It came in the mail today.

It came in the mail. I just received my MTAC today and not sure what to think. All the hype for this type of holster? I have been using a CompTac under cover Pro for my G22 , for almost 2 years now and it has been great. I thought the switch would be a lot more comfortable?? I have an extended mag release and it does not sit on the leather, but rather diggs into my side. Should I give it time or maybe it is not the one for me? Any suggestions or things I should try??

IMO....get rid of the extended mag release on the G22. Extended mag releases on the Glocks often dig and pinch with a right handed holster setup, especially IWB.

I tried it on and sold it right away. I still think their CTAC model is the best kydex IWB that I have tried. The MTAC is overated.

If the extended mag release sat on the leather, your mag would eject when you least expected it. I think you're going to have that problem with any good holster. I really like my MTAC... have one for my G19 & G26, no problems here.

Change the mag release back to normal...with a bit of practice, muscle memory can have the regular mag release working with no worries of the holster dropping your mag for you.

Good advice. I agree.

Thanks for your suggestions, I will try to change the mag release first, before I try anything else.

Sure sounds like a weapon issue and not a holster issue.

I think any good holster deserves a couple of weeks to give it a fair chance.
