    Not quick release... :frown: I desperately want a quick release option but currently my favorites are made by someone else and making something different for the sake of being different won't benefit anyone.

    Think for yourself. Question authority.

    Quick release is a good trait to have .... if done properly. Like you, I prefer the ones already on the market (and already mentioned) so I agree there's no sense in trying to re-invent the wheel.

    After thought .... quick release is sort of like modularity in my mind. It sounds great but the reality is once the novelty or newness wears off you are left with something that sounded better than it really is. Modularity sort of implies it will do it all. Most of us have found that anything that does it all doesn't usually do any one thing better than something that only does THE one thing. Follow that?

    Specifically, it's great to be able to setup the same holster eleventy billion ways. However, the reality is once you find the sweet spot you are likely to never change it thus negating the need for modularity. I have dupes of lots of things simply because I'm too lazy to swap between IWB vs OWB loops all the time based on my needs for the day.

    I'm contemplating the BMC ones, but I can't figure out what the difference is btw the standard clip or integrated loop.

    hey, did someone say kytex yet?

    Mine are great, ended up buying one opposite of my normal carry side so that I can flip it around and wear the mag inside the waistband

    Thanks Nick
    I've looked at the Fricke HMCs (online only) but that $40 price has me looking elsewhere first. I'd stay with the Galco leather HMC that I have been running for my XD, but it squeaks a bit. I know I'll have no such issues with a kydex pouch. Maybe I'll try one if my search doesn't turn up anything else.

    ETA: Feel like I could have something custom done for less than $40 but I'm just guessing at that.
    If you can't taste the sarcasm, try licking the screen.

    I really like CCC basic mag carriers. They are secure, streamlined and concealable. They don't take up any more space then they need to.

    I find that my Ready Tac pistol pouches tend to stick out, as in you can see some daylight between the pouch and the buckle. I use and like them for competition and training. Just wondering if the Kytex pistol pouches fit more flush against the body, thus aiding in concealment?

    The Kytex pouches definitely fit nice and flush to the body, they are awesome! They don't have the outward cant that the Ready Tac has.

    I'm pretty sure you'd have to get an IWB mag pouch to find one that hold's the mag tighter to the body than the Kytex.
