Overview
Built for belt carry, this holster combines a multifit design with an added retention strap for secure everyday use in the field or around town. Its three belt loops support two carry positions, giving you the option of a quicker reaction draw or a back-cant setup that can be more convenient when seated or driving. The molded leather construction is contoured for the pistol and accommodates taller suppressor sights, while the handfinished interior is intended to help protect the pistol’s bluing. Details such as the thumb break, double stitching, and extra barrel room round out a practical, purpose-driven carry option for hunters and shooters who want secure access without unnecessary bulk.

Considerations & Trade-offs
- The holster is designed for multifit use, so fit and carry feel may vary by pistol rather than being tailored to one specific model.
- Its retention strap and thumb break add security, but they also introduce an extra step on the draw compared with an open-top design.
- The two cant options are useful for different carry situations, but choosing the right position may take some adjustment to match your belt setup and use case.
- The leather construction and handfinished interior are intended to be comfortable and protective, but they may require more care than synthetic holsters.
