galco Skyops tuckable: A quick Review & picks

[RedMongoosE]

Hello fellow friends,

I have been on my quest for some time to find a perfect carry method for all the cloths that I usually wear (suit, shorts, hiking, board shorts, etc. It has been fun!

I wear a suit for some days of the week, and a shoulder holster doesn't quite "conceal" the way I would like it too, my suites are cut in a more European style so they are a little tighter than the average "mature" suit. I needed another option for carrying my G23. My build is rather lean, I'm 6'2 165-170

I got a package from UPS yesterday with my Glaco Skyops tuckable IWB holster for my Glock 23. I do understand that having a tuckable holster is not the best way to carry if you have other means, but if you have to wear a suit, or don't like/ cant wear over sized garments, then i think its a great way to carry.

here are some pros:

>very well made, strong leather with tight fitting mold

> very nice cant, something my other galco iwb really needed.

> descrete 3 prong clips for your belt, no large clip with galco logo on it

> Small, snug to the firearm with no unnecessary bulk

>Fair price, I payed 60ish from Amazon, New In Box

> can wear as a regular iwb with out tucking in a shirt.


Some cons:

>only comes in black ( I think brown will come later)

>Belt clips are fixed, so you must have a belt that is that size, not all of my belts will fit.

Nice... was looking at that one recently.

Thanks for taking the time to document it for us!

It looks nice and functional, too. I have been struggling to find the right holster for my G27. You are about the same build as me (6' 2" 175#) so this might be the right move for me. Is it comfortable? Have you been wearing it around town for a few days?

I have been wearing it everywhere i can legally carry concealed in California w/o a ccw ( i got this holster for my journeys outside of this state until my cal ccw arrives).

When i carry around the house and other places i can legally carry loaded, I usually carry my Beretta M9 with an OWB plastic Fobus holster.

But since i really want to get comfortable with this skyops, I've replaced my at home M9 firearm with the Glock and this holster.

So far its a great holster, I cant feel it when i'm sitting down, and it allows me full range of motion standing. I have done chores in the back yard, and its not needed any adjustment from the user when its secured on me... in other words, it feels how a holster should feel.



will keep updating.

I saw those at Shotshow. So far everyone who bought one seem to like those.
