Remora Holsters

[Gawernator]

Do people still use remora holsters and that style really? I have a couple of them at least I got back in like 2014.. they were cheap and technically do work but I’d always use kydex unless it’s just walking outside for a little while. I still have one for my P2000SK and if you’re going to go in the front yard in sweatpants they work.

But I do feel like I don’t hear or see that style of holster much anymore so maybe people figured out they kinda suck lol - despite being well made it’s just not as secure even with the RFT

I have a sticky holster that came with one of my guns, but it's not a Remora. I've used it for brief periods around the house, but the whole notion doesn't sit well with me. I'm somewhat active, and don't trust that style of holster will stay in place.

The bigger problem with the Remora Holster is the name. The Remora is a freeloading little hitchhiker fish that attaches itself to its host. It's like the hobo on the freeway exit with the "will ride along for food" sign. Sometimes the Remora hides out in the butt holes of its host fish. It's a freeloading butt hole intruder. I just don't want to promote that way of life. But I suppose in this era of "don't ask, don't tell" and "concealed means concealed," you could rock the Remora and no one would ever know.

New study reveals fish are 'hitchhiking' in manta ray 'buttholes'

Small fish clinging to sharks, whales, and rays for a free ride might be doing more than just hitchhiking.

I have sticky holsters of a similar style. I use them for pocket carry in shorts, jackets and my bathrobe. Less of a holster than a pocket liner.

even if it's completely safe I like the idea of a hard holster blocking the trigger. For a double action with hammer down it's probably not a big deal but my carry gun has a 3.5 lb trigger

I've been using this when not carrying appendix, the clip draw trigger guard https://www.amazon.com/Trigger-Sheath-Guard-Holster-Paracord/dp/B0CM6SY8W8?crid=OIX7MUCEPGUW&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.a-AZnxBBeSJ56F4jkCf3NjxP4OKDJuN4RoGYpcwW7nJIdeyBjf-Yc5YDdH01CMawMdym8TA2BZ4Ixcu0ecQY57DseMGSGo4M65E7F3jLadw5Oqh37Ix5Of23iW_-hzSi_Ed5Ny879cSC9X8aSQ4gOnsd919GujmwcwRtH05Z0Q3zOgu11v8HBS28B8PxWcmN0BGATPWOa16A8q1JQ-h0u5ufXLwRqqRvh9UYqUh9LY8UKsosm2mJXtA99tV3bCPhoij1BQ6j-xp4-3XScWJH3h-qM6_wBOIK9X7JIPu3kHc.0aA84gG4ySeiKNHq9N0Tx4CTvFU8HcFgPbTy_2ib724&dib_tag=se&keywords=trigger+guard+kydex&qid=1791734378&sprefix=trigger+guard+kyde,aps,230&sr=8-10&th=1

According to forum boomers your modified trigger means you’ll be instantly charged and convicted if you ever use it because ….. (nobody knows why)

for off body carry you can tie the cord to the pack so just pull to unholster but you can also just push it off with your thumb

the funny thing with that is that Massad Ayoob who everyone quotes carries a Wilson Combat Beretta with a modified trigger.

Even massad only points out a case from the early 80’s that was riddled with boomer logic and it was a political anti cop case and the guy was not guilty anyways… I don’t think he’s shown any case in the last 30 years where the trigger was a factor

what everyone glosses over is why it would matter, like if your gun goes off without you pressing the trigger because you modified it and it kills someone, it's relevant to the case. If you modify the trigger so that it works better and you can run the gun a tiny bit better it's not really relevant to the case. At a certain point you could call a bad oem trigger negligence honestly.

Because that would be logical and factual so how can a forum boomer scare you with that?
