Fobus GLC IWB holster

Now I know Fobus is not too popular and I'm one of those few that actually like their holsters, mostly because of their retention, but this one did surprise me. I've been wearing it since I got home from work tonight, but unfortunately I can't wear it out of the house until I receive my CCW permit in the mail. Anyway, here are a few pictures.



As you can see in this first picture, the hook at the top grabs the top of your pants and there is an indentation where the belt holds the holster from the outside of the pants to keep the holster from following the gun with the draw.



Holster on, shirt down.



Here's how it fits against the body. If you lean into it, the slide does dig into the side a bit, but the holster is a flexible rubber and is surprisingly comfortable. The big plus of this one over the Galco I have is that the holster doesn't collapse when I draw. It's easy to reholster one handed because of the design. The retention system is similar to the paddles, but it's not quite as tight. Definitely a good thing as it does not take a swift draw to unholster. Definitely got a lot more than I expected for $28. I'm sure I'll end up trying the supertuck when I get tired of this one, but I am happy with this purchase.
