For the ones that carry one of these how do you carry ? IWB/OWB? and what is your carry rig? Thanks
 
I don't have a 19/23. Someday I will! I sometimes carry a glock 17 in a PJ holster. Great holster. I've tried a few and I really like this one.

- It completely protects and covers the trigger.
- The gun "clicks" into place, something I haven't experienced in leather holsters.
- It is a THIN holster.
- About as comfortable as a full size glock can be, IWB at least.

Comp-tac mtac, with a wilderness tactical instructors belt 1.75 5 stitch. I tried it with a flimsy belt before getting a solid one, even with IWB you need a good belt.
 
I carry my G19 in a blackhawk IWB holster. I forget it's there sometimes.

My G23 rides in a Crossbreed Supertuck for IWB or a Dual Snapcake for OWB from - http://www.zlogonje.com/OWB.php. Most of the time I carry OWB because it is more comfortable but the Crossbreed travels well also. Just depends on what I am doing that day.
 
I used to carry a G23 in an IWB holster while living in Florida in the 90's. There wasn't a whole lot to choose from back then in holster styles. I used a nylon holster with a thumb-break strap, it also had a pouch on the front for an extra magazine. It was comfortable and very concealable even when just wearing shorts and a T-shirt.
 
I sometimes carry my g19 over my g26. I carry both of them in a comptac spartan IWB holster. I have a spartan for my m&p 45c also. I love them they ride great, are very solid, and I love the design of the clips. The clips are the most "snag free" clips I have ever used, never once has my shirt got caught on them while practicing drawing from concealment.
 
Appendix carry. This holster:

Most of the time I just carry my 26, though.

I always carried in a crossbreed, previously. Once I lost my belly and love handles, I discovered appendix was just more comfortable in day to day life. Plus, I can draw seated even with a seatbelt on.
 
Both IWB and OWB depending on circumstances (but mostly IWB). I use a Raven concealment holster. I have also been experimenting with a Raven concealment vanguard 2 (which I typically use for appendix carry).

I've used those and I've been VERY happy with them. Not the raven specifically, but a similar one. I prefer the paracord over the clip. It holds pretty securely. I'm able to hang upside down on the monkey bars with my kid and it stays put so it passes my basic test. :) The downside is I've managed to destroy 2 of them in the dryer.

FWIW, I tried some take downs and basic rolling with a friend with various holsters. The end result was that the gun fell out eventually (eventually=under a minute of vigorous fighting) no matter what we used (crossbreed style, triggerguard, holster above, summer comfort style...). What I learned was that if you roll on the ground fighting, you'll lose your gun unless you have a thumb break or other physical locking method. I always kind of figured that. 4 o'clock behind the hip retained the longest, but hurt like $%^& every time he took me to the mat (concrete would be a major ouch).
 
I carry a G19 IWB, with a Galco King Tuk. It was the first IWB holster I tried, and it's given me nothing to complain about whatsoever.
 
I've been carrying a Glock 19 in a Milt Sparks Executive's Companion IWB leather holster, positioned about 4 o'clock, for over a decade and I've been very pleased with this setup.

All my IWB holsters are the Milt Sparks Executive's Companion. I also carry, depending on the situation, a Glock 27 and a Kahr PM-9 but the Glock 19 is my primary carry gun.
 
I carry a G19 both OWB and IWB, using a Raven Concealment Systems Phantom Modular Holster
