will fabus holster hold G17&G19?

[INMIline]

I am hoping to get a holster to hold both.

Pass on Fobus - thank me later!

You can get a Comptac Mtac with the Glock Slide Attachment and it will fit both....

Better yet - Raven Concealment's Phantom holster for the G17 may fit the G19 - I'll have to try it out when I get a minute.

The Fobus GL2 will fit both guns.

Yeah I was looking at the GL2. What's wrong with Fobus?

I hated the couple I had - there are many better options out there.

They are "cheap" in every sense of the word. The newer ones are better (thicker material and added tension adjustment screw), but still wear the finish, don't provide very good security, and stick out from the body more than I'd like.

Your best bet is to spend a little extra money and go with something made of actual kydex, rather than just injection-molded thermoplastic.

Comp-Tac, Raven Concealment, Sidearmor... all offer better holsters than Fobus.

The draw is hard as hell. It's what I have right now, though I'll be upgrading for sure. Yes, can fit 17 and 19

So do RM Holster Works, JSHolsters.com, and even Blade-Tech and Uncle Mike's...

I'm glad I posted. Thanks for the responces. I'll spend the extra.

I don't mind my Fobus paddle holster, but I like almost every holster that I've tried better..

I was using a fobus for a while until my Safarilands ALS showed up. I love my Safarilands holster. I went to draw my gun one day from the fobus and the holster pulled around my belt and I was holding a holstered gun in my hand. Not very comforting if it would have been a life or death situation.

Just depends on how you use your fobus. I use it as a range holster. Or for a BUG that hooks onto my car door. Things like that. I wouldn't use for a CC holster. My two cents.

I really, really like the ALS holsters, as well... unless I have to conceal the gun at all. They are well made and the security device is simple and intuitive, but they are large/bulky holsters definitely more intended for duty/off-duty than CCW. I've got both the high rise belt rig (6320) and the paddle (6378).

I kind of like my Fobus GL2, it's what I use when I open carry. I'm sure there are better, but for something to quickly slip on the hip, it does the trick. It's a decent cheapy to start with until you find what you like.

I do the exact same thing.
