Anybody on here have one? I am seriously interested in one and am about ready to pick one up but want some real person reviews. All the reviews I can find are raving about them, and honestly I can not find one negative review anywhere. That makes me wonder some...

I have the original version and it is really comfortable as others have stated when you do the online search and reviews. I find that the original is good to use on various same sized pistols, especially for the pistols where holsters are hard to find.

I haven't tried that particular holster. However, I am not a fan of holsters with single metal clip attachment to the belt. In my experience, they all twist in use and present a random grip angle for the draw. I prefer holsters with two clips, slots, loops or whatevers to secure them to the belt.

They look comfortable no doubt but having to twist the gun in the draw stroke is not an idea I'm too keen on. That and as Excaliber said, where the single clip is located looks like it would make the whole rig pretty thick. Especially when carrying a Block...I mean Glock.

I bought one of the original N82 holsters it is comfortable, reholstering is a real problem.

After looking at the Professional model I'll stick with my Crossbreed.

Comfort and reholstering were two different concerns of mine. I am not really to concerned with reholstering only because IF I have to draw my weapon, then I am probably not to worried about putting it back real fast. Just my thoughts.

I was worried about how thick it is with where the belt clip is located, but I do like how it covers the whole gun from touching the skin. Which is my number one concern.

I think you're underestimating the value of the ability to reholster smoothly and reliably.

Trying to manage that with a floppy holster using two hands while a crowd gathers after a shooting at the same time as trying to use your cell phone makes for a great comedy routine, but isn't half as funny in a real post shooting situation.

You might consider Kholster if you like the full backside cover of weapon from any skin/body contact. I have a couple of their Crescents (Taurus MilPro & Slim) and a Little Moon (Taurus Slim) for my CCW's that are very comfortable, well made and relatively inexpensive.

However, I would consider a N82 Professional for my new M&P40C - except for the cost, although it would probably work with the Taurus MilPro's also.

Thank you. That is a nice looking holster. I will look further into those as well. Like that cresent.

I have the original in both Full Size and Compact. Both are very comfortable and easy to take on and off when necessary.

I'd prefer the professional only due to the swivel of the belt clip. re holstering is not a priority for me.

Unfortunately, the professional is limited to certain models of firearms.

I like it so much, my next firearm purchase may be affected by which N82 professional is available for.

I found the local DFW guy that reps these at the last gun show. It is a very nice holster, but sorry to say, I will order what I need from the manufacter directly. Not sure if the guy was just having a bad day at the show, but he was very rude. So I will take my business elsewhere for the time being.

I have the original shirt tuck for a full size 9mm. I love it. It holds the gun securely, covers the trigger, and is extremely comfortable even in very hot weather. I have several IWB and OWB holsters and this is my favorite. The only negatives I have heard is from people using the plastic pro model as I guess the unholstering twist is difficult to get used to. Can't go wrong with the original.

I got one for my lc9 and like it a lot. Very comfortable against the skin. No problem on drawing or reholstering. I do practice both quite a bit though. On a side note- I originally ordered the regular online then the next morning decided I wanted the pro and called them first thing in the Am. She changed my order and shipped it out the same day instead of making me wait the several weeks or whatever. Got it in three days.

I've had the professional model for a while and it carries my m&p compact 40 VERY well. I've not noticed any excessive additional bulk. I have a lack of backside and subsequent sagging issue, I find that the design if this holster absolutely helps to prevent this sag. I could be mistaken, but I believe that it's the placement if the clip directly on the holster that helps keep it up.
