Forums / Gun Discussion / Tactical Thigh Holsters

In an all out conflict it would be very useful and where you can carry openly. Runs should have some insight on the use of them in combative situations for sure. As should all recent combat vets and some LEO's.

A few of the guys mess around with them at the range and seem to do ok with them.

I love the Blackhawk Serpa holster. Very secure, and very fast. I haven't tried the level 3 retention holster yet. I also like the Safariland 6004, but I did break the plunger spring that locks the retention hood in place from dry fire practice. The Blackhawk Omega holster is a goot quality thumb break holster if you prefer nylon. Whatever you do, stay the hell away from Uncle Mike's holsters. Fucking garbage

Mike's products are another example of: you get what you pay for. Their stuff is cheap, but for something like a soft sided case for my .22 henry, its perfectly fine. Would I trust in their products for a holster? No.

i really like my Uncle Mikes Kydex for my G26,it has two retention screws and can be worn either as a belt slide or paddle,i have been happy with either but prefer the belt slide,i also have a FOBUS kydex for my G26,now thats a POS,its a paddle holster and its flimsy,no retention screws and there is an annoying screw head where the paddle attaches to the holster that i jamb my thumb fingernail on when i am drawing the gun.

I just bought one, and I love it. It will enable me to carry comfortably while still holding on to my rifle and a second pistol on my vest. Don't forget to add a dump pouch to your system.
