Before Buying Kydex Concealed Carry Holsters

By Robert Campbell


At this present moment in time you are on this article since you just purchased a firearm. You need to buy some quality accessories for it and you have been recommended any one of kydex concealed carry holsters as a possible choice. This seems to be a good idea for you but you need to find out more information first. So do read on and finish this article and try to pick up a tip or two so you can have an easier time about it.

It is a very good idea at this point to prepare some kind of checklist, whether written down or mentally remembered to help you. It will help you keep track of things you need to consider, and remind you of things that you may have missed. When trying to make an informed decision, always use a checklist.

Do put into your mind that kydex is not the name of any specific brand whatsoever but the make of a special kind of material. It is thermoplastic so it can withstand high temperatures and pressures despite its light weight. It is a also highly moldable akin to fiberglass, but hundreds of times more durable.

A primary thing to consider in any holster model you may take a gander to are its retention capabilities. A good holster will be able to keep the weapon in the saddle despite sudden and jerky movements, even like running or even jumping. Always put a primer on safety.

Comfort is definitely a good consideration to keep in mind also. You will want a holster that you can carry the whole day and not even be aware of. Stay away from holsters that are not comfortable to wear or feels like a fifth toe on your body. This is important as it is a long term purchase, and you will not be changing holsters everyday as you would daily with you shirt or something.

Another consideration which you should take as part of your decision checklist is ride and cant. The ride and cant of the holster must be adjustable. Ride basically means how high or deep it sits in the saddle whilst cant means the angle by which it rests inside the saddle while you carry it. Both must be adjustable not only for practical purposes, but additional comfort as well.

Always go for a holster that is specifically mad for the given model that you own. In this way you will have no underlying issues with retention at all. Getting a general fit holster may be cheaper, but probably more unsafe as well. Do spend a bit more money on a brand specific model, for you must always put a premium on safety, that of yourself and others.

To assist you even further in making your purchase a good one, it might not be a bad idea to ask around from other gun owners who may have kydex holsters. If you cannot get a hold of such people, then do go online and look for forums regarding the topic at hand. Law enforcement forums are also a good source of important information regarding the topic.
