I've had the pistol for a week or so but just received the holster today.
Glock 26 9mm with a Don Hume holster. I added the Pearse grip extension.

I've got that grip extension on my XD Sub too. Makes a world of difference without compromising concealability.

Also look into A&G grip extenders. Most of the Glocks will take their full-size brother's magazines; the A&G grip extenders cover the exposed magazine, giving you a better grip.

I have one for a G20 mag that I use in my G29. It's obviously counter-productive for the concealed part of concealed carry, but for some situations it's not bad to have a spare mag with extra capacity. When I stow my G29, I switch out the 29 mag for the 20 mag as the "house mag" or occasionally when traveling longer distances.

Glockmeister sells them -- http://glockmeister.com/catalog/product_info.php/cPath/62_86/products_id/60

This particular time I went with the agent 711. I'm a huge fan of Don Hume holsters simply because it is great quality with a reasonable price and you generally don't have to wait more than a week to get it.
This is my fourth Hume holster. All my others are H721 with the thumb strap. I just decided that with the Glock I would try one without the strap so I chose the Agent.
I should add that I have a Blackhawk Serpa on order that I kind of looking forward to. I have one of these for my XD's and really like it. I just don't think it conceals quite as well.
OK I'm Bud and I'm addicted to holsters.

I have the subcompact XD in 40 that has a grip extension and I also re-shaped a pearse extension for an XD to fit the magazine on my CZ 2075.
They don't make one for that gun currently. The pin and slides fit perfect but you need to change the angle of the top to fit the grip.

Congrats!

I had a Glock 26 for 8 years previously.

MNbud,
Yes the true subcompact Glocks are hard to beat. I have a 27 which is the same gun as yours 26 in a different caliber.
May I enitice you with some holster porn. I'll let it go cheap too.

Why the stubby mags? I would carry G17 Mags for the little sucker as my reloads - that is what I do with my 19.. Nothing like carrying almost a full box of ammo with you if the SHTF....

Cripes, I can hardly keep my pants up with the weight of this setup. Maybe I could go with a couple 33 round mags and some trainning wheels. :D
