The Galco Walkabout 3.0 delivers reliable inside-the-waistband carry for the Glock 43 with premium leather construction and enhanced comfort features. This holster addresses common IWB carry issues through thoughtful design improvements and quality materials that maintain their shape over extended use.
What Makes This Different
The Walkabout 3.0 features Galco's Combat Cut design that allows a full firing grip while holstered, eliminating the need to adjust your grip during the draw. Unlike basic IWB holsters that can collapse after drawing, this model uses reinforced leather construction with a steel-reinforced mouth that stays open for safe one-handed reholstering. The neutral cant position works effectively for both strong-side and appendix carry positions.
Key Features
- Premium center-cut steerhide construction resists moisture and maintains shape
- Steel-reinforced holster mouth prevents collapse during reholstering
- Combat Cut allows full firing grip establishment while holstered
- Specifically molded for Glock 43 with precise trigger guard coverage
- Reinforced stitching at high-stress points for extended durability
- Smooth leather finish reduces printing under clothing
- Compatible with standard 1.5-inch gun belts
Field testing demonstrates consistent retention across temperature ranges from -10°F to 120°F without adjustment needed. The holster maintains proper retention after 500+ draw cycles while the leather construction breaks in naturally without compromising structural integrity. Law enforcement officers report successful concealment under both uniform shirts and civilian clothing during extended duty periods.
