Conceal carry holster for beretta px4 fullsize

I use a Blackhawk Soft IWB holster for my 1911 compact and Full size 1911`s. Always discreet and comfy.

What is the size comparison of your big 1911 to a full size PX4?

I occasionally carry a full size PX4 in a hybrid holster from Thiesholsters. It's a very comfortable holster once you find the right position for you.

How is the retention?

Wow, that holster looks very similar to the alien gear. Maybe there will be hope after all.

Just to put this out there. I am real happy on finding this forum. I do belong to other gun forums besides this one and I also find them a lucky thing in coming across them. (marlinowners and taurusarmed). I been googling and such on finding holsters for my revolvers and already on just this post and others on this site I found a plethora (yes my word of the week ) of holsters for my revolvers that I have.

Retention is perfect for me, I'll try to get a picture when I get home. I went with the horsehide option as it is thinner and supposed to be a bit better in regards to sweat resistance.

I carry a 92FS in a similar hybrid style holster from White Hat. Mine is horsehide as well for the same reason.

I carry a revolver and I been looking for a good IWB and they seem pretty reasonable in price and such.

It's been a few years since getting the holster from theisholsters so I'm not sure if his prices have changed. At the time I got all the higher end options I wanted at price point below what the big guys were charging.

The horsehide was primarily the reason I seriously considered a crossbreed but as I mentioned,I went ahead with the Alien Gear for the trial period. A buddy of mine has the AG and he loves his. Course, he carrys a lot smaller pistol, tho. He carries a Taurus Slim.

I EDC a full-size Beretta PX4 9mm.
My first IWB was a Ramora, which I like and use quite often.

I also bought a Raw Dog single clip hybrid that is relegated to "the box-o-holsters" (sorry, no photo).

My most used with the Storm is a leather holster I made myself,

Fully loaded, I can shake it upside-down and it stays in yet still easy to draw.

That's a good lookin holster you made!

I also considered the one that beretta makes that looks just like that one but decided against it for one because Beretta was awful proud of it at 90 bucks and two, I figured a paddle-type holster would be better.

I'm new to all this so, even though I've learned a lot in the past month, I still have a ways to go...lol.

That's what I'm liking about the alien gear is that it has so much adjustability. If this works out, guess I won't be carrying the extended mag with it...lol. Having 18 rounds of 40 S&W is a good feeling...lol.

Well, got my holster today. Actually feels alright for a full size pistol except I have a bit of an imprinting issue with the grip. First I tried resetting the clips so that the holster rides as low as possible and then tried resetting the front clip to get more clockwise cant. That helped a little but, the end of the grip is still kinda visible.

Any suggestions or do I just need to get a smaller pistol? Which, wouldn't be a bad thing I spose, I'm really interested in my Storm's little, little brother. Lol.

Your going to need to experiment with the position and can't of the holster to find the spot that is a good combination of comfort and possible printing. Lots of factors will affect the printing including body type and clothing. I'm a somewhat larger guy and wear comfortable shirts that are not tight fitting and have no issues in concealing a full size firearm. You may find that you are more comfortable with a smaller gun. That's how the cycle starts! The search for the perfect gun and perfect setup is part of the of the fun. You can never have too many guns or accesories.

What clock position do you wear yours at? The manual for this one says that the 4:30 position is best. Even the 3:00 position is good it says, just not for a slender person. I'm not slender, I'm more of a large frame guy myself.

I primarily just wear tshirts.

I tried this one at the 3 o'clock position but I imprinting was worse.
