What does this mean?Pros & Cons
Pros
The holster seems quite sturdy and of good quality. Aliengear's customer service is phenomenal! It comes with extras that can be used to upgrade with other alien gear holsters.
I do home remodel work so flexibility and comfort play a factor in an active working day. The hellcat doesn't rattle around. Unit is comfortable & easily adjusts to your needs.
The retention is adjustable with a twist of a screw, so you are able to set the desired amount with minimal effort. The only con of this holster is simply that there is really no adjustability in the ride height compared to the belt-line.
I have the core carry pack with a 1911 holster which i modded, and 2 kimber micro 9 nightfall holsters that i also modified to fit. It is molded well enough to keep sight stomach jabbing to a minimum. Perfect fit for my sig p238 and the alien holster ... Read More

That makes this holster completely useless for concealed carry. Second, the position of the belt clip makes the gun ride way too high to allow concealment.

It came with the full shell to attach to the paddle back holster as well.
With the bulk and the tendency for the grip to push out from the body it is not a good iwa conceal carry holster for me.
Shipping
I ordered the item on a monday and had it in my hands by end of business wednesday (usps shipping - super fast).
Packaging/appearance
Right out of the package it comes with additional fittings for left hand carry, a thumb release attachment, extra spacers to ad... Read More
Competitiveness
This is the best iwb holster i've found for an overweight person.
It is true that it is a bit thicker than some of the other kydex holsters out there.
The only thing i will note is that moving from a very soft belly band to a hard-sided holster was a difficult adjustment and it... Read More
