AFTER MONTH'S OF LOOKING FOR THE RIGHT HOLSTER TO CARRY MY GLOCK 36 CRAFT HOLSTERS ENDED MY SEARCH. THE QUALITY IS OUTSTANDING AND FITS LIKE A GLOVE.
Mike
This is a fine piece of craftsmanship. Very nice leather, well constructed. I used the break in and care kit for break in, gun fits like a glove as advertised. I have not adjusted it to my body yet, need to do that. The one thing I don't like about it is the thumb break, I feel it is on the wrong side. I find it hard to push it open with my thumb and it is very stiff (hard to open), I also have a hard time getting to the gun due to my size (I am a fat guy) but I am hoping as I lose weight and practice with it I will get better with retrieving my gun quickly, until then I will continue to conceal carry with my supertuk holster. I gave 5 stars because I know it will be amazing as soon as I lose weight and i figure out the thumb break and it is very well constructed but for me right now it is useless.
