A few years ago, got mom a Fobus paddle holster for her Glock 26. She put on the holster, holstered her gun, and then could not draw it. The gun was empty at the time (checked before testing the holster). So she asked me to draw it from the holster. I picked up mom off the ground by her Glock.

I took her gun and holster home and treated the holster with ArmorAll. If you have every ArmorAlled your vinyl car seats or steering wheel, you know how much friction is reduced. I then spent most of the evening drawing and holstering the gun until things relaxed a bit.

ArmorAll works well, but DO NOT GET IT ON YOUR GLOCK OR POLYMER GUNS. Let's just say that this is a comment based on experience.
