OWB for Glock 26

[blues]

My vintage 1988 Glock holster won't work with Trijicon HDs. I don't know if they changed the design in later years.

BladeTech Biothane 1.5” belt and Glock Sport Combat Holster is my usual work-at-home setup. I try other things and keep comign back to it. They are a little tight at the outset and you have to replace them after a good while, as they eventually loosen up a bit. Bright side is that they are stupid cheap.

You can also use some pegboard offsets and screws to put used Glock Sport Combat holsters in handy positions under things...like tables with lips. They don’t go to waste.

For AIWB I swap to the Graith and a JMCK 2.5

Thanks for the responses.

While I like retention for my duty holster, I'm not sure I want it on my CCW holster. The only retention I would use is ALS, as that's what I use at work. Safariland makes the best duty holster one can find, but I have not found their OWB holster to conceal all that great for me. Maybe I chose the wrong holster, or maybe I am doing it wrong.


I am ordering a Glock Sport/Combat holster and a Glock mag pouch. In the future I may try a JM Custom Kydex OWB 2.


When I OWB carry, I wear a under shirt and a button up shirt.

The Glock sport combat holster is my most used Glock holster. Set up properly, it works very well. Ditto the Glock mag pouch as well.

What do you mean by "set up properly"?

I've ordered one just now.

Unless you use a skinny belt, the tabs inside the belt loops must be cut out for a wider belt.
I cut them in such a manner to get a forward cant when the holster is on the belt. Makes concealing the G17/22 and 19/23 size guns a bit easier for me.

I don’t think that the dimensions have changed. My G26 with Ameriglo I-dots hangs on the front sight ever so slightly when drawing. My G19 with the same sights does not. Weird.

Which loop did you try on your ALS rig for concealment? I’m finding the newer 565BL belt loop conceals better than the usual triangular 567BL.

I too agree the Glock sport combat holster is the best bang for the buck. Used mine alot over the years. Highly underrated. Actually conceals very well.

BladeTech total eclipse is the other one I use alot, for OWB.

Yeah, I was kind of surprised (and disappointed) when I found that none of my Glocks would fit any longer. I've had that holster for about 30 years.
