I hear rubbermaid makes a pretty good container for the Sigma... 30 gallon, with a hinged lid to keep the the smell to a minimum...

Go for a Fobus.

You looking for IWB, OWB? Leather, Kydex?

There are a ton of options out there.

Redneck1616 · May 12, 2009, 02:25 PM

I would prefer IWB

You can have one made up of leather, but most places who do quality work will have a nice wait time as well.

You could also go with a Kydex holster from Comp-Tac. They are nice holster and are easy to clean when they get dirty, sweaty.

I like leather personally.

www.ttgunleather.com makes nice stuff at a good price.

I carry mine in a Fobus HK1 OWB paddle. Mine is a VE model with light rail, but should be close to same size.

You got a nice dad, take him shooting.

My dad is the one who taught me how to shoot. He retired from the THP last year that was his duty gun before they switched to glocks.

I bought one of these:

Best of both worlds, leather and kydex. It looks a bit strange, but it is extremely comfortable and I really like it. I can wear it all day long with my Glock 26, or Glock 19, and pretty much forget that it's there.

I have the full moon. Nice product for a reasonable price.

For me, personally, leather is the only way to go for IWB. Kydex has many virtues, but comfort against skin and hipbones is not one of them.

For OWB, Kydex can be quite nice; I particularly like Serpa lock rigs.

Reminds me of the question at the supermarket - "paper or plastic?" This is a little easier. Plastic gun, plastic holster.
