Ordering a recluse holster for my cw380

[Evan]

Does anyone have experience with these? Ive been looking for a holster that doesnt print for awhile now and this looks like the one. It looks like it wont print and has a drawing advantage. Im considering getting the holster with the extra mag carrier but im conserned the mag will get in the way when drawing. Thoughts?

I have Recluse OS holsters for my P380 and CM9, but neither have the mag carrier option. If I need a replacement magazine in a hurry, having it in a strong side pocket makes no sense to me.

FWIW, I carry a spare magazine (on my weak side) in a nylon belt pouch made for a pocketknife. It has a Velcro closure that I can open easily with one hand. The other advantage is that it does not look like a mag carrier.

I just got the cw380 holster with the space for a mag myself. My pistol is in for repairs so I can't tell you how it will work yet. It fits really nicely in my back or front pocket and does not print. It looks just like a wallet. The trigger block seems like a great safety feature too. Hopefully I can give a better report later once my pistol returns.

I got my holster in the mail yesterday and i have to say i love this thing so far. It draws fast(for a pocket holster) and you can get your whole grip before you draw...

Did you get the standard or the clamshell one? I've been looking at the Recluse as the Blackhawk and Sticky work well but print more than I like

i've got the standard for all my pocket carry guns. they work great

I have there standard model but think you would be happy with either model. Im a fan of being able to get a full grip on a gun before drawing and recluse makes this easy. It kind of looks like there would be slightly more weight and extra leather to get in the way while drawing with the clam shell model which is why i personally went with the standard model. Also, you can use the standard model for guns with and without a laser, you would need two different clamshell model holsters tomdo this...

Fyi about printing, after using the holster for a few weeks the leather breaks in and shapes to the gun which does cause it to print slightly. It prints less than a sticky holster but it does still print.

Thanks for bringing up the Recluse; I was totally unfamiliar with them. Now I want to buy a new Kahr smaller than my cw9 so I can get one of these holsters. I really like the looks of the two sided clamshell.:)
