Was sceptical, but it is perfect
I don't think I've ever written a review for an Amazon product, but this impressed me enough that I decided I should.I have an early generation Taurus PT111 that I could not find a holster for anywhere. I thought I was doomed to use a cheap nylon 'universal" holster when I somehow stubbled on this. Worst case I figured I could return it.However, this thing is great. It fits my double stack Taurus very well. Unexpectedly, It also fits my single stack Smith and Wesson Shield and is more comfortable to carry than the kydex holster I already had for it.It does not have the same audible click as a kydex holster, but there is definitely a point when you can feel the gun lock firmly into the holster.

Better than expected and works with full size and subcompact
Not a big reviewer but this was better than I expected. Carry a g42 ( pictured) in the hot months working outside in construction and have struggled with a single belt loop iwb detention holster for most of the year. Just purchased this to try something different and love it. The description doesn’t mention g42 comparability but since owning a 21, and 17 which I could still use this with, so i gave it a shot. The 17 fits this perfectly and to my surprise the 42 which is much smaller still has retention, although does move around a bit in the holster, it does not fall out and has worked well enough to earn my approval for the use with the small pistol. Once clipped iwb any pressure from your abdomen and or clothing keep it snuggly in place. Overall construction is sturdy and the design is perfect and comfortable even against the skin.

Impressed!
There are so many holsters out there you could take years to find the right one that works for you but this little thing does exactly what I need it to do. It's comfortable, sturdy and seriously fits EVERYTHING I've put in it while maintaining decent passive retention for a micro compact. You can change out your tools without having to shed half your gear and it's as easy as unholstering and reholstering them. I'm very impressed by how sturdy and versatile this product is but my only complaint is the riveted clips. Maybe that will be improved upon in the future. Then again, if it ain't broke, don't fix it!

Works great.
I'm not one to leave reviews often but this one deserved it. I've seen this in stores before and never bought it because I didn't believe it would work. I finally broke down and made the purchase after purchasing a new carry weapon I was having a hard time finding a holster for in my local store. I always carry inside the waistband and have a few choices for carry firearm. This comfortably holds all of them securely. I have tried with a compact 9mm, a subcompact with a laser .380, a mid size 1911-.380, and snub 357 5 shot all of which I might carry depending on the day. I was surprised and very pleased with how they all fit. It even fit my full size 1911 as well. If you're on the fence about this being to good to be true, it's not, get it. I'm probably going to get a outside the waistband for open carry situations as well.

It's sub-par if you ask me
Was very interested in trying the well-know Stealth Operator IWB Holster but was quickly let down with comfort and sturdiness. Both of which are sub-par when compared to other low cost options.

Almost too good to believe.
I admit that I was extremely skeptical when a friend showed my this holster at a recent class I was conducting. He claimed it was virtually universal. There are two immediate problems with that description:1. Universal holsters universally suck.2. How can a rigid holster be universal?Well, it's obviously not truly universal but is a multi-fit holster. While on the range that day, I had each student try his gun in this holster and, to my surprise it fit. Some were better than others but they all fit well enough to carry IWB. My interest was piqued so I ordered one to try out.After a week of regular use (14 hours a day), I can say that it is relatively comfortable. It has a nice minimalist feel which adds almost no bulk to the gun. My Glock 19 fits perfectly seating with a very positive click. I also took it to my local range and tried it out on a number of rental guns and found that most of them would fit well enough for carry.This is an ideal solution for the firearms instructor that routinely has students show up to class with substandard holsters (like floppy nylon holsters). I can keep a couple of these on hand to loan out during a class to show a student what a decent holster should feel like.

Great fit even for smaller pistols
I have to be honest. Half the reason I bought this was because I wanted to qualify for amazon's free shipping. I was very skeptical that there could be a "one size fits all" holster, and I've been looking for a good holster for my xds for several years. This far surpassed my expectations. I rarely write reviews but I was so impressed I decided to break my silence.I can wear it IWB or between my belt and pants. Either is comfortable. My XDS 9mm "clips" into the holster and is quick to draw and return. It is very secure. It sits pretty low but I can still sit comfortably in my car without the pistol handle digging into my side.It is a great holster and well worth the $35 I paid for it.Thank you, Stealth Operator, for making a quality product!

Does NOT fit kimber micro 9
I have a Kimber micro 9 with the crimson trace lasers. Have been searching for a holster that would accommodate the laser. This fits the laser just fine, but the problem it has is my clip release activated all three times wearing it which is an unacceptable problem, and I can’t have a holster that is going to pop the clip out randomly if I move wrong. The other issue I have with this product is the uncomfortable hard plastic it’s made of. It digs into the side of my hip and is extremely uncomfortable. It said it fits my gun (kimber micro 9, but that is not accurate. I will be returning this item.
