Default 9EZ PC AIWB Holster Recs Needed- barrel burns not fun

The barrel on the PC model is a smidge longer than the regular EZ 9 and finding an AIWB kydex holster has proved impossible. I've tried one for the regular EZ from We The People and one from Tulster (supporting local) and they've both led to getting burned on the upper inside of my thigh because that barrel is a hair longer. A LEO in my ACP I training wrapped the end of it in heat wrap and duct tape to get me through the 16 hour course but the burn was so tender I had to switch to wearing the holster outside my belt on the hip. Not very conducive to concealment when my clothes are more fitted. Obviously I want to train on my draw the way I intend to carry. Recs?

Check Muddy River Tactical. You can call the owner and ask to mold your holster to PC barrel. The holster I've bought form this company has very small opening at the muzzle end and with heat gun it can be closed completely (kydex can be easily re-molded at home using hot air).

I could not find the right holster for my daughters EZ9 . I think that more companies will soon start making them for that Model.
Glad to have you on the Forum, it's a good one. Maybe you can help us keep the duck hunting lawyer from the N.O. area in check.
When you said small hands it made me wonder if you had tried the Sig P365, small but fits my hand good and ten plus one rounds. Easy to carry and hide. It was a little hard to rack at first but got much easier. My daughter is has her eye on it but she will have to wait until they close the lid on me.

JM Custom Kydex makes very good holsters, but they are not cheap. His AIWB holsters are as long as possible to stabilize them better. Short holsters tend to tip out.

He has a specific model for the EZ9 and I’ll bet it’s longer than most others. Give him a call to discuss your issues and he will recommend and make the right holster for you.

WELCOME to the forum!
I have a Vedder (LightTuck) kydex holster for my 9mm EZ. I carry AIWB.
Give them a call. They also have a request form on their site for any
Gun not listed. I spent a good year searching for the best holster in
Kydex that was the smallest in width, angle/height adjustment, etc. for appendix carry. JMO
Get a holster with the claw (with Vedder you will get a shorter screw with the holster in case you remove the claw).
