Custom Kydex Outside the Waistband Holster. This OWB Holster sits close to the belt with zero movement, as every open carry holster should. Made from .093" Kydex/Boltaron, using Melonite and Zinc finished hardened steel hardware, our materials are far superior than our competition. Each holster comes with a Military grade rubber retention system, as well as a lifetime warranty and 100% satisfaction guarantee. This holster is NOT meant to be concealable. It can be concealed depending on the type of firearm you have, under a shirt. But that is not the purpose of the holster.
Don't forget to check out our OWB Mag Carriers, as well as our IWB Holsters to get the most out of concealed carry.
Please choose your exact make and model. Failure to mention any details that influence the external dimensions of your firearm will result in fitment issue.

This is where you'll want to bring any customizations up. We need to know about switched magazine release buttons, extended mag release buttons, suppressor height sights and other such modifications.
The holster is very well made, fit is perfect for my XDs with crimson trace. My only complaint is the paddle. It is WAY too small. Which makes it not near as comfortable to carry as my Safariland paddle holster (but they do not have an option to accommodate the crimson trace). Also the edges are not finished very well and scratch where they contact my body. I plan on remedying that issue with find grit sandpaper. Dara needs a serious redesign on paddle, but other than that the holster is fantastic.
Love the construction but I wish the paddle was larger.
I bought this for my M&P shield 2.0 with crimson trace laserguard pro , had a hard time finding a holster let alone a good one , and I am so glad I went with DARA , quality is great and it was made , shipped and in my hands faster than any other holster company I've used ( I have about 5 different brand holsters for other pistols . The customer service was awesome and helped me pick the right holster for my pistol in 10min though chat and email . I highly recommend dara, and I will be purchasing another so I can throw away the
You can tell that they make them with care, and check the product 3 times before it is shipped!
Just received my paddle holster for my Glock G45 that i ordered after receiving my level 2 duty holster and all i can say is Dara did it again! The G45 has the G17 lower but, with a slight cant to the holster, it positions and balances the firearms very well! It actually makes concealment very easy and extremely comfortable. Also the time from purchase to delivery was a lot faster than what Dara states on the site. Couldn't be happier and can't wait to complete the collection with the appendix carry rig
