Default Leather IWB Holster

Anyone know local places in OC that carry quality leather holters (IWB tuckable)? Can't seem to find anything decent holsters around here.

It looks like there's a serious market opportunity for quality IWB holsters. Everyone is 6-24 weeks backordered, on a made to order basis.

The Milt Sparks MV2 seems to be the most popular, TT GunLeather High Quality Leather Gun Holsters is a pretty close copy. A gun I just bought came with a "CrossBreed" IWB - I don't think I'm ever going to use it.

I know chromerider has a Ultra CDP.

Bombard posted the website above.

A lot of us have been using Tim's holsters. I love mine! He does great work, has great customer service and and a quick turn around.


People talk about Milt Sparks, I have never used one personally and its a 6 month wait. I did order a few just because.

I don't know of any local places that have a good selection.

What works best seems to depend on the gun you'll be carrying in it. I use a Comp-Tac MTAC (leather back, kydex front) that works extremely well and conceals amazingly well (especially with v-clips). You can get em made-to-order in a week or less and they have a 30-day no-questions-asked return policy.

If you want 100% leather, the High Noon in-stock holsters seem to be pretty quick to get, though I haven't tried them myself.

I have a Kimber Ultra CDP, Glock 23 and I'm debating if I should add my CZ P01 to my permit. I'm still looking for a 3rd gun (something light and small) for pocket carry.

AMS Mike, How long did it take you to get your holster from TTGunleather? How do you like it?

Took 3-weeks. I got mine this last Tuesday but had been using someone elses for a week prior.

If you would like, you may borrow my Galco ankle holster with calf strap. Might be a good alternative for you in a suit.

I will bring it tonight so you can see it.

But not tuckable!
