A while ago I did a review on the holsters that I have had and used over time - https://youtu.be/gXA7_2VayBE
and then I did a review on just the alien gear holsters that I had, to which were the cloak tuck 3.0, to which I used those for a few years - https://youtu.be/avZWZ1AmXjQ
This review is on their newest holster, the ShapeShift Modular Holster.
This holster is more expensive as I bought the start kit for this. While this is more expensive than buying a cloak tuck 3.0 holster, this holster is really 3 holsters in one
The 3 holsters in one is because with the start kit
- you can do a OWB style holster (either by a belt slide or by a paddle)
- you can also do a IWB style holster
- you can also do an appendix carry style holster.
There is also a free mounting backet that you can mount in your car, under your desk or anywhere basically so that you can have the holster shell positioned anywhere you want it to be.
The adjusting of this holster is a lot easier than their previous holster as there is no need for the hex key wrench anymore to adjust anything. To adjust the height of the clips all you have to do is turn them so that they then release and you can then adjust the height.
If you want to adjust the retention, you use one of the knob thingies that keep the holster in place
to adjust the retention, so this holster you can literally adjust it while out in the field and not have any tools with you.
When it comes to comfort, this is by far my favorite one. This holster for the IWB is samller than their cloak tuck 3.0 holster and it just feels stronger and seems to have more padding
in it.
There is even a thumb release on it so that the gun will lock into place, to which when pressed you can pull the gun out of the holster then, which could be nice for if you have it mounted in your car, under your desk or even for a OWB carry.
As always Alien Gear has a 30 day money back guarantee on their holsters and they offer a lifetime warranty on the holster as well.
