The 1791 Gunleather Heavy Duty Action Snap OWB holster delivers secure retention and quick access for everyday carry applications. This ambidextrous outside-the-waistband design accommodates multiple firearm platforms while maintaining a professional appearance.
What Makes This Different
The Heavy Duty Action Snap system provides adjustable retention that adapts to different barrel lengths and frame sizes within compatible firearm families. Unlike generic one-size-fits-all holsters, this design features precision-molded leather construction that forms to the weapon's contours. The snap mechanism allows for consistent draw angles while preventing accidental releases during physical activity.
