I have a 'Tuck This' holster that's soft. It's comfy to wear and draws well. Re-holstering is another matter though. It's a comfortable holster to wear, but not my favorite. I need to look at some more holsters though.
I can reholster one-handed with Tuck This 2 worn just behind 3:00 (I wear that more than any other)... the 17+3 spare mag and stiff part do well enough to hold it open enough, but I have an extended barrel on my Glock 26, and that helps find the spot to get the "hole in one" along with practice/muscle memory

Re: The importance of reholstering?

Bad guy(s) in front of you and you want eyes on them while you clear jam/reload by reholstering because your other hand is busy holding flashlight/door/controlling bleeding or otherwise tied up or injured
I'd have sworn Paul Gomez posted a video here ...

Still, like I said, Primary is super-reliable "good-capacity" Glock with 19 rounds ready, and I carry 2 or 3 (or 4 sometimes) pistols in pocket holsters or elsewhere in case clearing/reloading is a problem ;-)

And when it becomes legal to carry at college again, if I went back to take some class, I might pocket carry a .32 in a pocket holster small enough to stay ultra-concealed if only "against school policy" and not be able to reholster eyes off/1-handed ... but it's better than being unarmed.

Re: The importance of reholstering?

I picked Important, due to reloading one-handed, I wouldn't call it "second only to being made at work" but ...
I only have one hand, so that's ONE handy way to reload (though there are others)

That said, I carry ONE (Primary) IWB which I can do that with, and 2 or 3 (or 4 sometimes) pistols in pocket holsters which I can not.
