Question Fist Holsters???

Hello All,

I'm thinking about buying a holster from Fist preferably the K8 interchangeable and cantable, tuckble IWB Holster. Does anyone have any feedback or opinions good and bad on this holster or their holsters period.


Thank You

I have dozens of Fist holsters...never a bad one...the quality is good, and it usually is always about 5 weeks...reasonable prices!

Stay armed...stay safe!

Recommended.

Some have suggested they're "crap", but IMO they are a better value than most holsters out there. I've got two of them: the #2 OWB and the #17A-1 IWB. Decent quality, tight and reliable, no frills, relatively inexpensive. Both work very well. I find that I use them more often than anything else, despite having several others. No squeaks or problems. Each holds it fairly tight into the body. Each is comfortable to wear. Both of these are clip-on via leather loops, though most of their designs allow for choice of loops.

Good value for the money, no frills but they work as intended. Great delivery time compared to the top end craftsmen.

Thumbs up FIST Holster Just Ordered

Hey Everyone,

I just ordered a FIST #17A w/body protector and a extra loop. All that for a great value. Now the wait begins. Thanks for the input.

You'll have your holster in just a few weeks, and you won't be disappointed...

I have eleven (11) FIST holsters made for a variety of different guns. I have been extremely satisfied with each of them and particularly satisfied with the FIST customer service.

The quality of each holster was excellent and the time it took to arrive ranged from a minimum of two weeks to a maximum of four weeks.

A word to the wise. At time I wanted something special done to a holster and ended up talking to the head guy there, Jim Murnak, who was extremely knowledgeable and polite. In each case I got exactly what I wanted.

I am quite satisfied with the dealings I have had with FIST and recommend them highly.
