Question Anyone have one of these?

Curious if they're everything they're cracked up to be.....

The "one size fits all" holster rarely works.

I'd pass on this one...

"cracked up"... yeah, that's exactly what I did when I saw it!

I wouldn't waste my money on this one bro! It probably holds the world record time for ending up in the "Box-O-Holsters"!

Never go cheap on a holster or belt.

I have a holster I bought from cheaperthandirt that looks just like that one, but it was about $15 from them. It is OK, but like the others said you will be happier with a better holster. I have since bought a MTAC minotaur and really like it!

I've looked at them (or almost the same) a couple of times, they would probably be ok for a small, light weight gun or to use in a pinch if you didn't have anything else and were waiting for a different holster to arrive.

I have on and it fits all my large frame autos,if i wanta carry my sigpro 2022 or G17 or SA XD9 I can use this one holster you can carry IWB or OWB and it has fairly decent retention,the one drawback is there is no shield to keep gun away from skin and if you are in a hot environment wipe the sweat off you're gun daily or you may get rust problem.Also it requires 2 hands to holster due to spreading holster to start muzzle in

I'd have to agree with both of these statements.

You could always order a 100.00 custom holster and wait 2 or 3 years to get it lol

Or you could order from any number of holster makers (for less then $100) who post on this forum and wait two or three months.
