The 1791 Gunleather Tactical Kydex IWB holster delivers secure retention and rapid deployment for Springfield Hellcat pistols. This precision-molded holster eliminates the bulk and flexibility issues common with leather alternatives while maintaining the low profile essential for concealed carry.
What Makes This Different
Unlike generic holsters that rely on adjustable retention screws, this holster uses weapon-specific molding to create an exact fit for the Springfield Hellcat's unique trigger guard and slide profile. The proprietary Kydex formulation resists deformation under heat and maintains consistent draw resistance through thousands of cycles. Standard polymer holsters often crack at stress points, but 1791's reinforced design distributes pressure across the entire holster body.
