The CZ 2075 RAMI, as a small compact all-metal model, has become popular mainly as a weapon for EDC and self-defense. You can easily hide it under a T-shirt, and it will be very inconspicuous in an IWB holster. Although it is small, its all-metal construction gives a feeling in the hand that you are holding a proper pistol.
Holsters for individual models
Holsters are manufactured for each model to measure according to a precise mold so that the firearms fit into them perfectly. In this category, you will find holsters only for the CZ 2075 Rami model.
With us, you will find holsters for standard factory models. Not many accessories that would change its profile enough to not fit into a standard holster are put on the CZ 2075 Rami.
In this article, we will focus on how to choose the ideal holster. We will discuss them in terms of material and method of carry.
Kydex or leather?
In our offer, you will find holsters made of kydex or leather. From our own experience and the feedback of our customers, we have concluded that these are the two most sensible materials for the production of pistol holsters.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of these two materials?
Kydex: highly functional material
Advantages:
-
Constant shape: It will not stretch, loosen, or compress. The holster remains open, and you can easily return the pistol to it with one hand.
-
Safety: The firearm is held firmly inside. You will recognize the correct seating by the characteristic "click" heard after insertion.
-
Fast draw: Kydex has only minimal resistance and does not stick to the firearm like leather. You only have to overcome the resistance in the first moment for the holster to expand at the point where it embraces the trigger guard; after that, it comes out completely smoothly. You will appreciate this in situations where seconds count.
-
Easy maintenance: Or rather, practically zero. Simply wipe the holster with a damp cloth.
-
"Indestructibility": The material resists sun, sweat, frost, oil, and most chemicals.
Disadvantages:
-
Discomfort: Hard plastic can press against you, and the larger the model, the more significantly you will feel it. The CZ 2075 Rami is so compact that the level of discomfort is minimal even in the case of kydex.
-
Firearm wear: Abrasion may occur in places where the firearm rubs against the holster (on the trigger guard and on the edges of the slide).
Our tip: Holsters from RH Holsters have a very smooth finish inside, which minimizes this issue.
Leather: aesthetics and classic
Advantages:
-
Comfort: The greatest benefit. Leather is a pleasant and soft material that adapts to the body and the firearm, and it does not press even if you have the firearm on your body all day.
-
Protects the firearm surface: It does not abrade the firearm like plastic.
-
Style: For many people, cold plastic is visually uninteresting and cold. Leather, on the other hand, looks stylish and elegant.
Disadvantages:
Maintenance: Leather as a natural material is malleable and adaptable, but it also works and requires proper care – treatment with special leather products so that it does not crack and dry out, or conversely cleaning if it absorbs sweat.
Flexibility: Over time, it may happen that you will need both hands when returning the pistol to the holster, because the leather becomes so soft that the opening "collapses" after drawing.
Requires time: A new holster can be tighter, and it then takes a longer time before it loosens and the firearm can be drawn and inserted easily. After a longer time, there is a risk of stretching and greater play.
Summary
Leather is a soft and pliable material that adapts well to the body. However, it also requires more maintenance and stretches more easily.
Kydex is the exact opposite; it has zero play, is rigid and constant. It requires almost no maintenance.
OWB or IWB?
Do you want to have the pistol on the outside of the waistband (OWB – outside the waistband) or on the inside of the pants (IWB – inside the waistband)? Each holster can be carried in only one of these ways.
IWB holsters guarantee maximum discrete carry. Given its compact dimensions, the CZ 2075 Rami is almost "invisible" in an IWB holster.
Choose according to personal preferences
The choice of a suitable holster does not depend only on facts; it is primarily about personal preferences. These include your relationship with individual materials and carry styles, how you use the firearm, as well as your body build and which holster is most comfortable for you to carry.
