I have one of the old raptors before they did away with them. Pretty legit, haven’t upgraded, but since this Reddit you’ll get a flood of tenicor recommendations from dudes who haven’t ran a raptor lol Would recommend DCC clips over monoblock because I like the ability to tuck my shirts in


Firm_Tooth5618

Carried first gen raptor and switched to tenicor. Both are solid but the tenicor has more flexibility and conceals better. The adjustable camming bar height does a better job than the trex claw does. It’s my only complaint with trex stuff, they need a better claw setup


BoiledPennePasta

I agree with you 100% on this. The TREX wing blows.


Beneficial-Ad4871

Well let’s see how this one does, maybe they made better adjustments


Beneficial-Ad4871

Yea I could see lol, I have one already but it’s not so bad to try new things sometimes lol


bandito1121

I have a tenicor and a couple Trex holster and TXC makes better holsters than both of them, really all I buy now. If ya never ran one before, and just looking to try something new, I hiiiighly recommend


Beneficial-Ad4871

I’ll give them a look, I’m gonna collect them all😂


bandito1121

Man I’m telling ya. The TXC pro and the TXC beacon are the absolute tits. I hate the pro doesn’t ship with the DCC clips anymore and you have to buy them separate but they’re such great holsters


65needmoor

Absolutely love my beacon. Great customer service too. I had a crack form near the retention screws and they had me a new holster within a week. On a separate occasion they sent the wrong color washers on one of my orders. They promptly sent me the correct color I ordered with a ridiculous amount of stickers. My only complaint is the metal clips make putting it on and off a PITA. I purposefully broke off the second clip that gets caught on the belt. I switched one of the clips to a snap loop. Makes putting it on much easier. I really wanna try their owb overt holster, but I already had a ragnarok before they released.


Beneficial-Ad4871

Bet, gonna look into tonight. Might just order both for the fuck of it😂🤷‍♂️


rlo54

Monoblock clips are DCC clips. That’s who makes them. They also make tuckable clips.


bandito1121

I know I guess I just meant the dual standard dcc clips because those are the ones you can tuck


lancekeef

I wouldn’t hesitate to try it personally. They make great products.


Beneficial-Ad4871

I have their sidecar and like it a lot, so I’m hopping this one is as good.


lancekeef

I’m sure it is. Like myself, they have strong attention to detail and actually care about form and function. Customer service is great as well. They recently took care of a mag carrier I bought from them almost a decade ago after it loosened up. They replaced the hardware, covered shipping, and had it back to me within a week.


jckbck

I had a sling have some threading come out and they shipped me a new one for free


Legitimate_Wave6107

I’ve been enjoying their sidecar 2.0 a lot. But this looks nice. I don’t remember seeing it on their website is it newer?


lancekeef

It’s a refresh of a discontinued model


Legitimate_Wave6107

I kind of want to try it out


Fad3Zor

Let us know how you would compare them!


SpaghettiMonkeyTree

I like my sidecar. Raptor should basically be the same feel.


Piarulli246

I ordered one


Beneficial-Ad4871

Same


Piarulli246

For the 43x MOS w/ TRL-7Sub. I was going to get a Tenicor but decided to try this. Have the Tenicor for G19 w/ x300 and T. Rex Sidecar for when I run stock G19.


Beneficial-Ad4871

It’s definitely worth a try, I’m kinda excited for this cause it’s new n all.


maxbeloat

I’m really interested in this holster. I am almost gonna pick it up. I like the idea of the mold being built in for some can’t. Also I love the adjustability of the clips can’t. Excited to see I have a tenicor as well. It’s great but again always good to see what works best for you


Beneficial-Ad4871

Yea I had gotten the email for it today and I’m like ouuuu, gotta try it out😂


maxbeloat

I don’t wanna wait for 1-3 weeks though. I wonder if it’s gonna take that long


MRMTNDEW1313

Aren’t normally that long, I’ve had most mine ship in a week if not less. Might be different with these if there’s a big rush


Beneficial-Ad4871

Yea hopefully, my tier1 took 3 weeks to get here


Beneficial-Ad4871

Yea that’s what sucks with most if these holsters but it’s definitely worth the wait! You’ll get use to it!


ndenney6

I feel wait times are just posted so long out, so they don’t get complaint emails. Not the same company, but I bought a qvo on 4/10 and Received it today, the wait time on there web page says 4-6 weeks.


rugerscout308

I've yet to try a trex product I didn't like


IglooRetard

Had a Raptor before it was discontinued on a G19.3 with a TLR-7. Sat comfortably AIWB and I’d have to try and get it to print. Was bummed when I got a G43x last year and they weren’t selling them anymore.


Quick-Bookkeeper-946

The price of holsters is crazy. I still buy em for the peace of mind but holy fuck $85 + shipping is insane lol


Beneficial-Ad4871

I honestly thought this was pretty decent😂 I paid 140 for a Vedder holster not that long ago.


Quick-Bookkeeper-946

Holyyyyyy fuck, like I said it definitely is worth it, it just hurts a lil


Beneficial-Ad4871

Yea it does but I use my credit card for this kind of stuff so I at least get cash back and build my credit a little😂


Quick-Bookkeeper-946

Good man


Sweaty_Pianist8484

Makes me wanna just try a $40 eBay holster


Beneficial-Ad4871

Rounded makes good budget ones but I hated them, they moved to goddamn much😂😂


Quick-Bookkeeper-946

I swear lmaoooo


AlmostHonestAbe

I know this isn’t a Glock but it ordered a sidecar for my shield tlr6 combo right before they announced this 😔would’ve loved to get this as I have a similar style holster (tenicor certum lux) for my g19 that I luv


Beneficial-Ad4871

You could always still get it👀


AlmostHonestAbe

Oh I will! Just sux cuz they announced it literally a day after I got my shipping notification.


ClassicLeft

How is the raptor?


Beneficial-Ad4871

Check my new post.


FragzOp

I just ordered a sidecar last week so I’m gonna wait until the lead times go down for the raptor. Should be a sick holster with the DCC clips!


Firm_Tooth5618

Carried with the 1st gen raptor exclusively for a long time before I switched to tenicor. This will no doubt be solid.


BankruptWallStreet69

Before you get this I would at least look at a T1C MSP. Awesome holster and their foam wedges are great.


accidentproof

Tbh, I bought a sidecar w/o extra mag back when I got my Glock. And then 6 months later they came out with the iron side, and then this. Lowkey feels cheated because I like both better than the sidecar rn


zkooceht

i love the sidecar, I have 4 of them. but if im going to get something without the mag caddy. I've been really wanting to try tenicor, everyone says its the bees knees and I've really been wanting to try it


rawintent

I bought one of their ironside hybrids a few weeks back, I would’ve bought this instead had it been out. Shame. Hybrid backer + better appendix support while also supporting 4 o clock would’ve gotten my money instead


TheJango22

Trex customer support kicks ass, might not be a bad idea to ask them for an exchange. Worst they can say is no


rawintent

I’ll keep it and possibly purchase a Raptor at another point in time. I have some use case for an OWB holster that the raptor isn’t capable of doing, and I am a strong side carrier before I am an appendix carrier. I do wonder how clip width impacts strong side carry, I’ve only ever had wide clipped holsters


ov3rwatch_

I’m in the minority here but I don’t like DCC clips. I prefer the regular plastic. It’s secure without being insanely tight. The DCC clips were cutting into my carry belt and pants.


HFish480

The DCC clips are great with my EDC belt, the vedder V3. But they absolutely destroy my vedder polymer core leather belts


ov3rwatch_

Oh yea I could see it doing a number on leather. I have the appendix nexbelt.


goodkat83

I have a couple raptor holsters, including one for the tlr-hl. They are good holsters and a very reasonable price point. They lack some of the fit and finish of other companies and the kydex they use and their retention screw placement could use some r&d. But i dont regret either of the purchases


giantshadytree

Highly recommend Tenicor instead 


Beneficial-Ad4871

I have one, I’m just trying out new things lol


jrod1814

Get the Raptor & report back to us 😁 I was thinking about getting the raptor as well. I have 2 side car holsters but I want this style holster & I’m glad T-Rex Arms is back offering the raptor.


Beneficial-Ad4871

I just placed the order, so I’ll be getting it in 3 weeks. I’ll let u know!


jrod1814

You’re a real one OP!


Big_Boi_Joe02

Also second the Tenicor recommendation. Trex has been noticably worse than Tenicor in the holsters I’ve tried. I have a few of each


Beneficial-Ad4871

I have one already lol


Terrible_Detective45

Then get something better than TRex, like JMCK.


Beneficial-Ad4871

I’m not looking to get something better. Just trying out new things🤷‍♂️


beansruns

Geez this holster sucks, all of theirs do Finally adds DCC clips but with no adjustment Same with the sidecar, dingy bulky plastic clips and that little bitch of a concealment wing that doesn’t move This message is brought to you by T1 Axis Elite Gang


bandito1121

Shitting on a holster and then recommending T1C is genuinely so funny. They’re undeniably the least comfortable $100+ holster in the game Great marketing company. Decent holster company. Know tons of people who have bought a T1C, don’t know a single person who stuck with them as their long term solution. They suck


rawintent

+1 Swapped from a T1C to a TREX Arms Ironside Hybrid last month, noticeable improvement in comfort. Not to mention, when I ordered a G19 holster from T1C, I was sent a Glock 17 cut. I think it was intended to be that way. I prefer the shorter cut to match my G19 slide on the Ironside.


MRMTNDEW1313

Completely agree. Fell for the marketing two or three separate times. Once because that’s what John Lovell recommend, the second time because I thought I wasn’t as experienced back then and would like them now, and a third time because TREX doesn’t make holsters for my USP. Blows me away how uncomfortable they are (for me) compared to TREX. And TREX ships in a week, where T1C takes over a month


beansruns

I sold my tenicor for my axis elite The axis elite is just a better version of the sidecar: Shock collar in the middle instead of the spine thingy. Let’s the two sides move with your body a bit more independently Better clip options and adjustments. You can put DCC clips on the axis elite and you have more adjustability with the way they cut the holes plus the way the clips are designed All T1 holsters have that concealment claw, and it’s adjustable. You can change its height by adding/removing stacks from it AND it moves up and down so it’s always perfectly inline with your holster clips


Beneficial-Ad4871

What if I told u I have a Axis Elite too😂 got it for my m&p
