Conceal carry holster for FN FNS 9C

[Shooter13]

I would prefer one for the small of my back (RH), my pastor has ask me to start carrying on a regular basic after the shooting in Lexington, he knows I practice and shoot a lot, I've got the elastic wrap around deal that I think would be really hard to get out in an emergency situation. Give me your thoughts please.
The shooting happened about 10 minutes from my home so this is a real concern.

Frankie,
I just got a
Galco IWB for my Sig P232, it is a left hand holster even though I am right handed. I wear it just behind my right hip and it works perfectly with the butt forward. Easy to draw and conceals easily.

Thanks, that is what I was thinking.

I find a Kyrodox(?) holster much more comfortable than leather. My advice is try both.

Good morning, take a look at JM Custom Kydex, they have been in business along time.

Eclipse holsters. I have a couple of them and really like them.

As @JEFFPPC said, you're going to have to try them.
Holsters are a very personal preference.

I use a DeSantis Yaque slide holster for my 1911 (4").

Most of my other ones are leather also from Urban Carry.
These include my Walther PPS (micro 9mm) and PPQ (full size 45ACP), H&K VP9, and FN 509C.

One of the things I'm doing is making sure they have an easy return, I'll try then buy. Thanks

I'll second this. I prefer a small, simple design and the Yaqui Slide fits the bill nicely. I've had several of them and it's just all around, hard to beat. But yeah, it's something that is up to the individual as much as anything. I also like how minimalist it is. I can leave the gun in the truck but leave the holster on my side without scaring anyone, if I go in a store with the holster showing. It kinda looks like some cell phone holsters. So, people don't seem to pay it much attention. Here's a link but you can find them quite a bit cheaper elsewhere. A good belt is something that is often overlooked for carrying. I've had custom leather belts made with a thin strip of stiff material stitched between the leather. Looks good but stays rigid so the gun doesn't sag it down.

I'd call them and ask. Each model can fit several models of guns. A little more expensive but Galco makes the same style also. Again, I'd call and ask them too.

Yaqui Slide Belt Holster

The renowned Yaqui Slide was ushered into the modern era of holster design in 1992 when Galco achieved yet another industry first: adding a set of independent tension screw adjustments, allowing for a custom fit to the firearm and micro-adjustment of the

Yeaaahhhhh....
Let us know how that works out for you....

I've got 6 other holsters sitting around waiting for the yard sale that just didn't work for me for one reason or another.

I've done it before for a different gun so it works. I always try to buy from that same company if I'm just testing IWB or OWB

When you buy that holster, send 185 dollars to Right to Bear and get insurance as well. It's about the only CCW insurance company that covers church security. And if you think I am silly, try paying an attorney to defend you for 12 years while the civil suit drags on....

Bullard makes some nice stuff if you want a slide. I have one of his for a Sig P365XL. His site says he makes one for your gun. Old time Texas quality. Unless he's changed, you can't get his stuff quickly. Since it's a Sunday go to meeting holster, you could go for something exotic like hippo leather.

Really like that!

Mine fits my 1911 as well as my P365. Notice how Bullard has positioned his belt loop so it sinches the gun up to your body for cocealment. If I were going to wear a gun as security at church, under a coat, I would choose a outside the waist band holster that positioned my gun so that I could quickly get a secure grip, which is not easy with the gun tight against your body. Also check around and see if you can practice with an instructor or law enforcement that can teach you about addressing a threat in a crowd of people. A church near me has security posted in key positions monitoring the outside in order to be aware of a threat as soon as possible.
