Has anyone used the Stone Glacier Hydro holster for Nalgene bottles? I have watched the video of the installation and can't decide if I would like the location or not. Any thoughts? Thanks.

i didnt try it but didnt like the looks so i went with a mystery ranch one on my SG

just have to watch it as you can sling out the bottle taking the pack off and laying it on the ground but it has worked just perfect for me

i run it and the large older pouch on my left side and have room with the large belt

I like mine so far. I haven't played with adjusting the location yet or if you can? It feels a bit in the way or too far forward at first but I got used to it fast. Lost my nalgene so ran it with a gas station water bottle. It holds the thin neck just fine.

FYI it doesn't fit the odd shaped ozark trails wanna be nalgene. I was bummed as those are lighter and cheaper.

Didn't think I was going to like it at all, thought it might flop around whereas my kifaru is on my belt...but it is working fine installed just like the video instructs. It can be a bit of trouble getting the bottle back in, but I figured out a way to do it most of the time one handed. I use a kleen kanteen 40 oz ss and it fits right in, as does a larger size gatoraid bottle. I have not tried the SG pack moving through thick stuff yet. I think I would rather have it on the belt of my x-frame if it catches in brush.

I found the flat shape too annoying to stick a nalgene bottle in single handed and awkward under the arm with a round bottle. Tough to tie down so it doesn't flop around too. I've figured out a couple ways to make it work, including using flexible bottles and rigging lower and further back. Usually just use a modified Eagle Creek holster I bought for $7 at Sportsmans Warehouse mounted directly on the belt though. Simple is best.
