I am starting to look for a holster for my glock 19. Have noticed that carrying behind 3 o clock begins to hurt my back after a little bit. Because of this I prefer appendix carry.
Is anyone appendix carrying their glock 19? If so what are you using. Have used a Mr. Softy for other guns before, but not sure how it would handle with a larger pistol.
I have the mr. softy as well. I first carried my cz p-01, and even my sigma for a little while in it. Both pistols carried fine in it, the p-01 didn't work cause of the beavertail and hammer, plus its just heavy. The sigma was better but just a little long. My M&P c is just a bit smaller than a 19.
I'm actually going to the range today and shooting a G19 and hopefully getting myself one today or very soon. But I am going to carry it in the mr softy as well. I have no doubts it will be fine.
BTW, what gen did you get? Any advice on getting a gen 3 or 4? I have heard that a gen 3 is maybe best, but I've found a BNIB unfired gen 4 for $475 on armslist. Kinda thinking I can't beat that. If they still have it after my trip to the range I'm prob picking it up!!
I don't carry a G19, but I have appendix carried an FNP-9, An M&P Shield and a Ruger P345. Based on my experience, the two best holsters I found were a Cane and Derby (they have since radically changed their design and I have heard that their delivery time and customer service have gone in the toilet) and a JM Custom Kydex AIWB (this is what I currently carry and am very happy with).
Many people carry the Glock 19 in a Mr Softy. As long as you have a good belt you will have no problems.
With that said maybe you want more features. The big brother with all bells and whistles to the Mr Softy is Public Secret w/clip
That will take care of any size gun, it is a much thicker package to handle all of the features. Its a trade off like anything else in concealed carry.
Do like any of your products I have tried so far. Have gone for the soft stuff due to cost largely. May be time to save up for the nicer version. Too bad I haven't seen any sales on your site. Would go for the public secret and a mag holder.
Man just got back from the range and renting a 19, put about 100 rnds through it. I HAVE TO HAVE ONE!!! And will very soon. But I got to try the gun out in the holster as well, fit like a dream, no probs I could see.
