Help: Don Hume Holsters

[Guest themark712]

I'm looking for a concealment holster for a Taurus PT-111. I've seen a couple from Don Hume that are relatively inexpensive and look very compact.

Here are a couple I'm looking at specifically:

Anybody have experience with these or other DH holsters?

I have three Don Hume J.I.T. Slides, for my Smith k frame, Sig 228, and Beretta Tomcat. The design pulls the grip close to your side to help with concealment. They're very good for the money...beat some more expensive holsters I've got.

I have that first one for my full size 1911, and I love it. You really can't beat it for the price.

Anybody else click on the original post links? It looked like DH had been hacked.

i use the jit slide holster for all of my handguns. they are one of the best ive found .

I use their IWB for my PT-145. It is pretty good for the money. If you have to unholster and reholster a lot you are not going to be happy with it because it does not have a metal band to keep the mouth open. But if you only plan to draw your weapon on rare occasions you should be pretty happy with it. It does move around a fair amount, but that makes it easy to shift when moving from a seated to standing position.

I like that, but I'm trying to get away from IWBs.

Will you, by chance, be going to the shoot in Spring Hill tomorrow? I'd like to take a look, but I don't want to put you to all the trouble of meeting when I'm not really ready to committ to buy.

HERO GEAR has a great selection of Don Hume holsters at very competitive prices. I bought one during their big sale for my friend.

[Marswolf]

Except for the Bianchi on the web belt, I use Humes these days. Good holsters at good prices. It's hard to find a shop that stocks them. I'd check with Hero Gear before ordering directly.

I am using the one in the first picture you posted for my S&W 4506-1(.45ACP). I absolutely love it. It hugs tight up against my body and even with the large size of my handgun, it is concealed nicely. I tried one like in your 2nd picture for the same gun and found that the weight of my gun tended to pull it down and away from my hip making it very uncomfortable. Went with the 1st one and will always have one like that. I highly recommend it. I paid $25 for it at a R&K show in Knoxville.

I use Don Hume IWB or JIT for my GLOCK 23 and 27. Works very well.

I'm a big fan of the 711 and 721 open-top models. Very comfortable and affordable.

sorry wont be there

Gonna go to the show in Smyrna tomorrow to see if anybody has some DHs.

We ordered a JIT slide for my wife's S&W #642 and it arrived in the mail today while we were at the TGO meet. I was pretty impressed with how well the holster tucks the revolver up against your side. Not bad at all for such an inexpensive piece of leather.

[Guest BG38357]

I have many Don Hume holsters, all work well.

[mac12]

I use the JIT Slide for my Glock. It keeps it high and tight if you have a good belt.

[Guest themark712]

I went to the show in Smyrna today, saw a JIT and one very similar to the H710 by another makes. Got the "H710" ... now I need a new belt. I haven't worn a belt regularly in about 15 years, and uh, well ... my belly doesn't like my current belts.

Also picked up a range bag ... new gun toys for me today!!

Thanks for all the help, fellas.
