The DeSantis Gunhide Cazzuto D94KA5PZ0 delivers secure outside-the-waistband carry for FN 509 series pistols with rapid deployment capabilities. This paddle-style holster combines durable Kydex construction with adjustable retention to meet both duty and civilian carry requirements.
What Makes This Different
Unlike traditional leather holsters that can retain moisture and lose shape over time, the Cazzuto features thermoformed Kydex that maintains consistent trigger guard coverage and draw stroke geometry. The paddle attachment system distributes weight across the belt line while allowing quick removal without threading through belt loops. Adjustable retention screws let users fine-tune draw resistance from light competition settings to secure duty carry.

Field testing demonstrates consistent draw times under 1.2 seconds from concealment with proper training. The Kydex material resists temperature extremes from -20°F to 160°F without dimensional changes, making it suitable for patrol officers, security professionals, and competitive shooters. The paddle system works effectively with duty belts ranging from 1.5 to 2.25 inches wide.
