This is not a cheezy paid advertisement. I have never talked to this company. A family member had good things to say about them and let me try one out!
If I feel I need something bigger than a p365 etc., then I’m not worried about concealing it anymore, though options are always good to have available. I’ve fussed with IWB holsters (like most) for years and always come back to pocket carry (in a pocket holster of course). Also like most, I have a whole trunk full of holsters I used for a short period of time and tossed in the bin. My experience with IWB carry was that I typically couldn’t wait to get it off at the end of the day (if not sooner), leading me to being lazy about carrying. Since switching to primarily pocket carry, I’ve been carrying every waking moment, every single day. I might print from time to time, depending on what I’m wearing, but in all the years I’ve been carrying (decades now), I’ve never had anyone mention it or seem to notice. I’m so accustomed to it that when I do decide to belt carry a larger gun, I find myself still reaching to drop my pocket carry in my pocket (and often do anyway because it feels like leaving the house without my wallet). I’ll switch out my spare mag for whatever my belt gun might be but keep the pocket gun handy. -just my 2¢
I pocket carry my 365, I’m of the opinion that the gun you have on you is better than any gun in your safe, if the poop hits the fan. 10 rounds of 9mm should do the trick but just in case I carry a 15 round magazine in my other pocket. If that is not enough to get me out of a bad spot then I guess it is just my time to go.
I have carried daily for well over 25 years, I have a tote full of holsters I should throw away! I have had my urban carry for a couple of months now and can say i am very happy with it! Does it solve all problems? No Does it work pretty damn good allowing you to draw from standing or sitting and do it comfortably? Absolutely! It needs to break in and you need to learn it's quirks, but I like mine!
I've had mine for quite awhile. It's a gen 2, so it's got a magnet retainer. Part of my rotation, when I want something bigger than a 380acp, and not wearing a coat or sweatshirt.
Don’t forget the Urban Carry OWB leather holsters with the retaining clip. Love mine. Quality leather with the safety of the internal clip that holds the gun in the holster. Very comfortable.
Along with most of my friends, I to have one of those in my junk holster box. It looked like a better idea than it turned out to be. Good luck with yours, but it caused more problems for us than it solved.
I use the Urban Carry Lock Leather OWB for my Glock 43X. It is very comfortable and has excellent retention. I bought it to use mainly when I ride my motorcycle but it's so nice I now daily carry with it. Highly recommend.
Urban Carry makes the Leatherlock line of holsters I believe and I own three and love them, also the belts they make are extra good for 60 dollars these are very heavy thick leather so they do not stretch or bend and not sure you can wear them out in a lifetime
I agree with you and with Tom below. This holster is really great with certain outfits as it provides a very deep conceal, "you forget you're wearing it" comfort and a very fast draw that presents my trusty 9mm in a very secure, ergonomic manner. A nice strong, fairly stiff gun belt is a must and the holster simply doesn't work or conceal well with certain slacks or shorts or any garment that doesn't work with a gun belt. My most used holster is a VNSH bellyband holster that I absolutely love and that I can (and do) wear with gym shorts and go jogging, but no single tool does the best job at everything. I have read some real love/hate reviews of the urban carry. To me, the hate reviews sound like someone criticizing a tuxedo because it's not very good for working out in the gym. Paired with the right outfits and a sturdy gun belt, the Urban Carry is a welcome part of my holster rotation.
I had to think about how would holster work for me. I'm kind of skinny so my pants don't stay up without a snug belt. A holster like this would never work for me. There is no way I can get my hand down past my belt and pull gun out. I prefer and use a shoulder holster. That really helps to keep my pants up.
Same problem for me, some days I’m also carrying shoulder rig. I settled for IWB on 3’O Clock with a hybrid holster the only way that I can effectively carry IWB.
Nice. I just bought their Hyperion IWB for my Ruger 9E with an Olight Bladr S green laser light. It gets here in a day or two. Good to see you like yours. 👍👍👍
Bought one of these for my g19, dont care for it at all. I tried it for a week, and gave up on it. I can see where some people might like it, but doesn't work for me. Im 5'10" 215lbs, and unless I wear very loose fitting pants/shorts its not very concealing. Looks like i stuffed a shirt into my pocket. Its a very bulky set up.
I have had one for several years. Didn't like it at all. I use holsters from N82. Prefer their classic model with the elastic that holds numerous firearms in the same holster. And having backing that keeps the firearm from touching skin at all makes it super comfortable. I have fallen asleep numerous times with the pistol still in place. I did prefer their older models that had a steel clip, but the newer models have a plastic clip that allows a little more adjustment.
The longer you use them they become easier to use and don’t print very much . I use mink oil to soften it . Am happy with the 3 I have including the spar mag carriers . Have g30 a .357 2 inch smith and compact 1911 that I rotate for edc
I bought one years ago & the leather is fairly stiff so I had to yank hard to get the gun up. I just used it a few times but I may give it another try.
I hope it goes well for you, but that goofy thing aint for me! I do have a couple of their Lock Leather holsters. I have one for my Ruger Security 380 and one or my SP101 .327 Fed Mag 3". Those I do like and recommend them to everyone who inquires about either of them. Living my best La Vida Loca here in south eastern Arizona
I had one years ago when I first started carrying. It works for what it is. If you need deep concealment its good. But if you have the ability to carry in a normal holster I would rather do that.
*"The Concealed Gatapult!"* Look for the security footage of a guy actually needing to use his. He pulled it out and it flung his damned gun at the armed robber! The robber picked it up and ran off with it. 🤣
@@zer0talen74 It was pre-Plandemic, so no telling if it's still floating around YT or not, but some of the concealed carry blogs might have it somewhere.
I appreciate you showing how this thing works but I'm also saying something that makes it really a no-go for me. An illustrated by asking one simple question. What if in a dire emergency you need to drive that with one hand only? Please think about that everyone.
hey community, I'm on the way to buying a 308 rifle and would like to get a second opinion. browning x bolt speed, weatherby mark v hunter, model 307 meateater, bergara b-14. I like to shoot at long range, of course the weapon has to shoot well (precisely) and it should be long-lasting and not get hot too quickly
Buy a rifle with alot of replacement barrel options. You can get great groups out of stock rifles with the right handload, but the thinner profile barrels are more susceptible to accuracy loss with heat. A good bull barrel will help you maintain tighter groups out to distance.
hey adam brotha great holster n vid n content there , great pistol as well there , check out g22/r.i.p. ammo n blunt faced wadcutters for all self defense rounds , also gorilla ammo in florida , thanks n talk soon bro > tom !

My dude, I love my urban carry. I recommend carrying it weak side cross draw so you can pull it up with your weak hand. That's how I do it

I've worn mine daily for years
Comfortable and convenient
And made near me in Fentress and Morgan counties in TN
Any chance we can get a follow up video on this. Been thinking about buying one and would like to hear your imput on feel and such. Thanks.
Very nice, if you're always standing, don't seem very effective if you're sitting down in a car......road rage.
Lots of holsters out there
Due to work, my shirt is often tucked in. Pocket carry has worked best so far, but this may be worth giving a whirl.
I had one years ago when I first started carrying. It works for what it is. If you need deep concealment its good. But if you have the ability to carry in a normal holster I would rather do that.
I imagine it’s going to be difficult to draw while sitting down/driving a vehicle.
Love mine! I have two of them
*"The Concealed Gatapult!"*
Look for the security footage of a guy actually needing to use his. He pulled it out and it flung his damned gun at the armed robber! The robber picked it up and ran off with it. 🤣
Yikes
I have looked and can't find the video. Please link it.

Ive seen lots of their ads on yt , i considered the locklearher but not pushed the button.
I use a versa carry holster. Does the job for me.
I have several of them holsters and I like them. Very good quality.
I feel they are a negligent discard waiting to violate man parts.
Do they allow for a light and a red dot……??? Can’t Find anything for my F509C tactical with a red dot and TLR7A light……
Hmm. I'd guess so
@@WHOTEEWHO ??? lol
Urban Carry Hyperion IWB or OWB.
I've tried that exact holster. Im 6'5 290lbs and it didn't work for me.
I appreciate you showing how this thing works but I'm also saying something that makes it really a no-go for me.
An illustrated by asking one simple question.
What if in a dire emergency you need to drive that with one hand only?
Please think about that everyone.
When are you going to play with the 300wsm again?
Hopefully soon
Can’t draw from sitting. If you wear a tight belt it will choke off the holster. Isn’t fast at all. If you hurry your gun will fly out
Great idea for just standing around. Try walking/working all day, bending, in and out of vehicles. No, not for me. I’ll stick with my Galco KingTuk.
Interesting 🤔
Nice kore essentials belt… idk if this will work for anyone who uses their pockets 😂😂😂😂
Yeah I like the Kore belt
I Just put 25 in left front pocket. Cowboy dint shake hans with left hand draw.
Nothing wrong with a dad bod I hear the chicks dig it haha
🤣🤣🤣
❤❤❤
one thing i did notice when you were sitting,it printed bad
True BUT I was also wearing super lightweight shorta
@@WHOTEEWHO ok. Maybe it needs something thicker.
Is this something you would recommend for someone in a wheelchair
I didn't try drawing it sitting down. Hard to say
@@WHOTEEWHO let me know how that works
@@peacemaker-du4hz I can't. Not my holster. Was just trying it quick
👍
👍👍
Is that the full size XD with a 5inch barrel?
Yes
@@WHOTEEWHO Good deal... appreciate you!
@Life_Is_In_Jesus4ever 👍👍
Can it only be pulled out when you stand?
I dunno

A fluted barrel and lower speed ammo will help reduce heat buildup.
You need to be able to draw one-handed, and draw while seated. Just sayin.'
Do you think that it could handle the fnx 45 tactical
Probably. But you'd need some baggier pants
I can believe that
It looks nice but I don’t think I would trust it
Looks like a good idea to me dude I bet it's pricey though
I think they are pretty cheap
Check their website for pricing information.

Gimmick
Nope. I don’t like those holsters.
I find Blade-Tech much thinner and more secure. YMMV.😊
Try to draw while sitting down. Try to draw with one hand.
