I've been eyeballing a p365 to replace my LCP II for a long time and finally bought one and have started the break-in process. Amazingly accurate pistol for being small. The 10 round with pinky extension is my favorite configuration. The gun was 'filthy' from the factory (new in box), took some good cleaning to prep it to fire the first time. Also noticed it likes to slow down when sliding forward that last 1/4"-1/2", I'm told it should go away with the break in. After the first 100 rounds, it has gotten better, but not completely gone. Had 1 failure to chamber (was almost in, but hung up with a small amount remaining, that last 1/4" I mentioned prior). I did shoot 5 different types of ammo to be fair.
  • I'm looking for a Kydex IWB holster to carry in the 3 or 4 o'clock position. (most appendix holsters work here too).
However, my real questions are:
  1. What holsters did you love, hate, etc.
  2. Did you go with the claw extension, single clip, dual clips, etc.?
  3. Did you go with standard clip or tuck model (not planning to tuck in a shirt, but seems more flexible)?
I know, holsters are one of those things you get a drawer full of, it's just the nature of things. However, I'm trying to create a centralized list here. Pics would be appreciated if you feel so inclined.

I'm looking at the Concealment Express IWB KYDEX to start. Simple, and I can add the claw later if needed. But I'm open to suggestions.



P.S. The attached pic was my first run at the range with the p365. The top targets are 3" circles at about 30ft. Really surprised to get that accuracy with a tiny package on the first time using it.

That's a GREAT price for a starter holster. Seems like I should get it just because! Thanks for sharing.



On a side note, I went ahead and ordered this while deciding on something better (The Vedder, Versacarry, and Bradec all look good!). Figured zero risk and free returns with amazon (start the holster drawer, early, heh).

Thanks! I'm noticing the new lighttuck has an OPEN bottom to allow adding a threaded barrel. Not a fan of more 'lint' factor or thicker on the bottom. Other than that, the fact it's so adjustable seems like a SERIOUS consideration.
Mine are all open a little on the bottom and they are a couple years old. Not open enough for a threaded barrel but not sealed either so lint is/was going to be an issue anyways. If you even consider it an issue. When I notice buildup of lint I just wipe the tip of the barrel off. And even if you had to draw and shoot its not like a little fuzzy lint would affect your bullet anyways.
