Title: RDR holsters
Post by: Dave84 on March 07 2014 06:32:49 PM MST
Thought I'd post something useful that I think others will also like rather than me only asking questions on here. Recently ordered an RDR IWB holster for my Glock 29 in military green in September. It arrived October. The overall look/feel of this thing is amazing. Very sturdy, holds onto your weapon securely and most important for me is its ease of use. The clamp has a lot of tension so you just slide it over your belt and you are locked on. Taking it off is easy. Just pull up on the bottom of the clamp and pull the holster off with your other hand. This holster has got me carry my Fatboy 29 a lot more than I ever used to. Was usually carrying an easy to hide Kahr. The holster that I couldn't stand dealing with was a brown leather desantis with 2 loops with snaps that were almost impossible to put around your belt and get to properly snap.

Thanks for the link.  The price is right.  I wish there was a picture of the holster with the tuckable strut.  I might have to give this a try for my G29 Gen 4.  I have a couple of holsters that I made myself that are a laugh that I am using until I find a good one :))

Hammeredbean, welcome to the forum.  I have been carrying in the JS IWB for my G-29 or G-30, very light, simple and not bulky.   http://armory.jsholsters.com/shop/item.aspx?itemid=2060 (http://armory.jsholsters.com/shop/item.aspx?itemid=2060)

It is similar to the one Dave84 shows, one piece construction, but it only has the two screws for the tension on the frame.

That JS holster looks great too.  If there is one thing I have learned carrying IWB exclusively...is that the less you put in your pants, the better off you are...at least for me.  I like one clip holsters because I don't have to have a "session" every time I get dressed.  I say this though I have bid on a super tuck on ebay Ha!  I think I want to remind myself just once more that a wide dual clip holster is not for me.  I tried a supertuck with a 5" 1911 and it was very comfy but it was a pain to put on and squeaked alot.  The holsters I have made to get me by are just like the JS holster....only ugly and botched together....but functional.  There is no danger of me dabbling in the holster business!  HAHA

I haven't tried the tuckable strut version myself. The regular one has served me perfectly so far. No coming loose or having my gun and holster nearly pop out. That has happened to me with garbage holsters before. I like what you said about the dual clips being a session to put on. So true. Have a Foxx IWB hybrid for my PPQ that is a pain in the but to put on, comfortable, and it squeaks all the time.
I highly recommend RDR.

I'd say they have it somewhere in the low to mid area. I really like this thing. Have holsters that cost more but this thing is my #1 fav.
