N82 tactical holsters

Has anybody tried these and if so how do you like them? They look awesome, especially the new "professional" model. They look like they would be extremely comfortable.

I have one of their original ones and it is very comfortable. The only downside is that it is hard to re holster dud to the elastic. I think their new model with the kydex instead of elastic would be ideal if the price is the same as the elastic model.

Sorry. Here is a link. They look very cool to me and comfortable. Was looking to see if anybody had used one.

Here's a picture of the Professional. This is tuckable and cantable. The Original and Orignal Tuckable are made of neoprene or something. This one is polycarbonate. The soft ones can be used for multiple guns but this one is a lot better for reholstering.

Especially with the professional model, I'm not sure I'd be too confident in the retention of the holster inside my pants if I had to draw the gun. I mean, I'm not sure the holster wouldn't come out with the gun. It doesn't look, to me, that the holster is secured to my pants or belt very well.

I am concerned it would tilt forward or backward, not cool.

I would think if nothing else, your belt secured around it would hold it in. I've been using a Remora which has zero clips and isn't secured to anything at all but with the tension of my pants & belt around it, it stays in just fine.

I loved the original at first look but it seems it would be almost impossible to re holster without unbuttoning your pants. The new model looks ideal; however the price is $69 instead of $39.

I figured the price would be higher, that is too much. There are better holsters in that price range. The original N82 was good, but it does move some due to only being secured by one clip to the belt. Re-holstering is very difficult and the main reason I did not like it. After buying my Raven Concealment I stopped looking for holsters, it is by far the best I own. When you carry a small handgun there are more holsters that may work. My EDC is a 5" 1911 so I need a good holster and the cheaper ones never work well.
