Before You Go And Buy A Kydex Concealment Holster

By Helen Patterson


You probably just got your new firearm and your concealed carry license and just dying to take out your new firearm with you. For this you will definitely need a holster of some sort. A few of your friends have suggested that you get a Kydex concealment holster. Before you do go out and buy one, do read on in this article of what is the best for you.

Kydex is basically the name of the thermoplastic compound. It is now general y used for holster applications as against leather, as it is a bit more durable and lighter as well. Compared to fiberglass, which other holsters are also made out of, it is more flexible and tougher as well. Regardless of what it is going to be made out of, there are some key items you need to look for in a good one.

A major key factor to a good holster is retention. One should always keep your gun in place all the time despite any sudden actions or movements that you do such as running or jumping for example. A good one has good retention capabilities.

Two key items are also important in carry holsters, which is the cant and the riding height. The cant is the angle by which the gun will be sitting inside while it is carried, and it will affect how fast one can draw the weapon. The riding height means how high the gun can be carried while it is in the carriage. Both of these characteristics should be adjustable in the one you have in mind.

Getting a molded one should be much more practical than buying just a general fit one. A molded one is much safer for it will prevent accidental firing as caused by non molded ones, especially if one is fond of carrying loaded chambers. Molded ones can easily be found made out of Kydex and available for a wide range of handgun models.

Comfort is also key to having a concealment holster. In fact, the more comfortable it is the likelier you are to carry it on a regular basis. One that is comfortable for one person is not always comfortable for another. Do not buy one for looks alone or basic functionality, do buy one also for comfort. With all the different ones out there you will get one sooner or later, all you need to do is to keep looking.

Consider carefully also quality and craftsmanship of the thing that you will buy. These are very important attributes in terms of buying something as it will ensure that it will last and not break at the most inopportune moment. Get something that will last and something that you can actually pass down to the next generation.

And lastly perhaps it is to get a customized one altogether that is made according to your needs. Definitely a custom made one may be on the expensive side but it will answer all the attributes that you want to have in a good and decent concealment holster.
