including strong-side hip carry and crossdraw options.
Blackhawk’s approach to the pancake holster features a
reinforced thumb break that allows quick access with minimal
motion. (It cost me .4 seconds at the range versus an
OWB leather pancake holster without a thumb break.)
Blackhawk’s holster is a two-piece design with reinforcement
stitching at the contours. The leather is premium and
molded to curve around our waist structure. The belt slots
pull it tight to the body and increase retention.
This is an ideal platform for larger handguns, but it also
works with smaller guns.
The triggerguard is fully
covered for safety, yet cut
for a full firing grip.
After 90 days of carry, I
can easily recommend this
holster. It’s been comfortable
to wear and dependable
to draw from.
