Overview
Built for users who want one holster to cover multiple carry setups, this model can switch between inside-the-waistband and outside-the-waistband use in less than 30 seconds with a simple screwdriver adjustment. The Pinch Retention Device adds a tactile click at the trigger guard, giving a clear indication that the handgun is fully holstered. A full grain leather exterior, suede lining, and injection-molded interior are paired for a snug, exact fit, while the included OWB belt loops, IWB adapters, J-hook, wedge device, and foam AIWB pad provide several carry options.

Considerations & Trade-offs
- Convertible IWB/OWB use adds versatility, but changing configurations requires swapping belt loops and the belt clip with a Phillips head screwdriver.
- The Pinch Retention Device provides an audible/tactile holster confirmation, which is useful, but it also means retention is built around that specific trigger-guard engagement.
- The holster includes multiple carry accessories, so setup can take more time than a single-purpose holster before it is dialed in.
- Full grain leather exterior with suede-lined, injection-molded interior gives a premium feel, but it also means materials and fit preferences may be more specific than with a simpler holster design.
