Kydex holsters have become very popular for many reasons. The Galco Triton IWB Kydex Holster is one of the good ones.
The Triton IWB covers the firearm barrel and slide completely. This means there is no exposed metal inside the pants to snag or discolor the garments (some people don’t clean their weapons regularly). It also has a sweat guard above the belt line to keep body moisture and acid from reaching the slide.
One of the things I have discovered about the minimal sweat guard, however, is that the grip of the gun does rub against your body. This is fine if you wear a t-shirt under your cover garment, but in warmer climates this can be a drawback.
Some guns have pretty rough grips (for good reasons I might add) and can “scratch the hide right off”. They don’t really scratch that much, but they can get a little irritating.
Galco has two types of belt clips for their IWB holsters. One goes over the belt with a bend on the bottom to catch the lower edge of the belt. This keeps the holster in place during a draw.
The other clip goes between the belt and pants. This hides the clip behind the belt for added concealment. This one also has the retention bend on the bottom, and that is the only thing seen by anyone else.
As with almost all of the Kydex holsters, the gun retention is molded into the trigger guard section. They have a very distinctive snap when the gun is inserted, and it takes just a little tug to draw the weapon.
Being made of Kydex makes this holster very durable and virtually maintenance-free. A little dusting now and then is all they need. The Galco Triton Kydex IWB Holster can be purchased at Amazon.com.
