Retention and Draw Characteristics

The holster uses a traditional thumb break paired with precise molding to the firearm’s profile. That thumb break gives an obvious, tactile retention point for secure carry, while the exact molding maintains consistent draw resistance. The integrated tension device lets you calibrate hold to preference — tighter for active duty or looser for expedited retrieval during training.

High Ride, Optimum Draw Angle

Because the firearm rides high, muzzle-to-body clearance improves and the natural draw path aligns with the shooter’s hand. This reduces index time and minimizes the need for grip gymnastics. For concealed carry practitioners who favor appendix or strong-side high positions, this layout preserves concealment while allowing an efficient two-step presentation.

Fit, Brand, and Pricing

Desantis Gunhide is a longstanding name in American holster design, and the model selection listed as Various reflects compatibility across multiple platforms. At a price of $66.59, this holster sits in an accessible range for quality leather and molded retention pieces — a sensible investment for daily carry reliability.

Features to consider when selecting the right version include cant, mounting hardware, and whether you prefer a reinforced mouth for one-handed re-holstering. The exact molding mentioned in the product description ensures repeatable re-holstering and consistent draw feel.
