IWB cost vs function - XDTalk Forums - Your HS2000/SA-XD Information Source!

there are so many IWB holsters from $40-$120, help me make a decision. i am looking at the ctac

and don hume pcch

the ctac lists for $73 and the pcch for $47. i am a pretty frugal person, so i want the best for the least cost. the only real difference i see between the two is the ctac is adjustable and maybe a bit more stable while the pcch may be a bit more comfortable without the metal hardware against the body. your thoughts???

crossbreed...worth every penny, imho. many of us have purchased the supertuck and are very happy...

A big +1 for Crossbreed! In my opinion they are second to none.

I have the Crossbreed SuperTuck and love it.

Three things to consider when buying an IWB (in no particular order.)
Comfort
Holster positively stays on belt when pistol is drawn (various clip types vs. loop fasteners)
Holster mouth stays open for easy re-holster (no mouth collapse between belt and body when empty)
Many times these attributes cost you more.

Larry, just checked out your holsters, and they look nice. Wondering how you get your "standard" Glock holster to fit both G17s and G21s?

The big thing for me is having two clips, like the MTAC above and the Crossbreed Supertuck. Two clips keeps the holster stable and prevents it from rolling forward or back whenever you sit or stand.

Crossbreed supertuck. I have 6 holsters but only use 1.
