I’ve recently acquired a Sig P229 Legion and I’m on the hunt for the best holster to complement it. I’ve done some research, but the options are overwhelming, and I’d love to hear from fellow enthusiasts.
Comfort and Fit
Since the P229 Legion is a compact pistol, comfort is key. I’m looking for something that won’t dig into my side during prolonged wear. I’ve heard good things about both IWB (Inside the Waistband) and OWB (Outside the Waistband) holsters, but I’m leaning towards IWB for concealed carry.
Safety Features
Another crucial factor is safety. I want a holster that securely retains the firearm but also allows for a smooth draw when needed. Have any of you tried holsters that have tension adjustments?
Material and Durability
I’ve seen options in leather, Kydex, and hybrid materials. I’d like something durable that will stand the test of time without sacrificing comfort.
Recommendations?
If anyone has specific brands or models that you’ve had a good experience with while carrying the Sig P229 Legion, please share! How do they perform when it comes to comfort, concealability, and accessibility?
I really appreciate any insight or personal experiences you can share. Thanks in advance for your help!
I’ve tried a few different holsters for my P229 Legion. I found that Kydex offers great retention and quick draw speed. It’s perfect for day-to-day carry and doesn’t lose its shape over time.
I’ve been using a hybrid holster which combines both Kydex and leather. It’s surprisingly comfy while offering great draw speed. I’d recommend trying hybrids for versatility.
At the end of the day, it comes down to personal preference and activity. There’s no one-size-fits-all! What works for one person might not work for another.
I’ve been carrying my Sig P229 Legion in a CrossBreed SuperTuck Deluxe for a while now. It’s really comfortable for concealed carry and allows for great accessibility. Highly recommend it!
