    For the money a fobus is hard to beat. Not the best mind you, but they are functional and comfortable. Go ahead and buy one.

    I have one for my Glock 17. Works like a charm.

    Some people don't like them because the retention method is passive. Basically, you just have to give your gun a quick jerk in the right direction to get it out. There isn't really a "slow and quiet" draw to it. I don't mind it, though; when the SHTF, I won't be able to perform any fine motor skills anyway.

    It has a tension screw on it, though, so you can adjust the retention. I carry with mine all the time.

    I actually wear mine with jeans and a floppy canvas belt thats only an inch and a quarter wide. I've never had a problem with it that way.

    I am built like a toothpick, though, so it might make a difference. Having that paddle pulled up tight against my thigh bone might make for a more secure hold than some people who have a little more meat on them. I could see that if I was built like an actual person and not a stick figure, I might want a thicker, sturdier belt.

    I have had many and have had the evolution paddle holster for the Ruger LCP, good adjustment and good fit.

    All three of the local shops around Seymour stock Fobus holsters. They are not hard to find locally.

    I personally think there are better options for "cheap" holsters than Fobus-- like the Uncle Mike's LE line.

    But admittedly just about everyone has a Fobus somewhere in their "shoebox o' holsters".
