Hi all, I'm looking for a retention holster for my PT709. I'm not looking to conceal it, just make sure it stays put while jogging. I haven't seen anything I like yet so now I'm looking for opinions/reviews.
Thanks.

Yea, I've had a Fobus. Didn't like the no retension. Is there a web site or book I can get that lists what holsters fit besides the gun it's listed for?

Fobus is good for what it is and the price. Prefer it for CC though because it's tighter to my hip than my Serpa. I did find the Fobus are easily modified to be one of the best truck holsters ever, with help of some Blackhawk parts of course.

ETA, sorry about the blur. I took that pic for a friend at 2am after work. Dew fogged the lens.

There are several - mostly by manufacturer, but they can provide guidance.

If it fits in one brand, it should fit in another.

Also kydex can be heat modified/customized and is easily cut/trimmed to fit, and/or expanded with addition of a new section.
