Frequently Asked Questions

What are the essential criteria for a good concealed carry holster?

A good holster must protect the trigger from accidental discharge, be made of durable materials like Kydex or leather, offer secure retention to keep the firearm in place, allow for easy concealment, and provide a solid grip for a quick and safe draw.

Why is the Urban Carry holster considered a 'stupid' design?

The Urban Carry requires drawing the entire holster from the pants before the gun, which is slow and unreliable. A tight belt makes the draw difficult, and the design risks launching the gun if pulled too hard.

What are the main criticisms of the Versacarry holster?

The Versacarry uses a plastic stem for retention that can break. It lacks trigger coverage, prevents re-holstering without removal, and offers no sweat protection, potentially causing firearm rust.

Are budget holsters like Uncle Mike's a good option for concealed carry?

Generally no. While budget-friendly, Uncle Mike's 'one-size-fits-all' approach leads to poor fit, terrible retention, and low-quality finishes. Skimping on a holster for a quality CCW is a significant safety risk.
