KT-Mech LLC Gunfighter, great OWB holster!

I am impressed with Alien Gear , I have one for my Glock 43x and they are very versatile .

I have been impressed with Wright Leatherworks. A solid, well made leather OWB holster that keeps my Glock close and tight to my body. In the summer I will wear a lightweight cover shirt and this holster does the job. Very comfortable as well.

Spend $15 and buy a Glock Sport/Combat holster. Won't hold moisture, sits high and tight, covers the trigger, basically does everything a $50+ holster does for much less.

I like my alien gear and safariland retention.

I carry a G26 OWB all summer long under a T shirt or flat bottom button down shirt and after trying an awful lot of holsters ( I have a box full now.) I've decided that the TT Gun Leather OWB pancake holster is the most comfortable and easiest to conceal I've found. A good gun belt like the Beltman or similar is a must with OWB holsters.

I have 4 of these, and this model is my 2nd favorite OWB holster of all time, 2nd to the now extinct Comp-Tac Gladiator. I despise and refuse to thread a belt through loops. I have used them mountain biking, with hard crashes happening, and nothing went wrong with my holster or gun. Never accidentally came off of my belt, and they are very secure. The gun is held fairly high and tight, install/removal is very fast and easy, and design/quality and customer service are top notch. They are offered in various configurations, like with/without sweat guard, etc.

I’d be surprised if that came off with dual under-hooks on each belt clip.

Another vote for the Vedder OWB

Bravo makes good stuff.

I’ve been using a Galco Concealable with my G26 for the past 6 years. I want to try the Wright Leatherworks Predator pancake holster. I use a Comp Tac Warrior Kydex for my G19 but I don’t see one on their website for the 26.

I have several. They’re very good holsters. I think you’ll like them.

My current OWB for my 17 is a Safariland 6378 ALS.

The highest & tightest G26 (and other models) holster I remember many of my coworkers bought back as far as 1999 was the Bianchi "Black Widow". Did a search, just now, and it's still on the market, although a bit more expensive than I remember.

I think it'd be referred to as a 'belt slide' with 'thumb break or snap'.
Good luck on your search, decision, and purchase.

Now, for an OWB G26 holster, I'm more likely using a Safariland like this one:

Galco FLETCH or SILHOUETTE.

Any quality Kydex holster is a good choice. Height is adjustable, there is a bit of retention, and presentations are quick. For leather, I like the El Paso Saddlery Street Combat. It’s a lined, open-topped pancake offering that has okay retention, is safer for re-holstering, and has a shape-hugging profile. EPS also offers custom stamping/carving on their leather products. There is a bit of a wait, as their stuff is generally made to order. Prices are reasonable as long as you don’t go crazy with extras.

Mitch Rosen UPL-EXP. High and tight. I use a sharp knife to extend belt slots to 1 3/4".

I am a big fan of the JM4 Tactical Relic; especially the Lonestar.

 

[DaveD]

I'm a big fan of Garrett holsters. Leather lined Kydex. Very thin.
