Can I 3:30 carry the Velo?
Posted by Optimal-Following-51@reddit | Firearms | View on Reddit | 8 comments
I have the Certum and have used it at 3:30 for a while now but wanted to start carrying with my light attached so i ordered the Velo without realizing it’s meant for appendix carry. I’ve had a little bit of trouble unholstering from 3:30 (skin pinching or just a bit tight) Is this holster a sunk cost for me or do you think it can work for 3:30?

Last time I ordered a Tenicore, I’m pretty sure there were multiple disclaimers during the process to make sure you don’t order the wrong holster. That’s after you choose position, gun, and light in the dropdown menus. Is it different now?

Might wanna consider the hlx sub for the p365.
Also, remove the wing and a bit closer basically a to a strong side holster

I decided against this holster for a different reason: i’m not comfortable with how much of a gap there is in the trigger guard area so from now on i’ll be carrying without a light

Just get a custom holster for your needs. Actually a lot cheaper that way in my experience

Fair enough. I will say, you chose the wrong light for the p365. You should have gotten the “sub” model as it’s made for the micro compact styles.
TLR7 hlx sub. It’s what I run and has a very small light gap, much more reasonable than what the full size HLX probably offers

Well when i bought it i was buying it for my echelon, but wanted the option to put it on my macro as well, but yes if i was buying for specifically my macro id go with the sub for sure, maybe in the future

It’s not designed for strong side carry. Could it work? Maybe. I imagine you might run into printing issues since you won’t have that stack the certum has. But I could be wrong.

i don’t have printing issues, just not as comfortable as my Certum obviously
