Vega Holster Hybrid IWB Holster for Concealed Carry - Gun Holster for Right or Left-Handed - IWB/OWB - Compatible Glock 9mm Pistols for Glock 43 Holster, Glock 19, Glock 17 - Optic Ready

I ordered this for a PSA Dagger compact, unsure of compatibility.My piece didn't fit in this holster at all. It's slightly dimensionally different than a G19.My G19, however fit perfectly.I already have a high quality holster for my G19 though, so this one will probably end up in my "holster drawer" in case I get another one or a buddy needs one down the road.Excellent quality, fit and finish.Highly recommended.

I’m comparing this to another variable carry holster I have that sells for a little more but is similarly designed (see photos…the new one is on the left with all inclusions and the one I already have is on the right). The first thing I noticed is that it includes the paddle (which goes inside the waistband) and it’s already mounted (I had to purchase the paddle separately for the first one). The next thing I noticed is that there are no instructions of any kind (the back of the packaging only includes a list of standard, common sense warnings and use limitations). Then I noticed that the other included hardware consists only of a belt/waistband clip for carrying the weapon inside the waist band (which I never do because it’s both uncomfortable and dangerous) one screw (the male ended side), the appropriate sized hex key for adjustments/changes, and what I’m guessing is a spacer of some kind for the belt clip (not really sure since there are no instructions and this item isn’t mentioned or shown anywhere on the product page). Since I tend to go with a secured pocket carry when I open carry (which is rare, with the entire paddle and holstered weapon inside my right work pants pocket and the belt clip secured to the outside edge of the pocket to keep the holster from slipping out), I’ll need additional hardware to use this holster as I intend (and as the one I already have is currently used). Another consideration is that the paddle this comes with, while it features a wide range of angle adjustments, isn’t very ergonomically designed…the one I already had has a nice curved design to match the curvature of the inside of the waistline and/or hip or leg but this one is pretty flat and bulky (again, see photos). The final (and most important) difference between the two is the fit and draw of the actual weapon…this one, even after tension adjustments and over two dozen pulls to loosen it up, is nowhere close to the balance of a secure fit and ease of draw that my first one had right out of the package. There’s a nice snap into place that my first one has but this one is more of a frictional rub into place (no matter how I adjust the tension). The draw is equally friction-based instead of a clean snap pull like my other one (for reference, I hold my right thumb down on the paddle as I pull the weapon with my fingers…I’m not just pulling only on the weapon, which would be dumb and dangerous anyway). Overall, this is a pretty good quality holster that allows for a variety of carrying styles but, depending on how (and what) exactly you carry, you may have to add some hardware for it to really be of use. It’s also not the best fit/pull for the Glock 43 version I got but some of their other holster models may perform a little better. For the price it’s a solid four stars.

Grabbed this because I know my Shadow MR920 could fit and it works like a charm.

the 2 main things you want out of a holster in my opinion is safety and retention. They kind of go hand in hand. This holster will provide both but that's about it. It's well made, using injection molding or hard plastic vs Kydex like the majority of holsters today is kind of cool. With that said the belt clips or belt systems that this holster has is poor. Unless you chinch your belt down really tight there is a lot of give and play with the holster, not the gun but when the holster is clipped to your belt. The OWB system is clunky at best. And I don't recommend using it that way. IWB for this holster is best but as mentioned in the title there are better options then this. It's well made but not very functional.

I ordered this OWB holster for use with both my both my Gen-3 G-17 and Gen-4 G-19, and both fit in the 17/22 holster with decent retention. There is a hex screw on the front that can be adjusted to get better retention and less wiggle, although my holster came with it fully tightened and I had to loosen it a bit to be able to more easily release my pistols from the holster.It also came with a belt clip that is for IWB use, but no instructions were included with the holster, and it took me a while to understand how to install it, although I will be using this holster exclusively for OWB use.The polymer plastic that this holster is made from is not Kydex, but a cheaper more flexible plastic. It is ok, but not nearly as nice and stiff as Kydex. So that this review does not get flagged, I will not be posting any pictures of the holster with a handgun inserted in the holster.I have other Vega holsters, particularly magazine and tourniquet holsters and have been happy with the other items I have received from them, so I knew this would be a decent holster. It does not disappoint but it is a bit pricey compared to those that are made from Kydex.I appreciate that the cant on the OWB holster is adjustable, as I prefer a 15-degree FBI cant. However, it is not nearly as easy to adjust as any other holster that I have. You must remove two screws and then reset it where you want and then reinsert the screws, and the angle you can choose is limited by where the holes are drilled. On my other holsters you have more finite adjustments that can be made by just loosening a screw a little bit and swiveling the belt clip to where you want it and re-tightening the screw.The OWB feed through belt harness comes set for a 1.5-inch belt, and if you remove the plastic bar it will accommodate up to a 2.25-inch belt. The IWB clip will only accommodate belts up to 2-inches wide.Despite my minor gripes, this is a decent holster that works well enough with good retention that is comfortable. At around forty-five dollars dollars it is a bit pricey and could be a bit more feature rich with easier angled canting options and made from Kydex.

I really wanted to like this holster, but my gun won't even come close to fitting in it. I ordered it to fit a Glock 19 and that's what the packaging says, but my Glock 19 absolutely will not come close to fitting in it. The holster is also made out of plastic instead of kydex so it's a bit thicker than my other kydex holsters, but since my gun won't fit in it, I can't even really make a good determination about how the holster rides, comfort, etc. Pretty disappointing.
