Hello everyone I am new here so hope this is gettng posted in the correct spot? But here goes I am a little over 6ft and usually carry my Berretta 92on a holster on my belt. Here is the problem about 3 months ago I really started watching what I eat and excercising more, nothing major but I lost about 3 inches on my waist. So now I have several pair of pants that are really too big, but in very good condition. Someone that I know sugested that I switch to a tuckable holster. I really like the idea since I really dont care for the whol untucked shirt look, just my personal peference. But at any rate can any one suggest a good holster for the 92 that might be worth looking at? I know that it is a large semi auto and others have just told me that I need a to just carry a smaller firearm, but the 92 really fits my hands well, I am very proficient with it and I am used to it plus its affordable to practice with. so please let me know thanks
 
You will get a ton of comments on holsters :) and I'm sure all of them would be fine holsters ... My recommendation would be the N82 tuck able holster I currently use this particular holster fit finish wearability tuck ability comfort all at least 9 out of 10 to me also affordability ...BTW welcome to the Board / forum ;)
 
I also use the Crossbreed in fact I have one for S&W M&P 40 and One for S&W M&P Shield 40. Of all I've tried and have tried a few Crossbreed Super tuck IWB is my go to choice everyday.
 
I would also recommend the Crossbreed. They actually say that you may need to buy larger pants when wearing it along with an IWB mag holder.
 
Leather lined kydex is the way I would go. Garrett holsters or Tucker Gunleather are both great with a slight edge towards Tucker (he's more expensive tho).
You get the retention and hardness benefits of kydex with a finish protecting leather lining. These options aren't cheap but the quality & design is amazing.
Crossbreed is good for the cost. The advantage of the Crossbreed is that it is so thin but the quality doesn't compare to Garrett or Tucker.
 
Blackhawk or cheaper fobus will slip in owb holster and the belt is just necessary to hold your pants up then. Amazon you can get a fobus and 5.11 tactical belt for $35 total. I recommend the 5.11 tactical belt ($11)
 
I would recommend the IWB made by Theis Holsters. Same design and comfort level as Crossbreed. $55 for cowhide or $65 for horsehide shipping included. Besides, Theis Holsters is a mom & pop type shop. Always use them when I can.
 
My carry rig is DeSantis and I also have a concealed carry rig that is made by Blackhawk. I do not prefer IWB carry. DeSantis is real good equipment, retention and safety and leather quality is all high. The price typically is good for the item you are buying.
 
I have a White Hat holster that's similar to the Crossbreed holsters. I wear it daily (only comes off my pants when I wash them) and it's very comfortable. Had to go up a pant size since it's IWB. Since you have three inches to account for, I'd suggest a Crossbreed or similar tuckable holster on one side, and a tuckable spare magazine carrier on the other.
 
I comfortably carry an XD 9 with a Crossbreed IWB. Love it. Same here-I lost ten pounds and suddenly had room for an IWB. If you hate the look of the Crossbreed, order it in black. Also consider the "Combat Cut" option.
 
I like Kholster, almost half of what a Crossbreed costs, you get it in half the time and very comfortable. I'll also second the N82 Tactical. But with a 92, you really want to stick with a 2 clip holster for weight distribution.

Galco also has a tuckable. It basically the same design as the Crossbreed. I have them both for large frames (1911 5" and H&K 45 and P30).

I've also had good luck with the IWB holsters designed similar to the Milt Sparks "Summer Special" ... it's not tuckable but works well with over-the-belt shirts, jackets, etc.
