Anyone tried Galco Paddle Lite?

imported post

I want to buy the thing right now but I cannot find any reviews. In the NRA American Rifleman magazine it looks like it would ride very close to the body. On Galco's website, it looks like it also rides very high. I can't tell much about the leather itself, but it doesn't appear to be the smooth type (what's it called) like I am used to. Looks kind of like suede???

I like both the high and tight position and it looks OK as far as I can tell and since I may start doing some OC the thumbbreak is good for me. Hell it's only $33 delivered to me. When I think about how many purses my wife has bought in any given year, I should just order the thing and try it out. But I am just too damn frugal--I've already started my holster drawer collection. The thing is, I am waiting on a belt and that is making me wait on getting the Comp-Tac Minotaur, and in the mean time I am using an XD9 SOB holster so I can carry my new (to me) P229 DAK.

Shoot, I'll just wait and see if anyone here has tried it.

Thanks, guys!

I'm bumping this thread as I'm also curious if anyone has an opinion. Saw one in a mag and for the price you can't really beat it. Was looking one fomy P9 Kahr.

I corresponded a few times with Bill at Galco. He says it does ride pretty high and tight for a paddle. I can't really tell from the pics if I would like the finish on it. For now, I went ahead and got a Cop Slot belt holster from them. Should be here in a week or so.

I'm kind of leary of paddles after buying a stinker Fobus which is so far from concealable it is laughable--threw it in the closet (still better than the XD Gear holster, though).

For the price of that Galco Paddle Lite, though, I may still just go ahead and get it.

I'll post if I do.
