Looks cool I use a alpha X in 3 gun and have never had a problem but this does look kind of cool and may be a little bit more secure only thing is I use a els belt so would have to modify it to work
You've used them all, so if you had to choose just one Ghost holster, which one would you choose for an S2 for Carry/Production Optics? Is it still The One?
@@TheHumbleMarksman really they started from ultimate evo as is it advertised, which 16 years ago was Amadini custom ghost holster. After those years it still works as advertized. One of the most universal holsters for a price!
it is IPSC legal. It's not legal for USPSA CO - look at note 20 in the appendix - holster has to cover below 1/2" of the ejection port and "race holsters" are prohibited.
I just ordered a new Double Alpha DPR pro 2 holster for the Shadow 2, for Production division. I haven't done a Practical Pistol match in years and years, but I've done a few steel target matches more recently. I'm really looking forward to doing practical pistol again! I will do much better this time with my Shadow 2 than I did in the past with my Beretta 92fs, hopefully lol
As a open 3 gun shooter, that holster is way too open and exposed for me to feel comfortable using it. I like to shoot matches that have lots of movement and physicality in them, and even with that lock, I would worry about something happening to the pistol as I was moving. I currently am running a Hammer Armament Thunder holster and have also used Safariland ALS RDS holsters in the past.
Honestly, I am really ignorant on the topic of race guns, but I can’t understand what is the point of devoting so much time and money into guns and gear that are that would not be used in normal carry. I’ll admit, I am not very experienced in shooting; all those race gun shooters would probably destroy me even with using a basic gun like mine. Still, am trying to understand. Can someone educate me?
Race guns are fun - it's the equivalent of an F1 car to your civic. They do the same thing from 30000 feet but wildly differently. The skills absolutely transfer - anyone who's crushing it with a race gun can crush it with a bone stock carry gun. The speed of using race guns is significantly faster than what you get from a basic hand gun. The guns recover from recoil significantly faster so it puts such an emphasis on doing EVERYTHING faster - the margin for error becomes razor thin to compete. If you think shooting a static target on a static range is fun - competition is significantly more fun - the skills - in large part are applicable. The stress inoculation of learning to perform in front of other people and under self imposed pressure of time actually is shown to help warfighters and LEOs alike. Put simply - you won't be able to shoot at public ranges at a static target at 5-10 yards anymore once you compete. You realize just how not practical that form of practice is.
It is two completely different things that use the same tools. When it comes to competition, it is also a hobby for many. When it comes to competition and/or hobbies you can spend whatever you want. What is your hobby or passion? Do you spend money on that, where others might not? One could compete with a cheap setup or their concealed carry setup and do very well. Maybe not be competitive on a national or world level but definitely at a local level. Others choose equipment that makes them more confident in what they are trying to accomplish, for a given competition. The reason for holsters like this is to prevent a disqualification during competition but lets the user draw a gun quicker then a full retention holster. The think about competition and shooting sports like USPSA, IDPA and 3 Gun is it adds stress to shooting accurately that you do not find in normal static range shooting. Therefore, it has great benefits for those who concealed carry, if they do encounter a self defense situation.
@@iosonoi.7132 No. Competition guns are tuned to run on the edge. I would want something I know is 100% reliable. I would also never open carry Ever. You become a target when you open carry. In my opinion.
