    Hello, I have been shopping for an O.C. holster since OK will be OC Nov 1 (if you have CCW permit) and none of the holster catalogs has the 30 SF as a size option. My IWB is a CB Supertuck, so it was custom made. Which other Glock pistol is the one I use for a size reference, the 26? Thanks, Ski

    I'm sorry. When you pick out a holster, it has a list of the guns that will fit it; Glock 30 SF is never listed, so is there another Glock that is real close to the Glock 30 that I can use to determine which holster will fit? I hope I explained it better.

    A Glock 30SF will fit in a Glock 30 holster...the SF is only a few millimeters difference.

    Other than that...no other Glock that I know of has the same dimensions as the G30 / G30SF.

    This link will take you to a page where you can look at all the specs on all the Glocks...

    Welcome to the forum "skiluvr03"!

    A G26 will be too small. Do they list a G29 holster? Maybe a G21 if it has an open bottom. Where are you looking? Did you check MikeP's website? http://defensiveholsters.com/

    Check out the vendors in this forum. There are at least two that I know of that can make you one if they don't already have one in stock.

    No, first I heard of Mike P's web site as I just joined, but I will definitely check it out! I will also look at that link for the dimensions. I think I usually see the 29 listed. I usually thank each of you individually for the info, but I'm on my phone and cant scroll back to see who said what, lol. Thanks for all the replies! Gotta hit the hay now, will touch base with you guys tomorrow

    A G30 (or G30SF) will fit in a holster made for a G21 (or G21SF).

    I have a 20,21,29,and 30 all sf frames. Any holster for the 29 or 30 will work. The 21 holster will not work because of the trigger guard area. At least not with my kydex holsters

    29/30 would be the same. A holster for a 21 is hit or miss mostly because of barrel length. Same reason a 26 won't always fit in holster for a 17, even though most of the gun is the same.

    Bottom line you need a holster for a 29/30. Have you tried fobus?

    Actually, I've been really liking the looks of some of the fobus holsters; I have a couple if them circled in my catalog to do more research on.

    From one okie to another, welcome!!! As an officer here in Oklahoma I open carry and conceal carry every day. For open carry I recommend a Blackhawk SERPA 2 holster or a custom molded kydex holster with adjustable retention/tension.

    I am not a fan of the Fobus holsters. They're made of cheap plastic. Kydex is more durable and won't remove the finish from your slide as fast as a Fobus will. For a few bucks more you can upgrade to a Blackhawk.

    Thank you for the welcome! It's always good to see a brother Okie. I have a lot of Officers around me, but they are Military; I'm guessing you are a LEO. Thanks for the information on Fobus; I thought they were kydex, but i was wondering why they were so cheap. I will definitely follow your advice and check out the Serpa. Thanks again!

    I don't have any experience with fobus, only that I haven't been able to locate a Blackhawk serpa for my 29, as I too prefer the Blackhawk. But I am certain that fobus makes a holster for 29/30

    I'm a southpaw also and I usually don't have too difficult a time finding holsters I need. www.gtdist.com has a good selection and so does www.lapolicegear.com. If you're in the OKC metro Special Ops and H&H are good sources also.
