Save a buck and get the job done

Gun HolstersUncle Mikes holsters have been around for a long time and I know some people have it in for them because they aren’t very expensive and many of them are made out of Nylon.    After being in the gun industry for so many years, I’m starting to be amazed at the number of people I have respect for that are walking around with 38 Specials and 32ACP pocket guns and believe me, they aren’t underpowered.    The experts don’t always carry the most expensive holsters and gear, sometimes they just use when is neccessary and don’t waste money.

The move away from leather holsters is about as common as the move away from steel guns to polymer.   Both are time tested products that work in certain conditions, but there are many advantages Kydex and Polymer have over the stuff your Daddy carried.    I’ve got lots of nice leather holsters that look nice, but I don’t like the idea of using them in environments that get muddy or places I know I’ll be sweating.   Uncle Mikes gun holsters are a very inexpensive investment, but it’s an inexpensive investment in something that gets the job done

Concealed and Comfort

Gun HolstersWhen deciding on which type of method to conceal a firearm, one most always remember the environment you will be carrying in.  All firearms can be carried in one way or the other, but some firearms will become extremely uncomfortable to carry in certain climates and or situations.

Carrying IWB (inside the wasteband) is a popular way of carrying, but if you are carrying in this method and doing a lot of sitting or driving, it may quickly not become very comfortable or practical.  Here is a selection of gun holster options, Bulldog, Bianchi, Galco, Blackhawk, Uncle Mike’s, Fobus, Don Hume, Safariland and Glock.  Gun Holsters selection can also depend on the climate you are in.  I’ve seen a few firearms have their finish ruined because the  user was unaware of the fact that leather holsters absorb sweat and the salts can pit the finish on your firearm even if the firearm was clean when it went into the holster.
