Ky-tac holster

[n2299]

I have been looking for a "perfect" holster for my G17 for the past year. I have owned a Safariland's 560 CustomFit, BladeTech's straight drop, a "low end" Forbus paddle. Even Comp-Tac's excellent paddle wasn't the answer. For whatever reason none of them was quite the right fit for me.

I have read some rave review about Dave Elderton's Ky-Tac holsters. At the same time, there were a few posts about slow delivery.

I have to admit it was with some hesitancy that I gave Dave a call 3 weeks ago. He was most helpful on the phone in helping me decide the correct holster and mag pouch combo. We talk about delivery time. I told him I had a match in 5 weeks. He said he will get it to me in 4 weeks. He told me to give him a call after 3 weeks to check on the status of the order. Much to my surprise when I call after 20 days I was told the holster was sent 4 days earlier and amazingly it arrived the next day after my call. In case you were wondering why it took 5 days for the package to arrivee... it's because he had to send it from Okahoma to Canada. And he only charged me "actual shipping" instead of some inflated "International order surcharge".

Anyway, I have had a couple of days of dry firing and a range session with the KT-2. Dave was not kidding when he told me it's a "fast" holster.

The workmanship, fit and finish on the holster and mag pouches were excellent.

I know where I'll look the next time I need a kydex holster.

Dave made sure I had my Ky-Tac before my first Qualifier, also. Love-It!

I have two Bravehearts, a modified Sooper Hooper (I had Dave cut a slot out in the belt tunnel so I could 'capture' a belp loop with it), and 4 MP-1's. I'm a big fan, but I have a problem with breaking the clips on the Bravehearts and the MP-1's. I just sent some of the gear back to Dave to get repaired. He's great about fixing it, no questions asked, no hassle.

I love my KyTac gear, you just have to go easy on the clips.

I carry every day outside of the house with a BraveHeart and inside the house with a different BraveHeart! The light carrier on my belt is a Ky-Tac too. I have some other items, but they don't get used as much.

I think the BraveHeart is the best IWB holster made, especially if you consider only Kydex. The second best is the Comp-Tac Gurkha and you can see from the similarity to the BraveHeart (which predated it by years) why I like it. Imitation is a form of flattery!
