TrexArms lists their SideCar (what we are reviewing today) as between 130 140. He just has his daddys money to skip the 5.11 and serpa phase and jumped straight to SCARs and PVS-31s.Īmazing how an airsoft kid from a wealthy cult family managed to become a grossly over-rated cult of personality huckster. If by the end of this article and video you are even remotely curious about appendix carry or about a new high comfort high performance holster go see these guys over at Trex Arms (link). He's every bad stereotype of Timmy Tacticool mashed up into one. Not actually showing where he gets his training from, claiming cool guy friends, while crap talking some of the biggest and most experienced names in the industry? Presenting himself as a "trainer for the pointy end of the Spear"? Talking about force on force training while omitting his absolute inability to perform during it? Saying you don't need to be mil/le to be an expert on shooting (absolutely true) but avoiding competition shooting?Ĭoming in last and getting DQed at the few competitions he does show up for? Speaking way outside of his lane of expertise?Īcting like a SOF expert with not a shred of mil experience?Īcting like an LE/SD expert with no shred of LE experience?ĭefending the above by saying he's not doing exactly that and he's just really good at shooting but has no comparative metric? The fanboying of poorly designed and built holsters? I don't think those things are necessary to have an opinion on a matter, but that seems to be what your question is hinting at. If it answers your question, the owner does not have a military / LEO background and is just a shooter. Holsters are like assholes and opinions though so others may differ. I only bought the one I did from a black friday sale. Overall I was underwhelmed and with the zillions of kydex makers out there I won't buy another. the old trex arms sidecar (Glock 19/45 only) 3. The new trex arms sidecar 2.0 holster (Glock 19/45 only) 2. Like many of you, I have spent too much money on trying to find 'the one' holster. It also came with a really shitty paddle attachment. Review for the new Trex-Arms sidecar 2.0 holster. I don't really care about the finish wear, though. The kydex was also not perfectly formed and it scraped off on the gun for a while and left some finish wear. It was too tight for my G35 and would sometimes "lock" it in, despite not having anything other than passive retention.
I have one of their holsters and it's honestly pretty shitty. Maybe he is now, I remember him catching a lot of flak for it when it was a newer company. He has been caught editing his videos to make his shooting faster and he does like to LARP as a trainer or something. Be sure to check out to see my current EDC setup here.His family is legitimately some weird cult. If carrying concealed inside the waist band appendix (AWIB), I highly recommend this holster. The magic is not just in the angles of the holster, but also in the claw on the side that pushes the holster in when it interfaces with your belt. Oftentimes I can get away with just wearing a t-shirt over my concealed holster. Furthermore, the two clip system keeps the holster from shifting which adds even more consistency for the initial purchase.įinally I wanted to praise T.Rex Arms for making a holster that conceals so well. The holster holds the gun up off the belt line for a very consistent and easy purchase on the grip. I do wish it had a flexible center, as my current setup has, however some people even prefer this more rigid setup. The angles of the kydex allow the holster to fall in the ‘right’ spots so sitting down and moving about is not uncomfortable. The Sidecar holster was far more comfortable than I imagined it would be. In all, I have 6 or 7 holsters made by T.Rex Arms to accommodate all kinds of setups (pistol lights, extra mags, different sized guns, etc.). Though I currently carry the Tier 1 holster (see review) for my everyday carry, I still recommend the T.Rex Arms ‘Sidecar’ for concealed carry and the ‘Ragnarok’ for tacti-cool war belt fun. The T.Rex Arms ‘Sidecar’ holster was one of the first appendix holsters I really fell in love with. The trouble with experience is that though it can be an effective teacher, it turns out to also be a very expensive one. Within a special, unmarked box, lies all the holsters I thought were going to be good ideas, until experience showed me differently.
I have a graveyard of holsters in my garage.
