What tac-holster to shop for?

[D.Sigurdsson]

I've been looking for a tac holster for some time, but since I am left-handed, not all holsters suit me.

So I am asking for testimony on which holsters have made it and which haven't made it.

I've mostly been checking out Safarland 6004 and a couple of BHI.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Those are the two I use and they do come left handed. Try Botach Tactical or Diamondback Tactical. Diamondback is Denny Chalkers (Red Cell SEAL team 6) company and I have used his equipment and it is good and good service if you order also.Botach has everything you could ever wish for but their service is notorious in the biz as ****ty!!

If I were you I would look at the High Speed Gear Inc. (HSGI) holsters www.highspeedgearinc.com.

I got one for my SIG 228 (M-11 Pistol) in Gene's new Khaki color. The new khaki blends in with the BDU and DCU uniforms. The rig rides very well and can be fitted for four mag pouches at no extra charge. I also use Blackhawks coiled retention lanyard with the holster. You will never go wrong with this set-up.

I just recently bought a Khaki Wasatch plate carrier from HSGI also, top notch quality. A friend of mine in 19th Group used a HSGI Wasatch Chest Rig in A-stan and my office partner knows a guy in Blackwater that used the Wasatch also in Iraq for a year. They both gave Gene at HSGI high ratings for his gear.

Some of G-Code holsters use Gene's drop leg platform for their SOC holster. This says alot for them if other companies use his platform.

For my money I would get the HSGI drop leg holster, give Gene a call at 1-877-301-2116 and he can answer all you questions before placing the order.

HGSI. Gene is good at jobs that others skimp on, such as you irregulars who shoot with the wrong hand.

The Safarland 6004 has worked well for me. Alot of guys are using them or the BHI. The 6004 is more secure.

I'd go with the 6004 rig. It rides well and seats the pistol well while remaining comfortable and secure. I would try to stay away from Blackhawk holsters though. I have had one or two and they have tended to slide down my leg or just become uncomfortable. The BHI lanyards are pretty good to, but right now I have a TAG lanyard set up.

Safariland 6004 SLS works for us.

[D.Sigurdsson]

Thanks for the help, I think I'm gonna get 6004, I have a noname holster and it keeps sliding down my leg, so since the 6004 is more secure and rides better.

so thanks, you guys have made this hard decision into a pretty easy one.

I can echo what Palm Grunt & HoboWithAK said about HSGI, I have a left handed drop that works great, fits my ParaOrdP14 without a hitch.

Safariland works great. Note**** just make sure that if you get the speed holster you get the safety catch version, or you will lose your weapon if you don't have a laniard!!

I am using a 6004 too....it is good.......

One nice feature about the HSGI holster is that you can add on a removeable holster flap if you need one. The Diamond mesh backing is definitely a comfortable setup, and HSGI has added it to 6004s as well.
:D
