I ran an Eagle Industries soft drop leg holster back in 06-07 before BladeTech became common. I liked it, but it flopped around a fair bit when running. The new BladeTech/Safariland ones are far superior. However in my experience I find they sit way to low. A Dropleg holster is supposed to only sit a few inches below your belt line to clear plate carriers and chest rigs. It should only need one leg strap as the strap should sit nice and high up near your groin. This offers the most stability IMO.

Since your in Calgary, if you end up deciding you would rather have a belt mounted holster shoot me a PM. I can help you out by making you one.
