Blade-Tech OWB - pros/cons of different mount systems?
10/17/2011 1:45:32 PM
Looking at their OWB (weapon + tactical light) WRS (retention) holsters, there are three belt mount options: Tek-Lok, SRB Loop, and 3" loop.
Any reason to choose one over the others? My other holsters are all IWB concealment so I've got no experience here.
Tek-Lok
SRB Loop
3" Loop
ETA: Prices are the same for all three variants

I'm confused. I like my Tech-lok system but that is for the belt attachment. It is not a weapon retention system.

i am not real big on a rolltop Lvl 3 holster for daily or CCW. they are not exactly thin and easy to cover. those are more geared to duty holsters for LE.
our tazer holster use the tek lock and they work well. easier to take on and off than a loop.

This isn't for daily carry (my normal carry is an XD9sc w/crossbreed supertuck), but there are times I'd like to carry my USP tac w/light. There don't seem to be a lot of options.

if concealment is in no way shape or form a concern.... personally i'd get it with the tecklock. the 3" loop is for a large pistol belt and IIRC the SRB is for a standard pistol belt, both will be too large for a normal pants belt. the tek lock is a bit adjustable.

Thanks, that helps! I have a standard 2" double thickness holster belt. I believe the Tek-Lok also allows relocation to other mount locations (vest, thigh rig, etc.) - not that its relevant, but if there are no downsides to it and its no more expensive....
