Well, as I often say, my shoes will not fit your feet. So my carry options can vary vastly from what works for you.
A few follow up questions:
What is your frame size and build? Taller leaner guys seem to do better with IWB holsters than do more well rounded gents like myself.
I carry several glocks in Comp Tac padle holsters. Very comfortable, easy to put on and off and you can easily adjust the retention setting.
A good place to start is behind the strongside hip. I believe someone else called it the 4 oclock position. Practice your draw stroke from here and adjust accordingly. Make sure you also buy a way to carry an extra magazine and a flashlight and have night sights put on your G 23.
Holsters are like your wife's shoes, if you carry concealed long enough you will have some special purpose holsters, some old favorites and a bunch of others that sit in a box that are rarely used. In other words, don't feel bad if you buy a holster and it isn't all you thought it would be.
You asked what time it was and I told you how to build a watch.
My $.02, it's worth what you paid for it.

Re: Glock 23 CCW
I carry mine in any of several types: Fobus paddle, Serpa (with options for both belt and paddle included) IWB by High Noon Holsters, and a belt slide of my own manufacture, of 10 oz. leaher. All serve well depending on the circumstances. Most frequent is IWB as it's rarely cold enough to cover a belt holster with a coat or jacket. I don't wear the Guaybera or other untucked shirt either though that is a common Florida option if you don't carry IWB.

I've been using a Kramer Belt Scabbard for years and highly recommend them. Great quality and design.

Galco Summer comfort. It is really a knock off of a milt sparks. has held up well, even in the sweaty summer months.

I carry mine in a cheapie JBP holster inside the waistband on my hip. No issues with it, but I haven't tried the more expensive holsters.
