After years of concealed carry and switching weapons/holsters/mag carriers/belts, I have reached concealed carry nivana.

My recipe:

Weapon: HK P2000SK (.357 Sig, V3 configuration). I am a firm believer in polymer now that I have conceal carried thru 5 Florida summers. This HK conceals well. I love .357 Sig as a self defense cartridge. I was weaned on a DA/SA platform and am most comfortable with it. The reliability? It's an HK........

Holster: Matt Del Fatti ISP-SS (IWB). This is my first from Matt. It is black, right handed and made from hard rolled horsehide. It has a 1.5" padded, sharkskin slot and is set to a 15 degree rake. I will never give up my VMIIs but this is certainly less bulky without the VMII's double loop set-up. It feels tight to the body and is rock solid, especially since I lined up my jean's belt loop behind the slot and threaded the belt thru both. It was gift from a friend.

Mag Carrier: There is no compromise here. Milt Sparks makes my favorite mag carrier. This is a double carrier and is 2nd to none. It has the snap loops in the back for easy on/off if needed.

Belt: A black 1.5" Rafter S Gunleather sharkskin belt with a chrome buckle. You'll have to go a long ways to convince me that for $82 there is a better exotic skinned belt on the market.

Ammo: 125 gr Speer Gold dots.....enough said.


Sometimes you have to mix and match to arrive at a top quality carry platform.

I think this configuration will keep me happy (and safe) for years to come.

That's a very nice looking gun and setup.

I may eventually buy a P2000SK to replace my current Glock 26 as I really like the HK P2000 series.

I used to carry my Glock 32 (.357 Sig) but switched to a 5" Colt Government Model. I carry it in a Milt Sparks VM-II as well. I have a generic brand gun belt that is thick and surprisingly very sturdy but after seeing $80 for sharkskin...I gotta call RafterS and get one. :D
 
Nothing says it all has to "match".

You are absolutely right. Nothing says you have to buy a belt, holster, mag pouch, etc. From the same maker. The only two stipulations I have are 1) quality stuff and 2) belt size and accessory slots are the same. You seem to have those covered and look good, to boot. Nice gear.
 
My two main carry setups are just plain jane black:

Wilson Combat Professional in a Milt Sparks Versa Max 2

Springfield XD-45 in a Broomeland Max Con V
