Speed holster sold by Rohrbaugh
« on: June 21, 2009, 09:04:47 PM »
I have been looking at holsters on the internet for my new R9, which is on order.  Has anyone purchased the speed scabbard (style 086) sold by Rohrbaugh, and if so, how do you like it?

I have the mini scabbard (019) and my only complaint is there is no sweat gaurd between my body and the slide/grip.

I have the thumb-break mini slide (085), and I think it's excellent.  Snug fit, good retention with the thumb break, and when I park it at about 4 o'clock it's almost invisible underneath a T-shirt.  I also have a terrific Hedley for back pocket carry, but as long as my clothing permits OWB carry, I find OWB more comfortable.  MARK

I purchased the 086 through Rohrbaugh and wear it all the time. I am a thin guy and wear jeans; pocket holsters do not appeal to me as much as a conventional strong side scabbard.

I endorse and recommend the 086 holster without hesitation.

I'm going to have to look at this 086!    :)    :)

The R9 fits like a glove in the 086 and leans forward at an angle of about 40 degrees for speedy access.

I did look at the 086 on the Rohrbaugh web site.  Looks like I may have some interest.   :)    :)

That's good because I received a recent email from an 086 holster and he has a lot of interest in you too.

I am not big on avatars and my silliness is dry and shaken (not stirred).

I am English heritage and like understatement for which the avoidance of avatars serves my purpose.
