Best speed holster

I am shelling out the cash for a Para 14.45 Limited, so I might as well spend some on a good speed rig. So which one do I want? It needs to be reasonably priced.

Speed holster?

For what? IDPA, IPSC?

I don't know if Gilmore is still in business, but my Glock 20 is REALLY fast out of it, more so than any other holster... for "practical" shooting that is :-)


Regards,

Gary

A Ghost or Limcat is hard to beat. They are compact and adjustable in so many ways to speed up your draw more. What I really like the most is the fact they are so compact that the bottom of the holster will not drag on your thigh when you are sitting or running around hosing targets. The Bianchi limited holster that is tweaked is also hard to beat. josh

Ghost, CR Speed, Limcat, Safariland 012

Those are the best bets and the most common. Cant really go wrong with any eventhough I dont like the safariland since it hits your leg. My choice would be limcat or ghost.

Can't be IDPA. There are a lot of shooters at a club that I belong to that use Ghost for USPSA (IPSC) and seem to like it.

IDAP really has no such thing as a speed holster.
