Did ya make any decisions on a holster? Having worn my t rex arms sidecar for some time now, i dont know that i would ever go back to strongside behind the hip carry. Centerline carry with a pistol and mag in one rig has proven much more practical and comfortable. And concealable.
Nice package ya got there! Haha yeah i looked on the site this am and did not see any appendix rigs. How much is it? How does it conceal without any claw or what not? Guessing it molds around body with the leather middle?
They also have clips available that are angled at 15 degrees to push the the grip in towards your body to reduce potential printing. Its basically their version/answer to what the t rex raptor claw does but supposed to be more ergonomical/comfortable in your waist for carry.
I have read/heard good things about this new holster from stealthgear holsters. I have used their iwb holsters and they make quality and comfortable gear. I actually ordered one of these appendix pistol/mag holsters just now. They have a 30 day return period which is nice. Their holsters have...

Did u decide? In answer to your question. Yes i have experience with the sidecar (only 2 weeks so far). I recently got a trex sidecar for a 19 and it seems to be more comfortable than other rigs. I like having a spare mag and gun in one holster and the speed of draw.
Alien gear is a pretty good set up for the $ and if u carry a variety of guns, its a nice perk to swap shells as opposed to dropping $100 per holster. However, no comparison in quality and fit between alien and an onyx. Check back in this thread with a "first impressions" of the onyx. Heck...
My experience with retention out of the box sounds completely opposite of yours. If anything, I think the retention is too much, in a good way of course (I like tight retention). I dont see myself looking any farther for a edc holster.
WOW!!!! THATS ALL I CAN SAY! I AM IN HOLSTER HEAVEN... haha. So, this onyx holster is AMAZING in everyway. Soooooo worth the money. Btw, the retention is super out of the box for me and my wife's glocks (it even passes the shake it upside down test with a full mag loaded, It does not even begin...
