Most Helpful Positive Review Great Holster
Being in law enforcement for near 30 years now , I've tried , & bought many holsters , having a box of holsters I can't wear. Mostly due to lack of comfort, than concealment. I have an older original Askins Avenger holster for a 1911 that I purchased in 1984. So, I was looking for a similar holst...

Most Helpful Negative Review Thin leather- better off with a Galco
Not a good value to cost ratio. The leather is cheap and thin, too flexible. It probably won't hold up in the long run. Okay for occasional use, but better off spending a few extra bucks and getting a Galco or similar quality. You get what you pay for. Pros: ??? Cons: Thin leather, somewaht chea...

Review of BlackHawk Leather Compact Askins Holster

by Terry, from NC, United States Written on August 2, 2015
I really like this holster because it can be moved about and worn in several positions to conceal any print of a firearm (hugs the body) yet still makes for an easy, quick draw - even with an untucked shirt over it. It is well made and very durable but does require a couple of break-in days (wet interior of holster, wrap handgun with several layers of wax paper, push tightly into holster and let wetted leather dry completely).
Pros:
  • Holds the weapon close to the body
  • can be worn in several position
Cons:
  • Break in period
  • Cant is not adjustable
  • belt slots are not large enough for 1-3/4" belt
Best Used for:
  • Concealment
  • easy draw
Would recommend: Yes

by Guy, from MD, United States Written on January 29, 2015
I am pleased with the quality of this holster. The workmanship is very good. I like the position it holds my pistol and the ease that it can be concealed and accessed. The adjustable retention feature allows you to make your weapon as secure as you wish. A very good investment!
Pros:
  • Quality materials/workmanship
Cons:
  • None

Perfect J-frame belt carry

by Newt, from CO, United States Written on December 17, 2014
Nice and tight carry to side. Pistol fit tight at first but broke in quickly. Solid carry and easy fast withdraw'l. This holster is made with quality leather and the craftsmanship is 1st class. Belt needs to be less than 1 3/8" wide to fit holster loop and allow proper fit. Belt at 1 1/4 " is perfect. Very Pleased!
Best Used for:
  • CCW

perfect fit for kahr

by Legacy Reviewer, from WA, United States Written on February 17, 2013
this took the place of a pocket holster and is much faster to get in action. Covers with long shirt . can get to your gun in a car seat much better.
Pros: very comfortable all day long
Would recommend: Yes
