Just picked up a Gen 4 G26 and need a holster for it.  I'm having a hard time deciding.  Holsters I use currently are an Old Faithul IWB for an XDS and a RCS Phantom OWB for a G19.  I've tried a Crossbreed IWB and didn't like it.

I want to carry the G26 IWB at 4:00.  So far I'm considering an Alien Gear 3.0, Comp Tac MTAC, or a SHTF Ace-1 Gen 2.  I'd also be okay with an all kydex design as long as it's comfortable for all day wear.

For OWB carry my vote would go for either the RCS Phantom or the Bravo Concealment BCA or RTT rig. I have the RTT for my G26 that I got from another member here on the board:

I carry a G26 in a Black Point Tactical, Mini Wing holster both at 12:00 and 3:00 and love it.

Now that's an interesting design.  How's the comfort?

MTAC if you have to go IWB, Infidel if you need to remove it often (single clip) like when you arrive at work, and leave it in your car, then need to throw it back on when you leave work.

I have had M-Tac holster for some years now and really like them.  Have three in total one for my G19, P7, and PPS.

I kept mine simple.  Found it on eBay for ten bucks or so and it's the most comfortable IWB I've used in a long time.  As a bonus it's solid enough to make appendix carry a realistic option.

Comp-Tac MTAC. I've tried numerous holsters over the years and the MTAC is my favorite by far.

JM Custom Kydex IWB Version 3 SL (Soft Loop).  10 degree cant probably.  I used 20 degrees for my G34 but he recommends less for smaller pistols I believe.

http://www.jmcustomkydex.com/p/IWB3-SL.html

I think those hybrid holsters look more comfortable than they are in practice.  They are huge and take up a lot or real estate on your waist.   That means more material to try to conform to your body, more heat held in, and more sweat.  After seeing my JM Custom holsters my father in law switched to a JM Custom Ver 3 SL for his G19 from a leather/Kydex hybrid.  The comfort of the JM custom blew him away.  The design is very minimalist so that means less material stuffed down your pants.

Before JM Custom I carried Raven holsters IWB.  I thought thew were pretty comfortable and carried that way for years.  After carrying the JMCK Version 3 SL those "pancake" style Kydex holsters are akin to sticking a lunch tray down your pants....lol.

Incredibly comfortable.  Very positive retention, and the "wings" that the belt clip fasten to are made of leather so there is some give to it.  Like I said, I carry either appendix or 3:00 and love it.  I really do forget its there. It is much easier to get on and off, and not as hot as the traditional leather/kydex.  I considered the T-Rex and the Raven Eidiolon.  I highly recommend it, would buy another, and am no way associated with Black Point Tactical.

I have found the MTAC to be the most comfortable and easiest to coneal my G26, G19, G30S.... I have had best luck between 3:00 and 4:00 o'clock position
