Blameless...
I've seen this holster; besides its leather not wearing out, what are its strong point/weak points. I've been looking at the Kramer and I've been looking at the Galco CCP Concealed Carry Paddle (
Galco holsters; Holsters; Gun holster, pistol holsters, western holsters, shoulder holsters, leather holster and Glock holsters) which allows you to adjust cant. I'm needing persuasion one way or the other to decide. I like that Kramer has an extra snap closure over the belt to keep the holster from coming off your pants (in case of a struggle), but I really like the adjustable cants from the Galco.
What I really need is to see both in person, but unfortunately no one carries both... heck, most places don't carry either. Any help you can give Blameless would be great.
Hey wolf, I don't own either of those makers/models, but I do own an Aker Flatsider, and I would give my left nut to be able to reduce the angle of cant with that thing. I think I got it slightly used for like $40 bucks or thereabouts, and it currently sells for between $65 - $75, but I'd gladly pay the ~$120 for that adjustable cant Galco if they made one for either of my EDC weapons, which they don't. :sad:
I can't overstate how much I would prefer an adjustable cant. You may set it and forget it, and never adjust it again after finding your sweet spot, but you get one with a cant that you can't carry comfortably with, and it's gonna sit in the been-there-done-that drawer till the end of time. Well, or until you sell it, which I might do with my Aker here shortly.
Anyway, that's my .40¢ worth.
As to the OP, I'm 6'-6" and go about 255 - 260. I wear a couple or three different styles of holsters on a regular basis. One is a snap-loop OWB belt holster, a Bianchi Snap-Lok for my full size .45, and the other a High Noon Holsters synthetic "leather" holster for my CZ 2075 RAMI that I just looked at their site to link to for you, but which it appears they don't make anymore. They do still make the leather model though. You can
see that here if you'd like.
I wear a Crossbreed Super-Tuck most often with my RAMI. I could tolerate one for my .45, but have just never gotten around to ordering one. There are a lot of copy-cats of the Crossbreed out there nowadays, and you can get some of them for around half the price. Just search on "Hybrid Holster" and most of them will come up.
I also wear a shirt holster, which is the most comfortable by far, is accessible even in a car or when seated anywhere else, and the one I use is ambidextrous, has Velcro holsters, mag carriers and accessory pouches, and buying the shirt, a holster and a pouch/mag carrier won't set you back more than about $40 bucks. The one I use is called a
Link Removed but there are several out there with more or less the same design. A lightweight button-down shirt for cover garment gives all the concealment you'll ever need. The only negative is that it's a cross-draw platform, and a lot of folks don't like them because you have to sweep the muzzle a minimum of 45° from your side to out in front of you when you draw. If you're comfortable and confident with your firearms handling practices though, it's a very good, reliable and inexpensive option.
