The Galco KingTuk Deluxe IWB holster combines precision-molded Kydex with premium saddle leather for superior comfort and retention. This hybrid design addresses the common complaints of all-Kydex holsters while maintaining the security and quick draw characteristics tactical users demand.
What Makes This Different
The KingTuk Deluxe features a leather backing that conforms to body contours while the Kydex shell provides consistent trigger guard coverage and audible retention click. Unlike standard leather holsters that can collapse after drawing, the rigid Kydex construction maintains its shape for safe one-handed reholstering. The UniClip attachment system distributes weight across a wider belt area compared to traditional clips.
Key Features
- Precision-molded Kydex shell with adjustable retention screw
- Premium saddle leather backing with smooth finish against body

- Form-fitted specifically for Glock 43 with full trigger guard coverage

Field testing demonstrates consistent 1.2-second draw times from concealment with proper training. The leather backing reduces printing through clothing while the Kydex maintains positive retention during physical activity. Temperature extremes from -10°F to 140°F show no degradation in retention force or structural integrity. The holster accommodates standard Glock 43 sights without modification.
