The 1791 Gunleather UIW Max delivers versatile carry options for mid to large frame pistols with tactical accessories. This ambidextrous holster accommodates firearms equipped with rails, lasers, and weapon lights without compromising retention or draw speed.
What Makes This Different
Unlike standard holsters that require separate models for different carry positions, the UIW Max functions seamlessly as both inside-the-waistband and outside-the-waistband carry. The open-bottom design accommodates threaded barrels and compensators while maintaining proper trigger guard coverage. Premium leather construction provides durability that synthetic materials cannot match, developing a custom fit over time.
Key Features
- Ambidextrous design works for both right and left-handed shooters
- IWB/OWB convertible carry system with adjustable belt clip
- Open-end construction fits pistols with tactical lights and lasers

Field testing demonstrates consistent retention across temperature variations from -20°F to 120°F. The leather maintains structural integrity through extended duty cycles while developing improved fit characteristics. Draw times remain consistent whether carried appendix, strong-side hip, or cross-draw positions. Water resistance prevents degradation during inclement weather operations.
