsters out there.
This is sound advice. I'm pretty sure you can find every make and model of holster out there at the local matches. Go try them out and visit with the guys using them to get first hand likes and dislikes on each and then make an educated decision.
