Re: Impressed by Remora

I have used one for several weeks. I have a Walther PPQ with a Veridian C5 laser (no light).

I originally ordered the #10 with a reinforced top with the light/laser option. I also specified the ART (reduced profile top that enables getting a better grip on the gun during the draw).

The holster arrived without the ART option.
The extra space was not needed for the Veridian C5. The PPQ set too far down in the holster for my use.
I contacted Alan and he sent me a #10 reinforced top ART (no added space for laser/light). Great customer service.

The following is my experience with the #10 reinforced top ART IWB and the PPQ/C5 YMMV:

The PPQ/C5 combo fit very tightly in the holster. It was so tight that upon drawing sometimes the holster came out with the PPQ.

I left the PPQ/C5 in the holster for several days to allow the holster to mold to the PPQ/C5 a bit. The holster did loosen but it is still a tight fit especially with your belt but I can draw it now and the holster stays put. The holster is still tight while re-holstering. Re-holstering needs to be done slowly and deliberately (a good idea in general anyway).

The holster does shift around a bit during multiple draw/reholster drills. I probably would not use it in a training class.

The holster is very comfortable. I do not notice it while I am wearing it.

I have one of the new OWB Remoras on the way now to see how that works.
