OWB Holsters. Which one?
All right guys. Quick and easy question. Just looking for a reasonably price, reasonable quality, open topped, leather OWB holster (pancake style) mostly for the range but could possibly be used for CCW. I currently use a MTAC Minotaur for IWB and love the holster, but I want leather for OWB. I plan on buying 3 of the same holster for 3 different pistols (one for a 1911, one for an XD45c, and one for a Beretta 92). Here is a short list of what I'm looking at right now. As always, suggestions are appreciated.
High Noon (Slide Guard)
Galco
Don Hume (H721 O.T.)
Fist (#12 Basic)

IMHO, UBG Holsters Regulator is about the best deal around for what you're describing. This holster carries virtually as good as an IWB for me, and that's with a DW CBOB. Quality is superb, and it is a great value. Last time I checked turn around times were very reasonable. I have purchased several items from Nate, and I would not hesitate to recommend this guy and his products.
Goog luck.

Check out the Desantis speed scabbard, also. Of the one you've listed I would go with the Fist.

Galco combat master is what I use for inexpensive OWB.

I have a DeSantis Cozy Partner for IWB and a Don Hume H721 O.T for OWB, both good holsters not too expensive

I have two Don Hume 721's. With my Glock 23 it carries well and is very comfortable. Strangely enough I find it awkward and uncomfortable with my 1911.

I put this in a similar thread. I've been very pleased with this holster.

DeSantis caution
I have 2 DeSantis speed scabbards ,one for a GLOCK 19 and one for an S&W 28. Both bind the to the point it takes two hands to draw. After contacting Customer Service I sent the one for the GLOCK back to be "adjusted". It did not help at all.
I have 5 FIST holsters with tension screws. No problems with security or drawing. Their belt slots are cut too tight for a Beltman double thick belt but relieving the slots is easy to do.

Take a look at the American Heritage of Garrett Holsters. Mine's in the mail to me as we speak so I'll be able to give a more detailed analysis of it once it's in my hands; I know I won't be disappointed!

My first choice would be FIST and closely behind in second would be Don Hume.
I would also recommend another, Adams Holsters. Great guy and makes one heck of a holster. He made me a custom IWB snap on holster for my 1911.

One thing I would recommend and this is to pretty much anyone, I would buy one make sure you like it then branch into the other three. Mainly buying a holster that doesn't work out isn't fun for anyone;) Buying three that don't work out is torture;)
I'd say try one and if it's up to your standards for the price, then go back and get some more;)
Take care!
