Get the speed of Kydex with the comfort of leather. The Galco TacSlide® is a hybrid belt slide holster that pairs a precision-molded Kydex® holster pocket with a supportive premium steerhide backplate for a fast draw, confident retention, and all-day wearability. In Black and right-hand configuration, the TS228B model is built to fit select Glock® pistols (verify your exact model below), delivering a low-profile outside-the-waistband (OWB) solution that disappears under light cover garments.

Why Glock Owners Choose the Galco TacSlide
Hybrid Build = Speed + Comfort: A Kydex front locks in the pistol for crisp, consistent draws; a steerhide backer spreads pressure over a larger area for day-long comfort.
Slim, Belt-Slide Profile: Minimal bulk and widely spaced belt slots keep the holster tight to the body to reduce printing under T-shirts, polos, and light jackets.
Open-Top Access: No thumb break to slow you down—passive retention comes from the custom-molded Kydex pocket for smooth, reliable presentations.
Stable, Secure Ride: Dual slots anchor the holster along the beltline to prevent rocking or “flop,” improving consistency on the draw and reholster.
Ventilated Backplate: The leather backer helps buffer hot/cold slide contact, improves airflow, and adds comfort when seated or moving.
EDC-Ready Durability: Kydex resists sweat and weather; premium leather ages gracefully and contours to your body over time.
Fit Note: This TS228B variant is designed for select Glock models. If you run a weapon light, laser, optic (red-dot), or suppressor-height sights, confirm compatibility or choose an optic/light-ready model.

Built for Concealment, Stability & Speed
The TacSlide’s pancake-style slot spacing and curved backplate hug the body to keep the grip tucked in—exactly where concealment matters. The open-top design and defined sight track make the draw stroke fast and repeatable, while Kydex delivers a positive “click” during holstering. It’s a no-nonsense OWB that balances low profile with serious performance.
Ideal Use Cases
Concealed Carry (OWB): Low-printing under casual or business-casual attire.
Range & Training: Stable platform for reps, reloads, and movement drills.
Plainclothes / Off-Duty: Professional, durable rig with quick access.
Setup Tips for Best Results
Use a Quality Belt: A rigid 1.25–1.5" gun belt maximizes stability and retention.
Initial Break-In: Expect a snug fit—let the leather conform naturally; avoid oils/solvents that can over-soften.
Dry Practice First: Build safe mechanics with inert training ammo before live fire.
Placement: Experiment between 3–4 o’clock (right-hand) to balance concealment and access.
Care & Maintenance
Wipe the Kydex shell with a damp cloth; dry thoroughly.
Treat leather sparingly with a quality conditioner—do not over-oil.
Avoid extreme heat; do not store a loaded firearm in leather long-term.
Periodically inspect stitching, slots, and hardware.
Safety Reminders
Verify your pistol is unloaded when first fitting the holster.
Keep the trigger fully covered until you establish a full firing grip and begin the draw.
Follow all local, state, and federal laws regarding carry and transport.
