Best Holster For XL Series Portables?

[BMDaug]

I’m looking for recommendations on holsters for the XL200P with big battery, no LTE. I’ve been carrying a 100P in an OEM shoulder holster… the one that covers the screen leaving only the speaker and top controls exposed.

Does anyone have experience with something similar for the 200P?

Thanks for reading!

I don't own one of these but it seems like a good holster

This case will accommodate regular, Power products Extended, and Harris Extended batteries through a series of pillows for a snug fit. Sure, there are cheaper "universal" cases out there, but would you put your cell phone in a 'universal' case?.

They look nice, but I really need an over the shoulder design that protects the screen and keypad. I’m looking for max protection in a shoulder sling style so I can clip the speaker mic to the shoulder strap.

Thanks,

Like for a radio strap?

Ya, and without the D swivel. I know it’s specific, but this one I got from New London for the 100P is freakin perfect. Totally obscures the keypad and LCD and has a thick piece of foam at the bottom to protect from drops. Nice leather too!

Thanks for your help!

You can get a OEM leather case specifically designed for a radio strap with D rings and no swivel.

Perfect! I guess I can just have my dealer order that. Anyone have a part number or pictures?

If I remember I'll get part number when I get to work

Also they make a standard battery case and extended one so make sure dealer gets the right one because obviously it will not fit

These look sweet and the price is definitely right! Anyone have experience with them? They look like they are kydex… anyone noticed any long term scratching when taking the radio in and out? It is exactly the level of cover I’m looking for!

Thanks for posting!

Another option is Caseguys. Very good quality, nice tight fit.

Ya, I like CaseGuys!! Problem is, they don’t seem to have an option for XL200 that covers the keypad and the screen. Ya I like to fiddle, but it’s really nice to be able to drop it in the holster and know that those parts are protected. Likewise, if I’m going to be handling the radio and using anything more than the top controls, I’d rather do so without a bulky case. I guess I’m alone in that!

I was quite happy with the form and fit of Zero9holsters. Its a pretty tight fit but I was so happy I bought 2 for my XG-100P (one was the Molle attachment, one was the Bladetech) and several other of their holsters for other radios that i own. I don't own an XL-200 but was very happy with all the other models I purchased. I don't use it everyday but I haven't run into any issues with scratching so far with any Kydex products I own.
