Keith's Review of DeSantis Flex-Tuk Leather IWB Holster

Printed material packaged with the holster suggested the initial fit would be rather tight. It was in fact difficult to insert the revolver and trying to draw from an "AIWB" location required both hands as the holster would rock or "lever" around on the clip. After wearing it several times on day hikes, hours at a time, and storing the revolver in the holster, it loosened and formed itself for a good fit and smooth steady draw. Reholstering through the flared top is doable but it's somewhat flattened by my IWB carry belt.
The leather's slight flex and smooth contoured edges make this DeSantis seem far more comfortable than my kydex/semi-auto models. I positioned the clip in the center mounting hole to allow the 3" barrel revolver to ride a little higher for seated and driving comfort, and may just cut off the protruding end of the clip that now extends past the bottom end a bit.
The 4-star design issue : Despite the T-nut anchor I just can't get the clip tight enough to remain vertical. It rotates enough in use to allow a sometimes uncomfortable cant deviation to to occur. Maybe adding some kind of locking washer or second anchor would stabilize this?
This is my first and only leather holster in my current EDC experience. I still have the Hoyt 1941 Duty Holster from my US Army MP rotation back in 1970-72. It's still serviceable with all rivets and most stitching intact. If I could ever again tolerate that deafening concussion of those 1911A's I will consider a DeSantis holster. Thanks Optics Planet for product and timely service.
