new EDC holster

Really thinking about the safariland als holster for my g22. Input? Currently use an aliengear iwb for my g22

Safariland are excellent. I carry a Glock 19 in an ALS 7378 7TS every day.

I've been testing an ALS holster for a few weeks, I kinda like it for OWB carry. It is very secure, yet very intuitive to draw from. #6378 comes with paddle and interchangeable belt loops. Running it in paddle variation right now, and I like it.

If you are refering to Safariland's Automatic Locking System (ALS®) it adds a little extra width to the holster.

I like to have the option of owb and iwb carry. Sold my blackhawk. So I think the als is my next.

I picked up a really nice IWB for 1911 at the NRA show.. N82 tactical professional model. It is VERY comfortable.

Now that I lost my love handles, I chose to change my carry style from OWB to IWB. I just ordered one of these holsters for my M&P 9C after seeing one in use. Can't wait to try it out.

Unless I'm missing something, the ALS holsters are OWB only.

It is.

GET IT! I carry my p229 in a 6378 ALS and it is my absolute favorite holster. The retention mechanism is the most natural I've ever used, as well as being safer than some of the other options (Blackhawk Serpa, I'm looking at you!)

I have the ALS 7TS 7378 for my M&P9 and it's a great holster, intuitive to use, but does not conceal well at all. I find it odd that it's called a "concealment holster." I was told by a guy who wrote a review of it on INGO that it is about 25% smaller and lighter than the 6378, and it's still kind of bulky. The ALS system definitely makes it too wide and ride too far away from the body for concealment with any shirt unless it's a really big shirt. Great for OWB carry and can be concealed fairly well under jackets, bubble vests, and thicker sport coats and such. But other than that, don't think you can cover it with a button down or t-shirt, especially not with the paddle attachment. Probably not a good choice for summer unless you're OCing.
