Reviews & Ratings for Fobus Paddle Compact Holster — 35 reviews — Page 1

Perfect fit for my XD mod2. Very comfortable to wear, holds the weapon nicely and have had no issues with it loosening up or the holster slipping on my belt. Great product. I highly recommend as this is my third Fobus holster.

I have a Fobus paddle for my LC9 and love it. Was looking for a holster for my 1911 I thought I should go with something "better". I purchased another brand with a thumb release and didn't like it. I decided to get another Fobus and very happy I did. It holds my gun higher then the other one did which helps keep the muzzle from peeking out under my jacket yet it doesn't feel top heavy being up a little higher. Simpler design also allows the gun to sit closer to the body for better concealment. It's easy to get on and adjust position and at the same time has enough paddle in the pants retention to not come out while drawing. I've heard people say their gun just disappears while wearing their inside the waste band holster it's that comfortable. To me ANYTHING inside the waste I'm going to know it's there. With the paddle it's just the slight weight of the gun on your body which is so much more comfortable. I also have a leather OW belt holster and the gun feels better or less noticeable to me in the paddle since the weight of the gun is supported by the paddle as well as your belt. All around a really nice holster. I liked the fobus paddle holsters enough to order another one for my Glock 36.

This is one of 4 Fobus holsters that I own. While I like traditional leather holsters, they many times squeak while moving. Fobus holsters don't have that issue. Only the 24/7 Fobus holster for my Taurus was deemed unworkable as I couldn't , try as I may, reliably upholster my pistol, with reasonable force even after adjustment. No problems for the others such as this one for the 1911 compact. This one works pretty much as a jack slide holster and will also accommodate the commander and govt models as well. I also have the Fobus holster for the full size 1911 which offers full firearm protection of the slide.

Contrary to what I was told (I took a chance anyway) this holster does fit the Springfield 9MM MOD2. I backed off the retention screw about a full turn and my MOD 2 snapped right in. As with the retention design of this holster, a quick, snappy draw and it's out. No problems with fit or function. I use a Fobus holster for my Kimber Ultra Carry as well. Easy put on and take off as I have to do this several time a day so a good paddle holster was a must. Conceals well under a coat or loose fitting shirt. Holds the gun in tight but not for a tee shirt. Would recommend to anyone looking for a good every day carry holster.

This holster is a must for anyone who carries a concealed weapon. It is very comfortable to wear you hardly know it's there. You have easy access to your weapon and the holster has the adjustable retention to hold your weapon in place without falling out you can make it as hard to retrieve or easy for quick access. I would recommend this product to anyone that carries.

Fits my Taurus PT 609 perfectly excellent product & good value very satisfied with purchase
Pros: lightweight, concealable, adjustible tension screw
Cons: none

This holster surprised me. I have poor luck with holsters being uncomfortable.
This one is comfortable quick and fits very close to your side with nearly no
printing, even under just a tee shirt.
It is also a perfect fit for my Interarms Firestar M40.
Pros: Excellent fit and concealability. Fits M40 Firestar!
Cons: None!

I gave this holster a high review because it's Fobus. Who needs to say more? Comfortable paddle, excellent materials, and figuratively - bullet proof. It will last a long time, and work phenomenally well and look good doing it. However, this is a universal holster - one that fits multiple pistols - and it does not fit the Taurus Millenium Pro PT145 very well. Even by tightening the retention down until it was almost impossible to remove the pistol, there was still slop resulting in the pistol swinging back and forth inside the holster. It's not the holsters fault - again, this is just a UNIVERSAL holster and the trigger guard on the Taurus is more rounded, not allowing it to lock completely into the "square" molded holster. Otherwise, the quality and construction are top notch. I'm just waiting until they have one that fits better.
Pros: Great construction, comfortable paddle, good design
Cons: This universal holster does not fit the Taurus Millenium Pro

it works is lite weight. easy ajustment.

Pros: fits my taruas pt-145 pro & CZ97b
Cons: hard to take off
