Had to pull sides open to get my Glock 21 into the holster, then it would not release the gun. Pulled open some more and then put silicone inside to get the gun to release easier. Holster should come with lubricant to help in getting gun in and out of holster. Spring inside leather is too tight to allow the gun to be released without bending open. Great holster. Covers the entire slide of the gun and allows plenty of room to grab the grip. Good leather on holster and straps. Quick opening snaps are a great, make operation easier.

Holster is way too tight, too major effort to insert Sig P250, have left it in for a couple weeks and it is not rapidly getting better. No way could the firearm be drawn in a timely fashion.

I love the Bianchi X15 shoulder holster. One of the best things about this holster unlike most shoulder holsters is you can use it for more than one pistol. I use this model for my Glock 19, Sig P228, S&W 45 auto, and my Beretta 84. Most other brands I would need 4 different holsters and would of had to spend 4 times the money. Also this holster lets you carry the pistol vertically for quick and easy access. I think it's absolutely the best shoulder holster out there for your money.

I purchased the Bianchi X15 Shoulder Holster from Optics Planet after researching other holsters and retailers. The holster is a vertical style leather rig with a thumb strap and spring retention system. This style fit my needs perfectly for use with a large caliber automatic when riding my ATV in the forest with my wife behind me. One of the requirements of a holster for this purpose was that it would not point at or sweep my rear passenger. One of the features I like is the fact that this one holster will hold four different handguns that I own. It is not a snug fit, but the spring tensioner takes up the slack. When put to use for conceal carry, under the appropriate clothing, the gun and holster is comfortable and easily accessible, even while driving. I would recommend this holster to a friend.
