Jan R. Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 What holster/mag pouch is the best set up for single stack? Thanks Jan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yachtmaster Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 Not sure there is a "best" as the choices are many and are very personal involving lots of factors including cost. There is a two page thread dealing with various choices that others have made under "single stack gear" if I recall correctly. Here is what I have been very happy with: DAA belt DAA PDR Holster DAA Racer Mag pouches Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan R. Posted February 1, 2013 Author Share Posted February 1, 2013 Thanks very much for the reply. I searched and didn't find that post. I'll check again. That DAA holster looks nice. Jan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve L Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 I like the BladeTech stingray no DOH works well for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polizei1 Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 Blade-Tech SRB (DOH but removed), with CR Speed belt/pouches. I absolutely love this setup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray S Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 Another one that has the Bladetech stinger. I use Safariland 773 pouches but if I had it to do over I'd go ready tactical. Also the ghost stinger says it is legal but definitely is not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helimech Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 I am using a CompTac Belt Holster http://www.comp-tac.com/product_info.php?products_id=66 and my son is using one of their Belt Feed mag pouches http://www.comp-tac.com/product_info.php?products_id=33 . I have been nothing but pleased with their products. Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

diehli Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 I believe that it doesn't hold the frontstrap over the top of the belt, as required by App. D5, item 20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jammer1911 Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 Race Holsters are not legal in SS and unless your a female niether is a DOH. I am using DAA Belt DAA PDR Holster DAA Racer Mag Pouches Excellent set=up. That being said I had been using the Safariland 5187 Holster, 773 pouches and the DAA Belt. Also works good but with my ummm larger middle I needed something that moves the pouches and holster out abit. JMHO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray S Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 I believe that it doesn't hold the frontstrap over the top of the belt, as required by App. D5, item 20. There's the answer. I had one and the front strap would go no higher than mid way on the belt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lumpygravy Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 I have the PDR and the BT. Both are great holsters but I'm digging the BT because I don;t have to keep spraying it like the PDR with silicone. The PDR is suede lined and can get sticky if I don't spray it regularly. Without any maintenance, the BT is near frictionless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan R. Posted February 2, 2013 Author Share Posted February 2, 2013 Do the Kydex type holsters mar the finish on the gun at all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polizei1 Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 Depending on the finish, yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yachtmaster Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 Janr, hopefully this is the link to the single stack gear discussion: http://www.brianenos.com/forums/index.php?/topic/160329-Single-Stack-Gear I like the my PDR holster as it is lined on the inside and doesn't mar the finish on my pistols.

Yachtmaster Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 Janr, I see someone has mentioned that they have to spray the interior of their PDR with silicone. I have never had to do this. Perhaps it is a little grabby at first but after a session or two mine is slick as ice. There are two very easily adjustable tension screws. I have also heated mine up to fit my Sig non traditional 1911s. A little grabby at first but again by my first or second dry fire practice slick as ice. Looking at the inside of the holster it appears the lining wears smooth at the pressure points. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve L Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 mine eats the finish but I dry fire a ton and at the end of the day it is just a tool anyway. Than again I do gun finishing in house so I giver it a face lift before each major. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you're telling me I need to dry fire regularly . The silicone spray was recommended by Saul/DAA and it does work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also it doesn't take much so a small tub will last a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, for me, it's really a first world problem . . Honestly it isn't difficult or hard to do. Like I tell myself "I don't have to like it, I just have to do it."

Jaxshooter Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 I have a Hellwig Kydex holster for my 1911s that is suede lined and does not hurt the finish on my guns. Brownells use to stock them but that model is not listed with the Hellwig holsters in the current catalog. They may be able to special order one if you can't find one elsewhere. They use to come with two different belt hangers also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a matt Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 CompTac are great but, they hold the gun and mags very very close to the body. Great for concealment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan R. Posted February 5, 2013 Author Share Posted February 5, 2013 You guys are the best! Thanks for all the great input. I just ordered the DAA PDR and five of the DAA SS mag pouches. I've always had great results with DAA products. Thanks again, Jan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
