High Noon Bare Asset Holster? Your opinion

9mmGuy · Post by **9mmGuy** » Wed Mar 14, 2007 3:46 pm

Has anyone had any experience with these holsters? And if so what do you carry in it. I would not expect to much seeing how it is only 25 bucks.

here is the one in question: http://www.highnoonholsters.com/Product ... asset.html

Highnoon holsters are good quality. The Bare Asset is designed as a very thin IWB. I have not worn it but have worn the tuckable version Hidden Alley. Thin, comfortable, but will not reholster w/ one hand.
For its purpose I thik it well worth the money.
My .02 & some think it worth half that.

Is that a big problem?

If you just have one arm....then yes.

It is inconvenient at draw & fire practice depending on where you carry. 3:00 is easy to reach w/ your weak hand. 4:30 is tough.
2 of my good friends carry in soft holsters. Neither of them have a problem w/ it.
I like my kydex. All personal preferance. As you said, for $25.00 you can afford to try it & count any depreciation as rent. If you like it you have a quality holster very affordable.

9mmGuy,

I have a High Noon Hidden Ally for my S&W 6946 9mm. As Longtooth says, its a good quality holster...perhaps a bit thin...but comfortable....My only complaint is the "tuckable" flap is a bit thin and tends to bend and twist while you are wearing it and allows your gun to move around.

The moving is a characteristic of any really thin tuckable I have used whether w/ the leather or plastic clip. To anchor your carry tucked you will need to go to a C-TAC, Answer, Infidel tuckable, or such. These ar a few $$$$$$$$$$$$$s more though.

what does tuckable mean?

A holster that is "tuckable" means that you can tuck your shirt tail in over your gun.
Go to Comp-Tac.com & I think they have a video of the C-Tac w/ a shirt tucked in.
Tuckers "The Answer" is a pretty good picture to see how your shirt would tuck in over the gun & then behind the belt clips. tuckergunleather.com.

I'm not personally fond of clip-style IWBs, much prefer one with belt loops. The other thing that caught my eye on the Bare Asset was the company's turnaround time. 11-13 weeks on an inexpensive holster? Understandable if you're in the market for a Milt Sparks or other high-dollar, hand-made holster, but for a $25 solution?

The wait time does not apply to in stock items.
