Better Gear for Cheaper
Glocks are great guns for hunters, law enforcement, those of you needing self-defense or even beginners. You’ll need a proper way to carry it though, leaving you with shoulder holsters or hip holsters.
I found the shoulder holsters to be more useful for me, with the top pick being the Gould & Goodrich Gold Line Shoulder Holster. It’s made just for Glocks, so you can be sure it’ll fit whatever model you’ve got very securely, while saying comfortable on your body.

Shoulder holsters are a popular carry method for handguns among police officers, active duty military and everyday citizens. They come in many different styles and types to fit your needs, but it’s not just their versatility that makes them popular.
There are a few reasons why they’re so preferred, and why you see them on just about every police show on television. The most obvious reason is due to the concealment provided.
You can draw the weapon without being too noticeable, so if there are any special conditions where you need to draw quickly, you’ll be able to.
Shoulder holsters are also practical, since any wearer can keep it on even while sitting. This is different from the belt holster that may make it difficult to remove your weapon if you’re seated or crouching down. All you have to do is reach back and aim, making them perfect for any situation.
People often have trouble making their shoulder holster feel comfortable, but this is mainly because it’s not adjusted or worn correctly. If you don’t want to compromise concealment or drawing speed, these steps will help you wear it right.
There are many reasons to get yourself a shoulder holster when you’ve got a Glock, which I’ve listed here.
