For all you FN 5.7 fanatics take a look at this. I plan to place an order on this holster with the same specs and coloration you see in the image. I wanted to ask a few questions. Here is their web site too. https://www.reigntactical.com/home.html

1) What is the benefit of a paddle setup vs a belt setup
2) Cant? What are the advantages of different Cants?

Can a moderator move this thread to the correct location. I apologize, please accept my apologies.

1) Paddle does not have to go through belt loops, easier to take off or put on but paddle has a big chunk of cumbersome plastic which rubs your side since it clips to inside of belt!

2) Cant is achieved by switching 2 or so screws and thus allowing to gun/holster to be angled instead of being vertical facing down, to me a slight cant makes drawing gun easier!

Thanks vz58kid!

This is what I got, comes with belt loop attachment on holster in picture and the paddle attachment is laying next to it, which slips inside of belt and it is somewhat cumbersome since it is big!

Also you know the FN mark 2's wont fit standard FN Holster!

 

[BOOMSLANG]

Yeah, that's pretty sexy !

Well I had to purchase from another co. They don't make one for the USG. Bummer but found another really cool site that does.

Fobus Holster

I have a Fobus holster. Fits real good. The down side is they don't make mag holders yet.

 

[Fishinspot]

Is that fobus made specifically for the MK II? I like it.

Crossbreed makes a nice IWB for the Five Seven.

Yes, they do. Too bad they won't make one for the MKII.

Yes, they do. Too bad they won't make one for the MKII.

Well, I have one of those holsters and no pistol at the moment. But, I just did order a new MK II. I know the MK II is just a little bit wider than the predecessor. I check & see if it fits once the pistol arrives & get back to you.

I have a holster for the USG from Crossbreed. The MKII will "fit" if you make it, but there is too much excess rubbing to the point I had small pieces of holster come out when I pulled out the gun. I don't want to ruin the holster or the finish of the MKII

 

[JMike]

Thanks for that info.

Anyone want to buy a Crossbreed IWB holster for the Mark I, that has been used once? LOL? PM me.

I received the new MK II a few days ago. The pistol fits the Crossbreed I have just fine. It isn't too tight and goes in/out of the holster just as easily as any other pistol I own and with a similar holster. So I dunno, maybe I have a looser fit holster than others.

I contacted alien gear in regards to this problem. They said they were aware, just let them know which one you have.

I have a Bladetech Eclipse for my OWB and a Mernickle Custom IWB. The Mernickle is leather with a single spring steel belt clip and steel reinforced opening for positive re-holster inc while in the waistband. Both work great.

Fobus holsters scratch the finish and it makes or prints your 5.7 pistol. I perfer an inside the belt holster.

Uncle mikes makes a good little holster, which I use in the waist. Conceals well and comfortable for all day carry. And its super cheap.
