Hi guys
I don't have any experience with comp-tac holsters. In fact I haven't had any experience with any kydex holsters. I've been happy to slap leather for all my life. However I've been playing with the idea and the one company I came across on the net was Comp-tac. The arfcomers all rave about these holsters. I firstly like the look and they ship to South Africa (HUGE and I can't state how HUGE that is but HUGE bonus). I can actually get some.
So firstly I was wondering if an IWB holster isn't uncomfortable in Kydex. I mean it doesn't breath/absorb the sweat. Of course this keeps your gun nice and dry but would I want to carry it all day, every day if it feels really uncomfy and hot?
Then which model to select. Price being an issue as well. Our currency doesn't stack up all that well against the mighty dollar.
I was looking at the following:
The Infidel holster
The C-TAC holster
And then these two hybrids:
The Minotaur Spartan Holster
The Minotaur MTAC Holster
(The only difference I can spot with the last two is that the MTAC has an extra leather patch on the bag to cover the screws.)
I like the idea of having some leather against my skin to deal with the sweat while keeping my gun safe.
I do IDPA and I'm looking to use it for that purpose as well. I see Blade-Tech's IDPA holsters are just kydex. So I was wondering if the hybrids better or worse for this use?
