For OWB Galco Cop
For driving vehicle Ross
For IWB Galco NSA
For OWB concealed EPS #88, or
Aker Yaqui slide
I agree with what you said about your armorer. When you need your
gun you need grab it, pull it, point it, and shoot QUICK!
What holster does he use? Is that what you recommend if someone
chooses to carry the Glock?
Thank you.

In the context of excellence in design, all of your examples are very well done. Especially the Galco, which I created (bearing in mind that it follows on from the relatively crude but seminal design of Baker's pancakes.) However, one should avoid the styles that place a strap where the web of the hand would grasp the pistol, because it interferes with a complete, initial grasp. Several layers to that which I won't go into now.
In the context of this thread, none of them can overcome the weakness in the Glock action, so I wouldn't choose any of them including my 1990s pancake there :-)
Seeing Aker's version of the slide, which I recall they didnt originate, I am in the midst of finalizing one of my own that is a step or two beyond that approach.
