CYA Supply Co. Base IWB Concealed Carry Holster Veteran Owned Made in USA - Fits

The media could not be loaded.  This is a 2 year review on my second CYA Holster and update as I just bought this because I unfortunately lost my first one.First of all let me say I have a bag full of holsters that I like for various reasons and I do not think there is a one for all type holster but this is the closest to that need. I just keep coming back to it.Pros:Slim profile, noticeably slimmer than my We The People Kydex holsterHugs the body like a properly fitting IWB should, it offers reduced printingHigh canted "combat" grip that I just love. It makes it really easy to grip and index the full grip of my firearm and helps in the reholstering.Adjustable trigger guard retentionFull barrel coverage with a drainage cutSweat guardThe holster covers the magazine release; for an IWB this is essential for me for a OWB it would be stupid but it works for an IWBDid I mention how slim it is ?Very comfortable or at least as comfortable as a plastic holster can beEasy to put on and take off, requires no permanent attachment to beltVery good audible re-holstering clickNo damage to my firearm or marring from plasticConsMy first holster developed stress cracks at the belt clip attachment point, I was really annoyed but it still worked just fine so I still occasionally wore it.It is not the most secure holster you can buy, its a clip, so if it comes off your belt there is a good chance that the holster can come out so I wouldnt be doing any backflips anytime soon (not that I can but if I could... you know)Overall I just keep coming back to this holster. I currently have in my rotation this holster which I would call my "nearly every day carry" a JM4 Tactical Roughneck for Deep concealment, a Desantis Mini Scabard for OWB in the woods / hiking / hunting / winter concealment, We the People Kydex holster with loops instead of a clip for I would say "medium concealment with maximum security" and a Sneaky Pete for when I have to take my gun off and on a lot.Overall, I think the CYA is the best bang for your buck. If you can really only afford one holster, are just starting to conceal carry, or really looking for that one do it all holster I think this is it and the price is right at under 40 bucks.One thing to note about using holsters; there is a misconception that kydex or plastic holsters are uncomfortable; I notice hardly any difference between a plastic or kydex holster and a leather or neoprene / nylon style holster ... Its a heavy metal object its not going to be comfortable. The key to any good fit of a IWB holster or holster in general is to TRY IT OUT IN DIFFERENT PLACES ! Every body is built a bit different, some people have less padding in certain areas or more in others or bend one way or another. I would say start at the 4 oclock position, try it out for a week (unless it is immediately uncomfortable then move it) then I would move it a little closer to 330 or 430 -530 depending on your body type. I cant help you if carry in the front because I dont but if you are IWB right or left hand carrying I recommend you try different spots and of course a good thick sturdy gun belt and a long enough shirt even if you have to go to the Big and Tall section and grab a tall hoodie and a tall button up, it will be worth it.

This is my everyday holster for my Glock 23 (yes, girls do like to carry more than revolvers). It's comfortable and I feel more confident with the trigger guarded than with the popular "band" or "corset" holsters. Great quality and fit.

I have seen complaints that this holster deactivates the safety when the pistol is drawn. I have also seen a complaint that the tension screw fell out. Let me address both of those. When I get a new holster with tension screws the first thing I do is to take out the tension screws, apply red Loctite, and then adjust the tension where I want it. This prevents the tension from changing or the screws from falling out. And properly adjusting the tension will also prevent the holster from deactivating the safety. That said, this looks like a quality holster for the price. It was overly tight out of the box, but once the tension is adjusted (and loctited) the pistol is retained well but drawing is easy and smooth. It protects the metal slide from coming in contact with the skin. It is comfortable to wear, and the clip holds a 1.5" belt securely. In short, it does exactly what you want an iwb holster to do.

1. Got it super quick.2. There are a lot of tiny details that other holsters are lacking. Workmanship was superb.3. Fits tight.4. The clip has an outward bend making it really easy to grab and get the clip off my belt and out of my waistband (like when I get back in my car).5. This is a must for a tiny gun like the Hellcat or P365.6. Is it worth the almost 40 bucks? Well I guess that is what they run nowadays. Perhaps if I had one of these years ago I wouldn't own 5 million other holsters, looking for that perfect fit.

This is the 5th holster I've bought on my quest to find a comfortable concealed carry set up and it's my favorite so far. The fit and finish is spot on. The edges are very smooth so nothing scrapes on my side. The adjustable cant works very well with a ccw belt. The retention has a nice loud click and holds on tight. Also if you carry a Glock like I do, the belt clip is nice. It's much safer to unclip the holster from your belt, re-holster your pistol and then put it back on. There's no risk of negligent discharge due to a foreign object (like your Hawaiian shirt) getting into the trigger guard while re-holstering the weapon and I'm all about safety. If there's anything I can do to reduce the possibility of accidently shooting my own ass, then that's a win in my book. Last but not least is the price, very affordable. 👍

The holster it's self is awesome. Slim and fits perfect. Only reason for not giving it 5 stars is the belt clip. Unless you have a fairly thick belt, you're likely to draw the holster out of your waistband without your firearm coming out when you attempt to draw your gun. It needs to hold just a little more securely for me to be totally confident that the holster will stay where it needs to when I draw. I tried adjusting the screws and it helped somewhat. With a thick leather gun belt, no issues at all. With a 1-1/2" riggers belt or better BDU style belt, you may have problems.
