UBG holsters has a nice tuckable IWB. I got it as a straight drop so I can carry it appendix, but I'm sure Nate can make it with a cant. Since I carry a light gun (Kahr PM9), I clip it onto my pants, under the belt, then clip my cellphone case onto the belt over it. No one's noticed where I'm carrying (Until I tell them), & I'm in LE. Obviously, a thin gun works best for tuckable carry.

Curtis27, I wear a leather tuckable M-F.

Smith 642 with clip (I wear under the belt)

Kimber Ultra Carry with belt loop

Both are made by a local guy, but if you want his info, he ships as well. Retired undercover LEO, been doing leather for over 25 years.

Mike,
It is really adjustable and comfortable, although I wear a tank top under my t-shirts for a barrier between the kydex and my skin. I could actually get the Glock to sit lower by reversing the tabs but I want to be able to get a fast grip so it stays up a bit. The good thing about CompTac is you can wear the holster for 30 days and return it for a full refund (less shipping) if you don't like it. Can't beat that. I am going to try a K&D Dakota Defender to see if the leather option is more comfortable but it will be the last leather holster I try. I am happy enough now with the CTAC but holsters are like potato chips.....you can't stop at one.

Thanks Jeremiah. If you don't mind, shoot me his info. I will also tak a look at the UBG hosters as well.

Can the holster makers incorporate clips like the "C" clips? As I have a work phone and a personal phone (and currently the work phone is a Blackberry, so it is a beast), the metal clip is the one item that gets noticed at the office, and people always like asking at the wrong time whether or not I am carrying. I am hoping for a little more "concealability" without looking like Batman with his utility belt (two phones hanging off my belt...)...

My 1911 SA Champ

easily concealed under a t shirt or a cover garment. First holster is Blackhawk Serpa, second IWB kydex hand made holster.
Sorry for the bad quality, the camera flash brought out lots more than the naked eye could see on the mirror.

Rocky, you and I share a like of the SERPA. I love mine. It is my EDC holster. The Fobus is the one I wear if I am going to CCW with an untucked T-shirt, but the SERPA is the holster that you will find on my hip if I am out in town probably 80% of the time.

That holster feels very solid. I can't recommend it enough.

Yep, the Serpa is very stable. Also the added retention and optional belt or paddle mount makes it even better.

Curtis,

I too like the tuckable styles of holsters and the best I have found is the Heritage by Tucker Holsters, made right here in Texas. Here are a few of mine:
PT-145

CZ75BD POLICE

3" SP-101

Thanks! I did a Google search and if they are the one in Houston, I think I found them. I like what I saw, and it looks like I might have found my source for the Tuckable Holsters.
