I'm getting ready for my "advanced" defensive handgun class on Saturday, this will be the first time I've spent any significant time wearing a holster and mag pouch.
Questions -
For purposes of this class, I purchased an inexpensive generic nylon belt holster that seems to fit either my P95 and P345 really well and holds the gun nice and secure. I was interested in something that would be adaptable to either, the more expensive holsters seemed to be custom-made for one or the other.
The strap over the gun is fully adjustable (velcro anchors on both sides), and it seems most natural to position the straps so that the "unsnap" requires a tug out away from the body. Is that correct? The holster shown below looks as if it unsnaps into the body. Perhaps this is just the difference between a thumb break snap holster and another type, I would like to understand this better.
By the way, rather than the positions shown above for the strap, with both pistols it seems most natural to angle the strap back to put it across the channel below the slide at the top of the grip. I don't see a safety issue since both pistols are DA/SA. Any thoughts?
