Nimitz Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 I'm sure this question has been asked before so feel freee to just provide a link but I'm getting ready to try my hand at these competitions and need a recommendation for a holster & mag pouches? I already have a good belt (2") that I used to use when I worked part-time for a security firm but the duty holster & mag pouches I have are not suitable for USPSA or IDPA ...

The_Vigilante Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 You can try Blade Tech or CompTac for both holsters and mag pouches. You don't indicate what pistol you are shooting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OpenDot Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 No worries, i'm still a noob as well.. What Gun? USPSA.. DAA or Cr Speed Belt (get belt several sizes over your actual dress belt size) Cr Speed versa pouches Bladetech Holster just google everything about with whatever gun your going to compete with... (example Bladetech Glock 17) IDPA... no clue, don't shoot idpa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pigfish73 Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 BladeTech,CompTac,and DAA all make great Production holsters. I use a BladeTech holster and the CR Speed mag holders and belt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CDPMatt Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 www.cpwsa.com select "products" on the left and scroll to "Ready Tactical" Great stuff and Chris Patty @ CPWSA is awesome to deal with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leftridge Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 I use Blade-tech holster and Kytex Mag pouches. They are like the Ready tactical but a lot cheaper, they work very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polizei1 Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 (edited) I'm also in the same boat as you, kind of. Not to steal your thread, but I'm also looking for gear as I'm new to the sport. I like the look of the DAA pouches, but for me to use them (1911), I would have to buy the adjusters, at $8/ea extra. It looks like the CR Speed pouches come with them in the price already, which is awesome. Is there a distinct difference between them? Any reason to get one over the other? How is the retention adjustment, ease of use, etc. Same thing for the belts...any reason to order one or the other? I'm assuming I would be within the 2" rule? I'm also looking for holster. Thanks for starting this thread! Edited July 28, 2011 by polizei1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim/GA Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 (edited) Switched to Ready Tactical mag pouches and they are great. If shooting Production or Single Stack, you will most often run 5 mags on your belt and the other pouches just take up to much room. The Ready Tactical take up less room. I add velcro on the inside of the pouches to help hold on to the inner belt (CR speed belt). One thing on belts, remember that they must be secure at the waist. 5.2.3- ...The belt or the inner belt or both must be either securely fixed at the waist, or secured with a minimum of three belt loops. I did not remember the "either", anyone know how this is interpreted? Edited July 29, 2011 by Tim/GA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nimitz Posted July 29, 2011 Author Share Posted July 29, 2011 since the Comptech website says their holster won't currently work with Gen 4 Golck 34s I think I'll be going with the Blade-tech holster. I need to do a little more research for mag pouches though ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jordonhurd Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 I just started using CompTac mag holders for my Para. 2 matches so far and I am happy with them. Just using my basic COM 1911 holster for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Anderson Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 My Blade-tech production holster is faster than my CR Speed open holster, to whatever extent a holster can be fast. Blade Tech all the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polizei1 Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 I just got my order yesterday. I got a CR Speed Belt, CR Speed mag holders, and a Blade-Tech SRB. Just quickly practicing my dryfire/draws/reloads, this gear is simply awesome. Everything stayed put and everything is very good quality. Reloads are much faster and smoother, and the holster has great retention. The best part is, everything is adjustable to your individual retention liking. I'm shooting SSD and I got the spacers with the CR Speed mag holders, worthwhile IMO. Much easier than trying to mess with the original spacers.
