I have carried a 23 for 14 years. .40 cal. I've actually had to use it twice on duty. Numerous trading exercises, it ALWAYS went boom when needed it to, and when I really needed it. If someone shoots their leg, it ain't the gun.

I was only joking,I don't know anything about the holsters except what has been said in this thread,but honestly there does seem to fair number of the 40 cal Glocks that have blown all to pieces.I think I've never seen one blown that wasn't a 40 cal.On the other hand I know there are a lot of 40's in service as well.

You misspelled "carry". Only queers "carry" Glocks.
Real men tote iron, as in 1911 iron.

I swap back and forth between a Glock 19 and XDs9. Generally if I'm in the woods its going to be the 19

in the woods i generally have an s&w m&p .40 fs in a serpa holster (yes, the same one the da narc shot himself in the foot with in front of the high school classroom). i don't want it jostling loose and having to search for it in overgrown cutover, bottom of a duck hole, etc. if not the fs, then .40 shield in a wright owb leather holster that grips it pretty tight.

I thought you carried a single action in the woods? You were the one that convinced me to try a cross draw holster, and you were right. It's much more comfortable.

I do still carry the 45 Colt in the woods.
The 1911 is my everyday companion.

For those of you who think nothing compares to a Glock, this read paints a little different picture for the Canik.

Polymer pistol showdown.

I'll reserve my judgement for the next 20 years.I'm sorry if I don't trust the quality control of a gun made in Turkey as much as one made in Austria. It's the equivalent of saying a $300 Turkish made O/U is just as good as a $3000 Beretta just because it fired a few hundred rounds without a failure.

I'll trust those made by Springfield armory over anywhere else.

As in a 1911?
