After reading TxInvestigators comments on holster retention in another thread...it has peaked my curiosity. Do you guys/gals use retention or open top holsters? Thanks.

open top kydex, tension screws only. Looking at some of the trigger guard retension holsters though.

Open top.

You don't need a retension strap on a concealed kydex holster.

Who says? Thats a pretty blanket statement, and IMO wrong.

Open top IWB or OWB. With my arthritis I cannot manipulate a thumb break. I tried one of the Bianchi carrylok retension holsters too. No dice.
