    The QMS mount they have is on the shortlist of things other companies do that I wish I had thought of.

    Re the OP's question - Raven is a nicer better finished holster than Bravo.

    The bravo isn't bad but those little touches = comfort when wearing the holster all day. I have one Kaluban Cloak for a P229r - it's ok but I prefer the fit of the Raven. Plus they've had some issues on the business / delivery side.

    Ive tried one JM holster and was impressed. Another good option here in TX is Contact Concealment.

    I've got both and both are fitted for an x300U. If you find yourself running the gum without the light I find the Bravo has a bit more retention than the Raven. The Bravo uses the ejection port for retention where as Raven does not.

    That's nice to know about the ejection port, thanks!

    The current images on Bravo's website do not show an ejection port that retains the firearm. Personally I would avoid them if they did. I think all of the names mentioned in this thread thus far do not.

    I think I picked up that Bravo a year or so ago, maybe they changed the design. Out of curiosity why is ejection port retention a bad thing?

    Not necessarily bad but I have yet to see one that is molded in that does not cause issues with the slide going into battery.

    Oh yes, I did notice this when I did not have my WML mounted but I can't say that it was out of battery after the draw stroke. Either way thats a good point.
