Overview

Built for outside-the-waistband carry, this holster gives the user three carry positions in one design: vertical draw, horizontal for small-of-back use, and cross-draw. The thumb break adds a secure retention point, while the steerhide construction keeps the profile suited to everyday belt carry and range or field use. It is intended for a wide list of compatible handgun models, including several Glock, Ruger, Smith & Wesson, Sig Sauer, Springfield, and Taurus frames, along with similar sizes. For left-handed users seeking a versatile OWB option, it offers flexibility without adding unnecessary complexity.

Considerations & Trade-offs

  • Fit is listed for a range of specific handgun models and similar frames, so compatibility should be verified carefully before purchase.
  • The thumb break adds retention, which can be useful for carry, but it also introduces an extra step during the draw.
