Good God! Do you jingle like Santa when you walk?![]()
Malada: what holster is that?
That is a Galco Triton.
I picked it up at a garage sale for $10. (Also got a Glock mag for $5)
On the way home I was saying to myself I needed another holster like I need a hole in the head.
I have a drawer full of holsters including big names like Kramer and Alessi but once I put this one on, I've been wearing it ever since.
It is easy to slip on and off, but locks securely to my belt. It is also comfortable to wear.
It is by far my cheapest holster but I have been very happy with it.

This is what I normally carry...and yes, Katie, I often jingle when I walk.
Lower left pocket: Cover, baseball cap (not pictured) and reflective belt.
Lower right pocket: Wallet
Right boot: ESEE-3MIL
Mid-thigh (L): gloves, calculator
Mid-thigh (R): Orders, 3 puke bags (airsickness), chopsticks (in the red pouch), spork/spatula combo, extra flight patches
Left arm pocket: Pen, pencil, grease pencil, computer stylus for touch-screen laptop, three flash drives, USB extension cable, broken white Mars plastic eraser (2 pcs.), Victorinox blue knife, BIC lighter
Left breast pocket: Truck keys, Kershaw Scallion knife, Gerber Recon LED flashlight, earplugs, $3 in change, Air Force golf ball marker, extra lithium AA battery, cell phone, Sansa mp3 player
Right breast pocket: Altoids, Flight floss (12 yds of 30-lb-test dental floss contained in a credit card-sized container), Streamlight Sidewinder flashlight, Inova flashlight
Occasionally, I carry the Kershaw A100 multi-tool, and/or the SOG Twitch XL, and I wear the Citizen WR200
And yes, all of this adds about ten pounds to my overall weight, but I use almost every item in my pockets every day.
Could I get by with less? Certainly. And I do most of the time. When I'm not in uniform, I typically only carry my wallet, keys, ESEE-3MIL, cell phone, SOG Twitch XL, and mischmetal firestick (not pictured).
And yes, I realize I'm a walking advertisement.
Yes, that realization does chafe me a bit.
Edit: I could easily be convinced to trade in the Kershaw Scallion and the SOG Twitch XL for an Izula Folder!!!:thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:
It's not like Jeff's busy or anything!
Do you wear cargo pants w/suspenders, GEEZUS !?
He has to have a murse!
