Recluse Holster

howardsrock · Mar 8, 2011

I'm thinking about getting a Recluse Holster for my BG380. Does anyone on here have one of those holsters? If so, your thoughts?

I have tried a couple of other pocket holsters, and they both print badly. So, I'm looking for something that doesn't print and is easy to use.

Thanks!

I don't think I would want anything that was in the trigger guard.

I can see how it is supposed to work, but when the stuff hits the fan, "supposed to" can get you killed.

Having been in more than one fast draw scenario, I don't want anything involved other than pulling that gun straight out and quick.

It may be OK, but I would sure want to try one before buying it.

You might want to take a look at Robert Mika's pocket holsters. Simplest thing around. It is a bit bulky for the first few days, but then it conforms to the gun and to your leg and disappears. No gimmicks,

I would get a Recluse holster one but I go out a lot...

I am not a fan of pocket holsters, instead carrying it naked. I've never had any luck with them and they have never been comfortable. To hide the Kel Tec (which is almost always in my right rear pocket) I simply put it in the pocket behind a handkerchief. Works for me.

With any holster, you are adding bulk and, therefore, bulge. If you carry your wallet in a back pocket, the holster will make it seem as if you have two wallets and that's kind of a give-away, eh?

Thanks Iggy, I share your concerns about the design.

Sipowicz, now that was funny.

J.P. 60, I haven't thought about a handkerchief before, that may be the solution I need.

Thanks!

With so many phones, ipods and such today, I doubt anyone would give a second bulge a look...

That depends on the "bulge" and where it's located
