Thanks. Kind of a classic choice there.

Glad to see I'm not the only one who wants their pistol to be placed right where the stupid pant companies always put the belt loops

This picture illustrates why you want hard or soft loops, and not a clip for IWB holsters. One good tug and that holster is coming off the body.

Fully agree. Heck a speed bump could jar it loose! It doesn't want look secure at all and I think you're asking for trouble with that design.

Not a problem w/ the GALCO Stow-N-Go.

Actually, it's an Advantage.

Experts - You guys should listen to one.


The GALCO Stow-N-Go clip has a very aggressive belt hook on the underside.

It also has a 3/4" notch-out in it... to accept the belt loop. The holster also has rebates in the leather clip pad to accept these hooks, so that they dog into the trousers and under the belt.

This results in:
- The holster indexed over the belt loop so that it won't migrate around on the belt.
- Because the hooks straddle the belt loop, any lifting force is transferred directly to the belt loop.

You guys would crap your oneies and fail trying to get the holster off w/o first pushing down and then unhooking the clip.



The More You Know...

I have. A little while ago I took a class, it was very illuminating, to see how different holsters/carry set ups work when pressure tested. The instructor said he has never had a hybrid or clip on holster come through this 2 1/2 day course and not fail.

And instructors are never full o chit?! Haha, Take it all with a grain of salt, clips are fine if they are aggressive enough to stay put. I have some that I need to take the pants off and ask the wife's help with an extra hand to get the clip off my belt. No way will it ever come off unintentionally...

And the last class I was in that had a Crossbreed clip on holster came off the belt during the draw, and stay on the gun....

But that's not what you said.

In fact, all y'all said exactly this:

...Which is patently False.

Your argument is also so much hyperbole.

Do you have any data on this particular holster?
How about any personal experience w/ this particular holster?

I do.

Great holster.

Anyone have a recommendation for an IWB holster that has worked well for your G36? I have an Aliengear base and can always get a shell, but was looking to try either a leather (with reinforced mouth) or kydex holster of a more minimalist design. Maybe a single wide clip, etc. without the larger base of an AG or Crossbreed holster. Like to have adjustable cant, or an FBI cant if not adjustable.

Thanks in advance.

Bumped for you.

I use a CB Supertuck with my G36, and I like it a lot, but I know you said you wanted a more minimalist design - have you concidered the CB Freedom line of holsters? I haven't tried it, but it seems to be in line with what you're asking for.

It's a straight-draw pocket, but the clip is adjustable for cant.

That's a great holster I have a couple of them the other option would be to check Stealthgear there holsters are very nice. And the Stealthgear can be ordered with two clips as well.

I crap my onesies getting mine off ... damn #*@^% thing ... one handed.

I have to drop trou and fiddle w/ a stick to get the under hook past the belt.

I put some snow seal on the leather so it won't get greasy and it provides quite a bit of static friction that goes completely slick when I get it moving.

I have other plastic OWB and MOB holsters that I also like and the MOB DeSantis is my other favorite, but this one is my IWB choice.

I like how I can reholster one handed.

How is aliengear? They seem to be priced well and well reviewed.

For the price it's okay... however, spend little more and get either crossbreed or stealthgear holster.

[Garandimal]

If you wear a tee-shirt tucked underneath, the GALCO Stow-N-Go is extremely thin and comfortable. I have had no issues with the one I have for my GLOCK 36, after years of service. For the $26 I paid, it works fine and should last indefinitely. The Sig P938 holster is also very comfortable and secure.

I have one for a small .22 LR revolver that must be two decades old and is used for field carry. It gets a lot of sweat and humidity, and the occasional dunking, and is no worse the wear.
