Holster troubles.
I'm a left handed shooter. It is a curse. A curse.
So I'm looking for a hard style lefthanded holster for my new KSC P226r I'm thinking a Safari might be my only option only I've been unable to find a dealer for one in Canada. I also want it to be Tan/CB or multicam. So heres my questions. Do a really have any other options other than Safari? And for safari where can I get one and how does there system work. I see lots of numbers and codes I quite frankly don't understand.

First off, I'm a leftie too, and it aint a curse, but a gift, showing our capacity to adapt and prevail in a world designed by the inferior right-handed majority
Joke's aside, it depends on the type of holster you're looking for. Belt mounted, MOLLE, drop leg ? hardshell or soft ? You could go the Blackhawk Serpa way like I did (for my M9), and you also have these : https://www.sealsactiongear.com/cata...?idProduct=578 Uncle Mike universal molle https://www.sealsactiongear.com/cata...?idProduct=539 Seals 4.0 special ops Hope this helps. |

I was looking at a hard holster because before when I had a hi-capa I ran a soft holster and I couldn't leave the magazine in my gun else the holster would hit the mag release.
I'm worried that this will happen here. This is why I posted here I was looking for a hardshell holster. But if soft ones work aswell for the P226r I have no issues there. |

Cobalt, you can get left handed Serpa holsters. You can always ask Huang nicely to see if he can get you something in a lefty.

Blackhawk Serpa. Can be belt mounted with the paddle, Molle mounted to your rig or a drop-leg platform with the adapter. Orientation can be modified too, so it can be straight up, or at an angle.
I've been running it for the past 2 seasons, and I'm still very satisfied. |

buy a kydex sheet and make it yourself! will cost you less than a safarie land and you will be proud that you made your own hoster.
It's pretty easy to make if you have a minimum of skill with tools

I was hoping for a real holster. No offence to Huangs clones but for an extra 50 bucks or so real deal is worth it too me.

Kydex is not a ''huangs clone''. And you cant go more Real than making a custum holster that fit all your needs.

And I'll keep options open. Who is a good serpa dealer. I found some at local surplus store but nothing for lefties/tan/p226 and to be honest I don't want to shop there again.
EDIT: I found 911gear, but they seem to only serve LE.. and as much as that is my dream career. I'm not there yet.

SEALS Action Gear sells the complete BlackHawk Serpa line up, but the left handed holsters are special order.

I'm going to go with the serpa and paint it or wrap part of it in mcnett camo wrap.
Thank you everyone for your help! |

I had CDN_Stalker make me a Kydex MOLLE adapter for an originally-belt-mounted Safariland holster. Looks hella sweet. I'll snap a picture of it tonight.
I hate SERPAs because they tend to jam up if they get ANYTHING in their locking mechanism. I guess it depends what your playing style is, if you like to stay out of the dirt then go for it. |

kydex sheet can be found at http://www.knifekits.com/vcom/index.php?cPath=41_54
and you can make it fit almost anything from blackhawk quick disconnect to safarieland one. even you can make your own belt loop from kydex.
