CZ P-10 c IWB holster
Apr 14th 2020
The CZ P-10c is a mid-size semi-automatic pistol introduced by Ceska Zbrojovka (CZUB) in 2017. This compact polymer-framed pistol is one of the most reliable concealed carrying pieces available on the market today.
If the P-10c is your choice for concealed carrying and personal protection, you should use a quality gun holster that is as dependable as the firearm. Let’s discuss our top CZ P10c holster selection and why we think it is the best choice for concealability, ease of access, secure retention, and comfort.
Why IWB Holsters?
Although there are many ways to carry a handgun concealed, the most common are all belt carrying methods: Inside the Waistband (IWB), Outside the Waistband (OWB), or paddle holsters.
OWB holsters provide the most comfort, but you may have to wear an additional layer to properly conceal them, such as a vest or a jacket, due to their design. Depending on the location, the weather, or the current season, it is not always a practical option and is therefore not recommended if you are primarily concerned about concealability.
A paddle holster is a convenient type of OWB holster that uses a paddle instead of belt loops. They are smaller than traditional OWB holsters, and the paddle system makes it easy to install and remove from your belt. However, they have the same issues as conventional OWB holsters if you want the best concealability possible.
IWB holsters are designed to be worn on the inside of your pants. They are the most concealable type of holster, as they allow for carrying a firearm without having to make too many changes in your wardrobe. All you need to carry an IWB holster is a comfortable pair of pants (you may have to wear one size higher than usual, to account for the holstered firearm) and a good belt to support the holster optionally, magazine carriers.
A good IWB holster also lets you adjust the ride height: the height at which your handgun rests, relative to the holster’s belt clip. The ideal ride height is a compromise; it should be high enough to let you get a good grip on your pistol before removing it from the holster while still being low enough to disappear under your clothing and provide enough concealment.
Experiment and make adjustments with your holster to find your ideal ride height. If needed, you may also have to experiment with adjusting your cant (the angle at which the handgun is oriented) to find out what best suits your needs.
Materials: Nylon, Leather, or Kydex?
Leather is the traditional gun holster material, in use since as long as there have been firearms. Although leather can be quite comfortable and even pleasant to look at, good quality leather holsters can be quite expensive. All types of leather require maintenance to preserve their shape and durability. Lack of proper care eventually leads to deformation or cracks, which can render a leather holster unsafe to use.
Nylon is a lightweight and inexpensive material used in various tactical equipment and related gear, such as magazine pouches, tactical vests, and more. Nylon holsters are generally cheap and often advertised as being “generic” or “one size fits most,” capable of accepting a wide range of different handguns.
While these traits may sound attractive to the budget-minded gun owner, you should avoid nylon holsters at all costs; they are not durable, and they do not securely retain your firearm. Nylon holsters designed for IWB carrying often feature very cheap belt loops and retention straps, which are likely to rip or even be torn off entirely.
Kydex is a type of thermoplastic, a plastic polymer material. Kydex starts life as sheet stocks of various thicknesses, which are moldable to any desired cuts and shapes. This material is rigid, abrasion-resistant, and does not fear sweat or moisture.
Because Kydex holsters are molded to your firearm’s exact shape, they provide the best and most secure retention. It is also a relatively inexpensive material; a high-quality Kydex holster will not break the bank. It makes sense for shooters of all walks of life to use Kydex as the material of choice for all of their gun holsters.
