Okay, I don't know if this is the proper forum, but I thought I might get a good cross section of opinions here.
The Fobus holsters were recommended by several people, so I bought two today, one for my snub nose .38 and one for my P-95 (they were made for these specific gun models.) I understand that they operate on a different principle, they fit snug so the gun won't come out even though the holster doesn't have a strap. I read the instructions that came with the holster, but at this point in time, I hate how they work.
I sometimes have to pull on the .38 two or 3 times to get it out of the holster. I can't seem to get the P-95 out of the holster no matter how hard I pull on it. I know there's a learning curve associated with these things, but I can just see myself not being able to get the gun out of the holster when a bad guy has drawn his own gun.
Any suggestions? Do they loosen up over time? Any better alternatives? Thought I'd ask before I take them back to the store. THANKS.
