Aircooled6racer Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 Hello: For single stack mag holders the best one I've tried so far are the Safariland 771's. The 771's just seem to be smoother and can be adjusted for just the right tension. Thanks, Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Sierpina Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 USPSA allows a DOH in Production, but not Single Stack, a woman is allowed the DOH in Single Stack though. I don't see why you can't space out a Blade Tech, with out the drop portion. The Uncle Mikes gives a bit more space (which is why IDPA banned it) and it's inexpensive enough to try without breaking the bank. I have both the Blade Tech and Uncle Mikes for a 5" gun. I prefer the Uncle Mikes for Single Stack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
38superman Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 Trying to find the right holster for my 1911 is driving me crazy. I have a DOH which works very well but isn't legal. I have a Safariland that just doesn't release the gun cleanly. If your draw is slow it comes out smoothly but start to speed up and the holster begins to twist outward at the muzzle and the gun hangs. I have a Bladetech that has a molded indetion that recesses into the trigger guard for retention. It works, sort of. Again, nice slow perfect draw and the gun comes out. However, speed draw and your hand placement better be spot on perfect. Grip the gun the slightest bit low and the holster cants forward and the gun hangs. All the holsters have some adjustment for retention, but I can't seem to adjust the problem away. I could practice my draw til my arm is about to fall off and strive to be absolutely perfect. That is good advice to anyone, but I'd like to have a holster that is at lease a little bit forgiving. Maybe what I'm looking for just doesn't exist. A single stack holster that performs like a limited gun speed rig. Suggestions? Tls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve_P Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 What about a ready tactical USPSA model? It is slightly offset from the belt, but not dropped. Should be SS legal. I have their DOH for production and it is excellent. Mag carriers are nice too.... CPWSA.com sells them. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which was weird because I have one for my G35 Lim setup and I wouldn't trade it for the world. For ~$20 cheaper I had a local guy make me a holster and I can't imagine being happier. http://crown3x.com/index.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
38superman Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 (edited) I took the advice and ordered a Ready Tactical USPSA model. Although I don't have much experience with it yet, it seems promising. The gun comes out clean and quick. If I had a complaint, it would have to be the belt loop. The offset is made by widening the belt loop to the point that you could drive a truck through it. No big deal but the holster has a very loose fit on the CR Speed belt and slides quite freely. I put a piece of velcro on the inside that should anchor it very well. Don't get me wrong. The holster is awesome. It is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks guys.

That was the only problem i had with mine also, The velcro is a nice shim and now your holster will be in the same spot everytime. Once i found this holster i never looked back.

GunBugBit Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 For USPSA single stack, I'll start with a Blade Tech Sting Ray. S'posed to be legal. http://www.blade-tech.com/SRB-Sting-Ray-Belt-Holster-IDPA-Approved-pr-1022.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polizei1 Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 (edited) I just got my Blade-Tech SRB/DOH and it's awesome so far. Obviously haven't used it in a match yet, but so far it's smooth, adjustable, and great quality. If you order from Shooters Connection, it's also only $60. You might as well get the DOH and just take it off. That way you'll have it if you retire it for just range duty or whatever.

lawboy Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 I use this from AHolster. http://www.shop.aholster.com/product.sc;jsessionid=BAF35D31EA05FDDD57ACDB01932352B4.qscstrfrnt05?productId=3&categoryId=1 I cut the thumb safety guard off the left side and it is a great holster for gaming. Very secure, fact and tough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dwain C. Baer Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 Blade Tech is really good, and another really good holster is Ky-Tac. Although both holsters are similar, the Ky-Tac has a smoother release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike21STI Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 can't go wrong with Comp-tac holsters, i have them for all my game guns and even my carry ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GregJ Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 (edited) I have a Tucker Leather lined Silent Thunder holster, that is ok, but the draw is a little slow for USPA. I may use it just for IDPA CDP. I recently received a Blade-Tech Black Ice holster, that is a LOT quicker, and I really like this holster. The holster is made so that the gun can be angled forward in the draw before it completely clears the holster. My son has a Blade-Tech Sting Ray Belt holster for his, and the draw doesnt seem to be quite as quick with it. Both are great holsters.

RDunn Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 i run blade techs for 2 of my 3 guns and a cr speed for my 3rd. you can not beat the blade tech. i have put my holster thru the ringer and it still looks brand new. there is usually a few week wait for one of them to come in, but its totally worth it.
