I’ve carried a Glock 19 (without a light) for the last couple of years in a Stealthgear OWB Ventcore holster. I love this holster and, when I decided to upgrade to a Glock with a red dot and light, I ordered another Stealthgear holster. One of the features of the Stealthgear Ventcore OWB holster is the quick-clips for the belt that makes the holster super-easy for me to put on and takeoff without having to contort my bad shoulder in weird and awkward positions while looping my belt through the belt-clips. It’s aLao nice to be able to remove the Glock and holster easily for quick trips into the post office, etc.
I could not be more disappointed with the new Stealthgear holster that arrived today. With the retention screw fully loosened I cannot pull my Glock out of this holster with one hand. It’s so tight there’s clearly an issue with their Kydex mold or the entire design. It also has wings made from a new material that they claim is better; It’s clearly cheaper and inferior to the old style clips. This holster is unusable and will be going back.
I ordered a JMCK OWB2 light bearing holster. I’m happy with JMCK holsters but would still like a holster as comfortable as the Stealthgear Ventcore OWB with the quick-clips if anyone knows of one?
PS - I’ll take suggestions for a belt too. I currently use a Kore Essentials Tactical model belt and it feels like a barrel-band around my waist. Maybe leather would be better material. With or without an inner-core?
