The DeSantis Gunhide Thumb Break Mini Slide delivers secure retention and fast access for Glock 43, 43X, and 48 pistols. This outside-the-waistband holster combines traditional leather craftsmanship with modern retention technology for concealed carry professionals.
What Makes This Different
The thumb break retention system provides Level II security while maintaining quick draw capability. Unlike basic friction holsters, the adjustable thumb break prevents accidental weapon loss during physical activity. The mini slide design sits closer to the body than full-size belt holsters, reducing printing while maintaining stability.
