Glock 23 Holster

[DukeW]

Hi All,
I need a holster for my Glock 23, for concealed carry and while hunting (attached to my pack belt). I'm looking at 1791 holsters because of availability and the options they offer.
Any feedback on using the 1791 holsters or other options to consider would be much appreciated. Thanks!

IIRC, Glock 19 holsters should fit G23 generations 1-4. The G23 gen 5 has a wider slide than prior generations.

May give you options you hadn't considered. Again unless gen 5...

Thanks, but mine is a gen 5 (should have mentioned that)

Ahhh...sorry, not helpful then! Following tho, as we do have a G23 g5...

I've been carrying my Gen 3 G23 in a Blackhawk Serpa CQC for years. Very light, very secure, belt or paddle.
Been used while hunting and for concealed carry. Also used it shooting IDPA matches.

No gen 5, sadly...

I love my 1791 holster, I have one in leather for IWB carrying my Glock 30 (which is significantly thicker than a G23 gen5)

I have 1791 holsters for other guns, and I very much like their products.

A Vedder LightTuck might work for you. Swapping the clip to the appropriate Utiliclip may be helpful.
It would keep the pistol positioned appendix and under the pack's waist belt...providing easy access, avoiding interference, and adequate retention.

Edit to add: I am not recommending attaching a holstered firearm to a pack. Only providing an option.

Thanks everyone. I'll try a 1791, see how it goes.
