Don Hume Jit holsters, fast and friendly
I’ve been in a holster and tactical clothing buying binge and I’ve learned a lot in the last year. Holsters all look the same after awhile and i really don’t feel the desire to buy too many more for most of the guns I own, but there are a few I picked up just to try out and see what was out there. The best holster that I have found looked like it was no real advantage over any of the paddle or OWB holsters I already own, but the Don Hume Jit holster is turning out to be my favorite. I was never one to sit down and eat a big breakfast before going to work, I get out of bed grab something to eat and get moving. The idea of having to loop belts through holsters along with getting dressed every morning seemed like more of a chore for me and I avoided them. I liked paddle or clip on holsters because i was done in a second.
The Jit holsters real advantage to me is that the holster isn’t any bigger than it’s needed to be and helps reduce the amount of printing you might have with a larger holster. Some people may not like the fact that the whole gun is not protected by the holster, but you should notice this gun does feel like it comes out of the holster fast. I have noticed that the gun does look like it’s a bit dry when carrying this way due to it being exposed to clothing so you may want to wipe your gun down more often, Don Hume holsters are very reliable when it comes to getting a holster that fits and I have never had to return one that didn’t function properly. My favorite CCW now is a Glock 19 in the Jit holster for 3/4 of the year.
If you are searching the web for a gun holster for a training class or you are looking for your first CCW Holster and your looking for a paddle holster or OWB holster, Fobus holsters are the staple for gun owners. There are always critics of various holster designs, but for those looking to carry a gun, the Fobus Paddle holster is a very comfortable and reliablie firearm retention device. Fobus holsters are excellent for carrying full size autos. From my own experience, most people prefer to train with full size autos for accuracy and capacity reasons and carrying a gun IWB is pretty much a problem for most operators.
