Glock 19 Retention Holster

**prepare** · 08-08-20, 09:23

Looking for a G19 Retention Holster that will work with this war belt: https://www.highspeedgear.com/hsgi/33DG0-33DG0.html

I want to mount the holster directly to the belt. No drop leg stuff.

Also want it fairly snug to the belt/body.

Thanks!

Safariland ALS, 637X. Fast and secure with a myriad of available mounting options. The real question is "which mounting system for this belt". Will you run a 1.75" or 1.5" inner belt? Either way, there is a Safariland belt loop (UBL) for it, you just have to decide low, mid, or high ride.

If you need a duty retention holster instead of a secure open carry solution, the 637X series is not for you.

The High Speed Gear Belt is a Battle Belt so a duty or tactical holster is what I'm looking for.

Safariland 636X or 736X are level III retention holsters, same availability of mounting solutions.

Ditto on the Safariland options. Are you going to be wearing body armor? They make mid length and low ride holster options. I’m not a huge drop rig fan but I do like the low ride holster option. I run the low ride version with a strap to keep it tight to my leg. Works well.

That doesn't really answer the question. I think the point is, are you looking for a holster where the retention is used primarily to keep the gun locked in the holster during movement, or is the retention also going to be needed to prevent against gun grabs? Military holsters are often the former, LE holster generally the latter. The more retention devices on the holster, generally the more secure it will be, and also the slower the draw.

Safariland ALS is the gold standard.

Retention primarily for movement. I really don't want a low ride holster with a strap and prefer a snug, direct attachment to the battle belt.
