I am looking for an OWB for my Kahr MK9 that is easy on/off - and I saw this Galco Yaqui Paddle and it looked good but just wanted some opinions?.!

Don't be seduced by easy on/easy off holsters. :nono1:

If its easy off for you, its also easy off in a struggle. If you're going to take on the responsibility of being an armed citizen, do it with self-defense in mind and get a good quality holster with belt loops. Paddles will not hold up in a struggle.

A Milt Sparks Summer Special or Executive Companion or VM2 will fill the need if you want to go IWB.

Don Hume, Galco, and Sparks all make good quality strong-side belt holsters for OWB.

I have the Don Hume leather OWB for my G19 and one for the G30. I don't know if it's the same model that Michael was referring to, but it was inexpensive and keeps a very firm grip on the gun.

You don't happen to have a picture or model # do you?

Thanks for the picture! I have a VM2 on order for my G27 - and a hidden ally from highnoon holsters for my Kahr but was looking for something to take off and put on easy OWB for rare occasions.

I have tried paddle holsters. I do not like them. They tend to be uncomfortable for me.
It does not take that long to put a good holster on your belt. Security is another issue.

Check out the Copy 2 from Hume, they have great deals Here:

Should be a little more secure than a paddle, the snaps aew 1 way.
I carried a G20 in one for a long time, very easy on / off.
