I lean toward Kydex for the range, but leather feels good for everyday carry. It’s all about knowing your use case!

22

Can we talk about clip placement too? If it’s not in the right spot, it can affect your draw. Anyone have tips on adjusting holster clips?

23

Absolutely! It’s all about personal preference. Some people like it higher for concealment, while others prefer lower for faster access.

I’ve heard mixed reviews on retention straps. Some love them for security, while others find them cumbersome. What do you all think?

Retention straps can be an acquired taste! If you practice your draw, they can work well.

Is it just me, or does it feel like finding the perfect holster can be a part-time job? I feel like I’ve tried 10 already!

Haha, I get that! I feel like I’m on a holster journey that’ll never end!

Honestly, I’ve found that testing in real-life scenarios is key. Whether it’s a range day or just out running errands, comfort during use is vital.

I’m looking for some recommendations on holsters for my Colt Python 4-inch. What brands do you all trust?

31

I highly recommend checking out Galco. They make some really high-quality leather holsters that fit the Colt Python like a glove!

32

I’ve heard great things about Galco as well! However, I’ve found that Bianchi also offers a solid option with their outdoor holster. It fits snugly and is quite durable.

33

Don’t forget about Safariland! Their holsters provide a good balance of retention and accessibility, especially for competitive shooting.

While I agree Galco is popular, I’ve had mixed results with their customer service. It’s something to consider if you’re ordering online.

I’m a fan of cross-draw holsters for revolvers. Has anyone tried the DeSantis models? I hear they’re pretty versatile.

36

Yes! I had the DeSantis for a while, but the leather was a bit stiff initially. It took some breaking in but was great after that.

That’s a bummer! Good customer service can make a difference. I had a great experience with Alien Gear, but they specialize more in modern firearms.

Is there a specific type of holster you’re leaning towards, like OWB or IWB? It might change the recommendations a bit.

39

Good point! I’m definitely looking for something OWB for easier access during outdoor activities.

Have you checked out SERPA holsters? They’re pretty popular, but their retention might be too tight for some.
