cperazza Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Looking for thoughts and recommendations on best P320 XSeries/X5 Legion Competition Holster. - DAA Alpha-X Holster - Comp-Tac Holster - Blade-Tech Holster - Any other? Currently using the DAA Alpha-X Holster with my Limited. No issues. Borrowed a Comp-Tac Holster, used it a couple times seems to work pretty good. Thanks for your help in advance!

j1b Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 I use the Double Alpha ... it's fine. To me they are all kind of similar. I'm not sure you can go wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B585 Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 I have all my of the ones listed except DAA and GX is my choice hands down. To me, being able to lock your gun in during a walk-through you’re not having to hold it in place with one hand it was a complete game changer.

echotango Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 The DAA would not go low enough for me and the hanger dug into me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can design your own holster colors (inside and out) and what hanger you prefer. A bit of a lead time as they are super busy. BC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terrydoc Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 (edited) What is it you guys do during a walkthrough that you require to lock down a gun into a bucket holster? Having said that I have Comptac, DAA Alpha X, and currently use a 4 Bros holster for my X5. All of them work fine and to be honest I don't really have a preference over any of them, just what I feel like using on the day..

I don’t see any reason to during a walk through though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
echotango Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 I don't see a reason ever. Maybe in 3 gun. Not like I'm hanging upside down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terrydoc Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 I've been shooting and RO'ing IPSC for nearly 20 years now including WS's and Regional and National Championship's and I can honestly say I've never seen a gun come out of a kydex type holster, a few out of the different race holster's, mostly due to either user error or people clashing holsters when wandering around, which in the end is user error anyway.

Aircooled6racer Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 Hello: I am using a Safariland and another one that I reshaped to fit the Sig. Just make sure you can adjust it to fit you. You can use spacers and different hangers to get the fit just right. Thanks, Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me it's less about the walkthrough and more about assisting with resetting the stage - especially bending to reset poppers or picking up plates, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich406 Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 Most bucket style kydex holsters like GX or RHT, the gun will bounce out if you have to run any faster than a slow jog. They just don’t have very good retention compared to say, bladetech Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of them work fine and to be honest I don't really have a preference over any of them, just what I feel like using on the day.. Sometimes I like to come in to a position at speed, sometimes decelerating to decide where to start slowing down, sometimes to do a drop step vs regular exit, and list could go on. Before GX, I held my gun in place a lot. YMMV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only time I take mine off is when I am told to make ready.... just like when you use a race holster in Limited or Open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have one and it's nice - fits the Legion with the aftermarket thumbrest. The GX appeals to me though and I'm going to try it and likely sell the RHT.

FlightMurse Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 I have a red river tactical (not to be confused with red hill tactical) advanced cut holster for my legion and I really love the holster. Build quality is on par with anything I have owned before, and black multicam looks sweet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could bounce around like a bunny rabbit (ok I'm too old to bounce) and my gun stays secure. Edited January 18, 2021 by ddc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
