This review of the Clinger Gear holster with Comfort Cushion highlights its value and versatility for concealed carry, particularly for 3-5 o'clock positions. While offering good retention and comfort with the cushion, it struggles with deep concealment at the appendix position due to printing, especially when accommodating red dot sights or suppressor height sights. The reviewer notes its generalist nature means it's good at many things but not exceptional at any single one, contrasting it with holsters designed for superior concealment.

Quick Summary

The Clinger Gear holster with Comfort Cushion offers good retention and comfort, particularly for 3-5 o'clock carry positions, with an easy-on/off clip. However, it struggles with deep concealment at the appendix position due to potential printing and is not compatible with red dot sights or suppressor height sights.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the main benefit of the Comfort Cushion on the Clinger Gear holster?

The Comfort Cushion is designed to enhance comfort by relieving hot spots and distributing the load on your waistband. It adheres to the back of the holster, aiming to make carrying a firearm more comfortable throughout the day.

How is the retention on the Clinger Gear holster?

The Clinger Gear holster offers good retention, characterized by a distinct 'snap' when the firearm is inserted. It remains secure even when subjected to shaking, indicating it will hold the firearm reliably during movement.

Does the Clinger Gear holster work well for appendix carry?

While comfortable with the Comfort Cushion for appendix carry and offering good weapon access, the holster can lead to noticeable printing. This is due to the grip potentially separating from the body and the added thickness of the cushion, making deep concealment challenging.

Is the Clinger Gear holster compatible with red dot sights or suppressor height sights?

No, the Clinger Gear holster reviewed is not designed for firearms with red dot sights or suppressor height sights. It lacks the necessary clearance and relief in the trigger guard area to accommodate these accessories.
