Allie in Montana mentioned an amazing truly “minimalist” Kydex holster: The Zacchaeus Concealment Holster, made by Dale Fricke Holsters. It is particularly useful for those that like “Mexican Carry”, but that don’t want a gun to slip too deep down their pants. (That can be embarrassing, not to mention unsafe!) Having the triggerguard fully enclosed is particularly important for pistols that lack a thumb safety lever (and with or without the “safety in the trigger”) such as Glocks, FNPs, SIG P250s, and Springfield XDs. These clever little “holsters” are so small that they can be left on a loaded gun even if it is inside a pistol rug, in a pistol rack in your gun vault, or tucked in a glove box or “jockey box’ of a vehicle. I’m buying several of them, just for peace of mind with my Glocks and XDs.
