Default OWB Holster Question

The question is between a holster with built in belt loops or a clip on, single or double clip, type. I can see the clip being easier to get on and off but the loops being more secure. So what do you use?

First you need to consider the size and weight of the gun.

so what gun are you looking for a holster for?

It's really purpose and gun driven........................

When I conceal carry it is IWB 98% of the time with a Sparks Summer Special.

OWB hiking or riding a ATV in Penn's Woods...... a Bianchi 111 Cyclone cross draw is the holster of choice most of the time....... for years a Bianchi 5BHL thumb break was... and I guess still is...... a favorite.

I just received a custom leather OWB holster from D.M. Bullard for my SIG P938. It has belt loops. There is a photo of it and the gun in another thread in this forum.
