I’ve been carrying a Shield but here lately I’ve been wanting to carry my Glock for increased mag capacity. I need some recs for good holsters to choose from.

I still have my milt spark vm2.

If you get leather, make sure it has a reinforced mouth. I was just looking at holsters today for a shield(how ironic) and a lot of them had no reinforced mouth. Garbage.

I have tried a ton of different holsters and N8 tacticsl is by far the most comfortable. Can carry a G19 all day. They are tuckable as well. They are reasonably priced as well.

Nah, you can make a leather holster that holds it's shape and holds the gun securely without reinforcing it. Leather is pretty durable. I prefer my concealed holsters just a single layer of leather. Sure, there are cheap holsters with cheap leather that do suck, but a single layer works fine.

I’ve found no one agrees on holsters, you just have to waste money until you find what you like.

Black Arch holsters are my favorite

An iwb leather holster without a reinforced mouth is garbage. It's not about retention, it's about reholstering. They collapse and its impossible to reholster without using 2 hands.

My wife really likes her G19. She just tosses it in her purse, though.

I like 2 belt clips on a 19. Comp tac mtac or similar.

I hip carry with a FOBUS holster. Doesnt seem to scratch my gun very much. Only downside is not tucking in your shirt. I may look like a bum but I am a well protected bum

Another vote for N8tactical. I carry my G19 like that with no issues and is very comfortable

I have their IWB for my G26, definitely the best hybrid I've come across to date.

I carry in a galco combat master OWB when I can wear shirt untucked or with a jacket.

I haven't figured out a good way to carry a full sized gun with a tucked in shirt. Kingtuck is the best that I've tried because it is the thinnest, but it still doesn't work very well without a baggy shirt.

We The People Holsters makes a pretty solid product. I’ve carried my G19 in this exact holster for a couple of years now and I have 0 complaints. Plus it’s made in the USA.

Help us out a little. Are you looking for leather or Kydex.
IWB or OWB?

I carry full kydex holsters. I do not like leather as it is prone to wear. I appendix carry either a Shield or Glock G45 depending on the day. I use SCK Holsters out of Walker,LA for my holsters. Really comfortable and well made, fair price, and quick turnaround.

Carry where ?
IWB, OWB or appendix ? Makes a big difference as far as a recommendation.

ETA: I've carried a G19 24/7 for 15 years in kydex OWB.

I use the DeSantis Peagsus Slim-Tuk IWB for my M&P 2.0 Compact (which is basically the same size and print as a G19). Nothing fancy but it gets the job done for $25 (and is also ambi too).
