In todays article, Gunspot provides a full Comp-Tac International review.
This OWB holster is a popular design for range, open carry and various shooting sports.
Is it deserving of that popularity?
The Comp-Tac International holster proved to be an excellent rig for the Springfield Prodigy equipped with a red dot optic.
GunSpot gives it a thorough workout with time on the range.
Competitive shooting sports seem to be growing in popularity.
One of those is the Comp-Tac International Holster.
The holster’s drop offset allows you to get the rig to ride lower on your belt. The author found this gave him a faster, more comfortable draw.
The company vowed to build holsters with the end-user in mind, using excellent quality and competitive pricing.
That said, their holsters work seamlessly with High-Speed Gear Products.
The International Holster comprises an all-Kydex body that provides a perfect fit.
Visible in this photo is the generous relief cut in the holster design for virtually any kind of pistol optic you can mount on the Prodigy.
This ensures that you could get the desired draw and retention that you want.
Again, this allows you to set the Kydex holster up perfectly for your needs.
Fitting Choices
The International Holster ships with three mounting options that can be interchanged and swapped.
The International ships with several different methods of attachment that can be swapped and interchanged.
These are a paddle-style attachment, a belt slide and a drop offset attachment.
This drop offset piece goes in between the holster and the mounting method.
We believe the belt mount for the holster is the most popular mounting option for competitive shooters.
The author found the paddle attachment provided a secure and comfortable fit during testing.
The slide mount is adjustable to fit most belts.
The owner can adjust the width to accommodate belts from 1.5 to 2.25.
The belt width compatibility is adjusted by unscrewing the internal bar and moving it up or down.
The holster comes with a belt slide attachment that allows you to set it up with a neutral, forward or rearward tilt.
Removing it completely will allow for belts 2.25 in width.
The paddle mount is the perfect solution for anyone who wears multiple styles of pants.
The International is a fantastic holster, and I found it comfortable and useable in all configurations.
True Shot Gun Club has an excellent ammo selection online and competitive prices. They provided the ammo for this test of the Comp-Tac International holster.
When testing it, I didnt use what you might consider a gun belt.
The paddle attachment was my favorite of the two.
The Comp-Tac is a great holster.
The only negative I could think of would be pertaining to the drop offset attachment.
It works well and mounts up smoothly.
The problem was that the holster didnt stay fixed due to the weight of the gun.
It tended to bounce in and out, swaying as I moved.
Otherwise, Id stick to flush mounting either the belt slide or the paddle attachment.
Id like to thank True Shot Gun Club for helping us out with ammunition for this review.
We recommend this holster.
There are a lot of holster options on the market, and many of them are great choices.
Comp-Tac is paying attention to what customers want and how best to serve them.
Keep in mind that this is not a duty holster with retention designed to defeat a gun grab.
