IWB Holster Review | Matt Postinger

Today my “Old Faithful” (warning they have a flash animation with audio on the homepage) Inside the waistband Holster arrived.
I ordered the kit that was already molded and needed to be assembled. With shipping it was $44.71. From order to shipping it took exactly 2 weeks to arrive. This is my second inside the waist band holster, this one for the Walther PPQ. I currently use a Crossbreed holster, for the PX4 and its great. However it was closer to $70 and took just over a month to arrive. I’ve had it for about six months and it has so far served me well. The beauty of the Old Faithful holster is obviously the price, but is it worth the assembly work?
The package arrived with the kydex sheath, leather backer and hardware kit. Everything looked fine.
So assembly of the holster, wasn’t exactly as easy as I hoped for. It took about an hour. Most of the time spent was working with these small leather anchors need to be set. You pound these in with a hammer. I had sort of a tough time getting this done, but managed.

The holster fit is tight and I do like how easily adjustable the tension is vs the Crossbreed.(just four screws) However I don’t like how the leather anchors weren’t already sunk in the leather. It would have make the experience so much better.
