This is a great little holster. Dollar for dollar, it is a great deal. It gives a snug fit for my Glock 26, but still allows a smooth draw. The finish is and detailing is equal to holsters I've purchased for twice the money. The only down side is that you practically have to strip to your skivvies to take it off and put it on. It is better suited if you're looking to carry all day.

Nice holster. Would have rated it 5 stars if it had more body protection. This holster lacks a body shield and the controls and beaver tail safety dig into your backside a little. Other models are canted a bit more and your belt helps provide extra body protection. This holster does not.

Good quality, but the angle is so extreme it makes it a bit difficult to draw.

Over all a good holster for open carry. You still will need a good belt for the weight of the full size steal pistol

I bought this for my Springfield XD Subcompact. It is exactly what I was looking for in an outside the wasteband holster. Wearing it above the right hip you hardly notice that you are carrying, however, it requires some repositioning when sitting in a vehicle.

This is a very good holster for my Glock 22. I like the angle at which the gun is held when it is behind my strong-side hip. It allows for a very quick draw. The holster does not have a strap or locking mechanism, so you need to be constantly aware of your surroundings and make sure no one else grabs your gun. (Pro) The holster is completely secured to your belt, so there is no concern that the holster is coming with the gun on a quick draw. (Con) The holster is completely secured to your belt, so it may not work everywhere you go if you need to remove the gun and holster frequently. It takes a minute or so to attach and remove from belt.
