Trying to ID a CCW holster I saw.

RaceRev · July 13th, 2007, 08:52 PM

This is my first post, I just hope someone can help.
At a Gun Show a couple of months ago I saw a holster for a G26 that fit inside the belt and had a "V" area between the belt and the holster that allowed you to tuck in a dress shirt.
I must wear dress pants and a dress shirt - tucked in - do not need to wear a jacket or suit coat most of the time, but weapon must be invisable as much as possible. In south florida this time of year the weather does not lead me to the "wrap around" the chest type - I guess I just don't like them - but the holster I saw would be perfect. Can any one help?

Welcome

Can't help you but with all the knowledge in this place I am sure some guesses or direct hits will come along.

You might want to go up to the "Forum Help & Extras" link in the blue area at the top of the screen and look at the Mega Holster-Makers Link. Check the various makers and see what kind of tuckable holsters they make. Tuckable can be a touchy subject with some makers so if they don't list any tuckables don't bother asking if they make them. Good luck.

Thank you for your response. I may be really dumb, but what is wrong with tuckables? Why is it a touchy subject? Am I trying to obtain something I shouldn't for some reason? I don't want to do something wrong. Thank you.

Not a touchy subject for me. Some folks love them, but to me their the easiest holster to spot someone carrying a tuckable and in my opinion harder (slower) to get into action (requires two hands to access fastest). Now I'm by no means an "expert" on concealed carry methods just a guy whos used pretty much every type of rig out there over the past 20 years of daily concealed carry and I do not (cannot on most days) get busted hiding a weapon.

If it works for you, great, but I dont know a single person that I work with that has kept using one of them after a couple months for the before listed reasons.

Not touchy to me, I don't care to use them but that's just me. Some holster makers think that they are unsafe because of the reasons listed by fed_wif_a_sig. Personally I don't know enough about them to have an opinion. Maybe one of the holster makers who doesn't like them will respond and give you a fuller explanation.

Tuckables do seem have some downsides to them, as mentioned above. I've not found them to work for me, but they may for you. I prefer my Smart Carry over a tuckable. Nothing showing at belt level (no clip,no loop or pulling on the belt ) No shirt tale to pull out of the way, just reach in and get the gun.

It sounds a little like the Galco Skyops Holster

Common misconception, the gun does not point at the jewels with a SC.
