What do you folks do for holsters? I was thinking of getting a IWB, OWB and a belly holster for each of my guns but was wondering if this is overkill?
Currently I have a :
Galco Pocket holster for the Bersa Thunder, with a OWB on the way.
A Blackhawk Sepra for the Springfield and the Glock 19.
I have a IWB for the Glock 19 and that is pretty comfortable.
My wife has a pocket book with holster compartment and can carry any gun in it (velco rocks!

)
She also has a fanny pack with holster for 'casual activities' (walking the hound, etc)
Now I have a new horse in the stable. A Glock 30 SF which came with a IWB Galco holster..which worries me really....a little like wearing other peoples underwear!
I have noticed that holster for a Glock 30 SF are hard to come by.
Any recommendations/thoughts about how many holsters is too many...or is it like guns....you can never have enough!

Ewwww Holster Cooties.
If it were an OWB, fine. But an IWB? Yea, thats _Almost_ like sharing underware. More like sharing a t-shirt, that you wear every day, and never wash.
Ewwwww

I have 3. A Crossbreed Supertuck IWB that will be my primary holster, a SmartCarry holster for when I need deeper concealment, and finally a cheap OWB holster that I use primarily for IDPA.

As you know, I favor Greg Kramer's products, only as a consumer and because they work and last. Check out his site

I have a Glock 30 that I use as my daily carry and really like my Comp Tac CTAC for it. It offers a lot of mounting and positioning options, but perhaps most importantly the kydex is very thin - making the thicker frame on the .45 Glocks more concealable.

Most daily carry people I know have a box of holsters that didn't work out.

If you think used IWB is bad, there was somebody selling a used Smartcarry holster.

Thanks everyone.
I am a little concerned about wearing a Smartcarry with a Glock (it only having got the trigger safety) , but it looks like it is a pretty good asset to have in that it looks like any gun will fit it with a bit of luck with a safety pin!
I think my carry of choice may turn out to be the Glock 30 SF as much as possible with the Bersa as a backup/spare.
Thanks again.

I use a SmartCarry with a Glock and it would be downright impossible for the trigger to get pulled through the fabric in the normal course of wearing it. I've tried to get the trigger to pull through the fabric even using the end of a pencil to dig into it and haven't been able to do so. It's a pretty thick material.

Thanks Brian, that just about seals the deal then. I think SmartCarry is definately the way to go for me.
I apprecaite all y'alls input.
