i bought this not realizing it has a solid wire (leather covered so it wont hurt the gun, but wired) lipped mouth, therefore not allowing immediate use for my ctc laser grips. you can probably bend them to desired shape to fit, but i personally didnt think they were worth fooling with. once put inside the pants, it seems alittle too much of the gun pointed down making sitting uncomfortable with it in place no matter where i put it. i also have a small gut, but i guess it is a big enough gut to make the pistol grip stick out away from my mid section some even when standing allowing the gun to be not so concealed as i would like it. maybe i should just lose alittle more weight! never the less, if you are a hefty guy like myself (6'1"/245lbs), you may not like the comfort of this. it is one-ply suede leather and nicely stitched, but thin which i guess is good for this type of application. it is very tight fitting (i am sure it will loosen) but dont expect to be drawing it fast in a situation for a little while until it wears in some. it was so tight, my slide almost sit back on the frame just alittle once it was pushed in all the way, but like i said, it should wear in after a while. i dont really have any major complaints for it since it has such a low price, but you get what you pay for. its just a good "git-r-done" holster until you find your gun's soulmate holster i guess. but you will have to modify it if you want your crimson trace laser grips to fit in there. maybe the uncomfort level of it for me is because i'm a fat ass, i dont know. never-the-less, i am returning mine and getting a SOB holster as i dont see any other IWB holster feeling better jabbing the gun in my groin/leg/wherever i put it when i sit down. probably fine for someone with skinny/normal abs. either way, its a cheap price for a galco holster and i cant say anything about the price to quality ratio on this one. i am neutral in reccommending this since it depends on who we're talking about so i left the "reccommend" button on the review at default of "yes" since it may be fine for others, just not for me. God Bless my buddies who fell beside me in Iraq and never came home, i havent forgotten you and wont.
Pros: lightweight, not bulky, inexpensive, wont mark the weapon, fine for bare pistol without accessories
Cons: cheap and flimsy, wire enforced mouth doesnt allow for ctc laser grip application without use modification
