About Glock 49 Gen 6
Glock 49 Gen 6 Holster
HOW TO CHOOSE THE BEST HOLSTER FOR YOUR GLOCK 49 GEN 6
The Glock 49 Gen 6 blends a full-length Glock 17 slide with a compact Glock 19 frame. That means you get the sight radius and slide length of a duty pistol while keeping the shorter grip height of a compact. From a holster perspective, this hybrid setup changes how the gun carries. The longer slide affects comfort when seated, while the shorter grip improves concealment compared to a full-size frame.
When choosing a Glock 49 Gen 6 holster, stability and length support are key. The holster must properly support the extended slide while keeping the grip tucked inward. If you run an optic or light, the holster must be molded for that configuration. A properly fitted holster prevents shifting and ensures consistent draw mechanics with this crossover platform.
BEST GLOCK 49 GEN 6 IWB HOLSTER
Leather IWB Holster with Steel Clip – $89
A Glock 49 Gen 6 IWB holster provides strong concealment while supporting the longer slide profile. The Leather IWB Holster with Steel Clip keeps the pistol tight to the body and prevents outward grip rotation. Because the slide is longer than a Glock 19, ride height and cant adjustment are important for comfort.
The reinforced thumb break strap adds retention and durability, while the steel clip allows easy attachment without removing the belt. For concealed carry, a structured Glock 49 Gen 6 IWB holster offers the best balance between stability and discretion.
BEST GLOCK 49 GEN 6 OWB HOLSTER
Open Top Leather Belt Holster – $89
A Glock 49 Gen 6 OWB holster is often the most comfortable option due to the longer slide length. The Open Top Leather Belt Holster uses a pancake-style design that pulls the firearm close to the body while maintaining quick access. The extended slide distributes weight evenly along the belt.
For training or concealed carry under outerwear, a Glock 49 Gen 6 OWB holster provides natural presentation and consistent draw performance. It allows the longer slide to sit comfortably without adding unnecessary bulk.
BEST GLOCK 49 GEN 6 SHOULDER HOLSTER
Leather Shoulder Holster System – $215
A Glock 49 Gen 6 shoulder holster distributes the weight of the full-length slide across the shoulders rather than concentrating it at the waistband. The Leather Shoulder Holster System includes a double magazine carrier to balance the setup and maintain proper alignment.
With a longer slide, seated carry can sometimes feel restrictive in waistband configurations. A Glock 49 Gen 6 shoulder holster keeps the firearm accessible and stable during extended driving or layered clothing use.
