Glock 19

[Tayta_Mayne]

Ok, before I get the " try the search button " comment let me just say I have tried a few times and couldnt find any info I was looking for. I think I may start carrying a glock 19 in the near future and a need a good IWB or OWB holster. I was looking at the kydex holsters at a local shop I think OWB? And I started to wonder, would that kydex wear on your pistol more than say leather or even better the fleece lined holsters? So if you guys could offer up some ideas for a good g19 holster please do, and anyone using kydex please tell me more about it. And if you could list some prices.

good choice.
I carry G19 OWB in a Sickinger Yaqui Holster (http://www.sickinger.at/Englisch/Sites/home.htm):
the yaqui prints the least. it's perfect IMHO:

and a G26 (with 15rds Mag and G19Mag+grip extension) in a Milt Sparks Versa Max 2 IWB (http://www.miltsparks.com/) holster:

I don't like kydex that much. Leather is mor comfortable. Remember that you carry that thing 24/7 (as I assume).

Stay safe and load your G19 with Federal EFMJs or Fiocchis EMB (tested here (http://www.raoulwagner.com/tests2005.htm))

i have about 5 holsters for my g 19 and another 5 for my xd45.......by far the most comfy is the crossbreed. nice combination of kydex and leather. i would reccomend a cheap uncle mike or something along that line at first,as it will take a couple o months to get the crossbreed

The attached photo is a Thumb break model for a Glock 22,1/2' longer barrel, very similar to the Glock 19 holster. Hope this helps.:) http://sunriseleather.com/images/HT700Glock22thumbbreakholster.jpg

Tayta.....well, just a couple of general comments and then a couple more :D

EVERYONE makes holsters for the g19....EVERYONE! So first realize you are not limited by anything or anyone.

Now....great gun. Ive owned them and have carried them..they simply work.
For Kydex...most of my customers have owned or do own kydex holsters and they love them. Most carry them OWB...including me. That says alot for a leather holster maker. I personally dont find them comfy for IWB carry...but thats just me.

For an IWB holster....here is where you can spend some time. Id recommend leather as it moves and bends with you providing comfort while still doing its job of retaining and concealing your gun. You would do yourself a service by following the previous posters advice and looking at an offset loops design IWB.
Meaning the loops are split and are placed away from the gun...it makes for thinner, more stable and more comfy holster/gun. Thus you are more likely to carry it......
Look around and see what you like.......ask questions and then ask some more.
Shoot well and god bless
