Looking into geting my first glock, own about 5 other handguns and would like to own a glock because i have heard mostly all good things about them, Looking into geting the glock 23 .4O. Already own a very reliable .45acp and 9mm. Any thing i should know about this model. also who makes a good holster for the glock 23 thanks |
i take it that an OWB holster is in order then next question is, would you prefer a passive retention holster, where its simply the tension of the holster's screws/body that secures your firearm (good for jumping around, sucks for retention against grabs)--in this case, a good paddle or belt holster from the aftermentioned brands would work if you want a level II retention hoslter w/ a secure anti-grab lock, safariland offers the best models for this job imo another you may want to look at is the Blackhawk (the Serpa comes to mind, abet that some training facilities dont like how the side release tab is mounted) |
oh, and i forgot: Bianchi offers good stuff too: www.bianchi-intl.com/ www.blade-tech.com/Duty-Holsters-c-258.html--i do NOT recommend the tec lock system b/c its too flimsy and unbalanced imo www.safariland.com/duty/holsters.aspx www.usgalco.com/HolsterPT1.asp i dont prefer the ones w/ thumb breaks, but thats just me; for me, i prefer the 2nd retention feature to be either a thumb or finger release i use the Safariland 0706 mostly fwiw--it unlocks by pulling the gun slightly to the rear to release the lock |
