JaeOne3345 Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 I bit the bullet and got myself a Race Master for Xmas. Man this thing is nice. Extremely secure. I might even run it for 3 gun (GASP). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rig Magician Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 Thanks for the replies from the lefties. The CR speed is not to bad but the safety laver is in between the holster and your body. It can be a pain to get to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mioduz Posted January 8, 2012 Author Share Posted January 8, 2012 I received both holsters and reviewed them. And as every one already said the daa is leaps and bounds above the ghost. I can now switch from limited to open in a matter of. Seconds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XRe Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 I've shot both - the Ghost was super quick, but very insecure when unlocked, and I could never seem to manipulate the lock quickly (I always managed to bind the lock lever up by pushing it in toward the holster body while I tried to pull it up). So, I went to the CR Speed from the Ghost. Had issues with that holster, too (like, it could cause an AD with my gun under the right conditions! ). Went to the DAA Race Master, and really like it a lot. It's very fast - as fast as the Ghost - and far more secure. Haven't run across a situation yet where I actually needed to start with the holster locked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frankie Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 I have used a cr speed it was ok. The DAA Racemaster with alum mag pouches is what I use now it's the best you can get. And yes I use it for three-gun with no problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JaeOne3345 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 I bit the bullet and got myself a Race Master for Xmas. Man this thing is nice. Extremely secure. I might even run it for 3 gun (GASP). Ok, two years later, I gotta update my opinion. I used the DAA for quite a bit, but ran into issues with it snagging at the wrong time. I tried all sorts of positions. Maybe it was just mine? I took the time to position it in a way that was most ergonomically efficient for myself. I ended up trying a Safariland 014. I LOOOOOVE this thing. It never snags no matter what. And it feels extremely solid with the muzzle end cup device. Keep the 014 in your list of possible choices. I still love my DAA pouches, but my nod goes to the 014 holster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still love my DAA pouches, but my nod goes to the 014 holster. That's my exact experience. I had one or two snags with the race master - that is one or two too many. I lost confidence in it. I transitioned to the Manny Bragg which was fantastic, apart from the slight side-to-side wiggle. It didn't help with consistency in a steel challenge match. I am now using the safariland 014 and loving it. Still using race master pouches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You sir are right, I have not tried every holster out there. I did say it's the best you can get...I should have said it's the best holster I have ever used and therefore the best I can get. Until this holster fails me I'm finished with my search for the perfect holster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RangerTrace Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 I started with a Ghost holster and then tried the DAA Racemaster for a few months a couple years ago. It certainly has less wiggle than the Ghost, but for me wasn't nearly as durable. I broke the plastic insert during a walk through/low port when my pistol got in a bind with my thigh. I had to use my Ghost for the rest of the match. DAA repaired the holster for free, but it never was the same and my pistol dropped out of the holster two more times before I went back to Ghost permanently.
