STICKY HOLSTERS - Larger Framed Automatics with 3 to 4-inch barrel (LG6)

I'm new to the concealed carry thing, and I had no idea it would be so hard to find the best way to actually conceal a weapon - I thought choosing the right gun and ammo were the hard part. Making matters worse, I live in a warm climate and I almost never wear anything with a thick waistband or a belt. Although I value my personal security, last thing I want to do is give up my comfy yoga pants and shorts for jeans and a belt. Then I discovered "Sticky Holsters" - a game-changer for me. As I did my research and read the reviews, I almost felt the Sticky approach was a little too good to be true, but I'm happy to say that this isn't the case. My Beretta Storm Compact fits it like a glove, and so long as I'm wearing bottoms that have a reasonably snug wide waistband, there are no issues at all. It tucks in just above my hip bone and stays firmly planted there without any problem. With a big top, sweater, hoodie or jacket, it's totally invisible, yet inches away if the need arises. My loaded Storm is fairly heavy, but once I got used to carrying around the extra weight, it's been more comfortable than I hoped. I won't say that I've ever forgotten I'm wearing it, but once I lost the fear that it would fall out of my clothes, I've been a lot more relaxed over the whole thing. Compared to the high-quality Beretta-made leather IWB holster for my weapon (which only works with loose jeans and a belt), the Sticky wins hands-down. Only issues I have with the Sticky holster is that it's a little challenging to draw your weapon quickly, and next to impossible to re-holster without taking the holster out of your pants. It's also a little challenging in the restroom, and I suppose even after using it a while, I still worry it's not completely secure - I sometimes find myself moving gently so as not to have it tumbling out of my clothes. I'd also probably stay away from anything heavier than my 27 ounce Storm...indeed, I'm considering a more compact weapon like the P365 instead, and I'm happy to say I Sticky makes a holster for it. Bottom line is that I love my Sticky holster - it's made it a lot easier for me to be armed on a lot of days where I otherwise wouldn't be. If you're like I was and struggling to find the best holster, definitely give the Sticky products a look. Totally recommended!

First impressions... LOVE this. Normally, with an IWB, I have to wear pants a size bigger. This slipped into my everyday pants with a simple loosening of my belt. I had a tucked shirt and thought it might not stick without skin contact, but it stuck fine. I was able to jump up and down, jog in place, jog around the room, and it didn't come loose. Gun stayed put, holster stayed put, gun drew easily. The best part is that my new baby is a clone of the CZ-75 compact. It weights 36oz unloaded. But because this is supported by contact instead of a clip, spreading the weight over the large contact area instead of one or two contact points, it gave me a surprising level of comfort with that heavy gun. Easily repositioned, but then stays put. Give it a 5-10 pound tug and it stays put. But a good strong tug and it comes out. Haven't gotten the hang of a one-handed reholster yet, but two-handed was quick. All in all, a great little holster.

I have been unable to find a belt holster that is workable for my (fairly) slim physique. Because of the promise of this one staying in place and the low cost exposure, I decided to try the sticky for my XDM40 compact. I am happy to say that I like this one better than any belt holster I've tried. It actually does stay in place, and without loops or hooks, it is easily placed wherever it fits the body's contours best. It is the least noticeable and most comfortable of any IWB or OWB I know of. If I'm wearing pants that are too tight for IWB (!) I wear it over the pants but under the belt, with a cover garment. It is nice that it's tuckable, too, however because of its sticky quality, pulling the shirt from over it is a bit slow. Small price to pay, in my opinion. I would find it rather large for pocket carry, but so is the XDM. I can't speak to the small sizes for mouse guns in the pocket. All holsters are a compromise, but this one fills more of the desirable squares than most. I recommend it.

I originally purchased this to try out and use as a temporary holster for my new Ruger American Compact 9mm while waiting for a custom kydex holster to be made, but it turns out, I think this will be my main everyday holster! It's super comfortable, stays in place with plenty of movement, and draws clean every time (even with gym shorts and jogging pants). It also fits my S&W M&P9C, which allows the huge ambidextrous safety to not dig into my body. It doesn't allow you to switch the safety on/off (in case you want to do it discretely) which is a drawback for me, but I have trained to switch the safety off while drawing in the same motion. If it only had some kind of belt clip attached to it, it would be perfect and give you piece of mind knowing that it would never come out of your waist. I've always been a kydex holster user, so I hope the material stays durable for the long run.

Love this thing. If my gun was just a bit smaller it'd be perfect. That's not the holster's fault. But in most of my clothes this thing hides my EDC well. It's not so easy to draw from jeans or any pants that don't have big pockets, so that's the only reason it doesn't get 5 stars from me. But that's still not necessarily the product's fault. For what it is, it's great. Stays in the pocket well when drawing your weapon. Printing is minimal, with the exception that people can see you have something big in your pocket if the clothing isn't loose enough. Good to have as an option, so grab yourself one!

This works well for me. I normally carry in a purse because of the size of my weapon. I will eventually get a smaller carry gun especially for summer. That being said, I don't carry in my pocket being a female. This holster though is great to tuck in a waistband and for some purse pockets. It stays put when drawing as long as the purse pocket has a tight enough fit. I also like it for around the house. I keep it in the holster when up in a cupboard or to quick grab when someone comes to the door. For reference, I carry a Springfield XDm 9mm compact. I also have the Ava inside the waistband holster which I love but don't really use in the warmer months. It's made especially for women.

I bought this for a Bersa Thunder Ultra compact 9mm handgun. The gun fits well in the holster. The "sticky" material does help hold the gun in place. I don't wear a belt very often which is one reason I wanted to try this holster. Even though the Bersa is a little heavier than some guns, the holster tends to stay in place. I havenjoyed used this for appendix carry and small of the back. The holster worked well and stayed in place. I tried it out wearing a pair of regular hiking shorts and had no problems. I will say that a heavier gun like the Bersa would probably slip and little if wearing lightweight shorts. I will probably get another one of these holsters for my go to concealed weapon which is smaller and lighter weight. I like the versatility of the Sticky holster

I have one of these holsters for my S&W M&P 40C. I was immediately thrilled by the grip and. It has become my second favorite holster for IWB. It is very comfortable inside of jeans or dress pants. When going to the gym I prefer my DeSantis IWB with a retention clip that keeps my firearm above my drawstring. SUPER COMFORTABLE and can worn all day long! I enjoy the fact that the business end is stitched closed also. I rarely write reviews, so there you go. Buy it for the M&P 40C
