I think the overall design of this holster is good but could use a few changes. First off, the strap that goes around your leg has two rubber "strips" that are impregnated into the strap to give it purchase on the leg. These rubber strips and the way it is threaded also make the strap almost impossible to adjust for length. The end of the strap that is connected to the holster is connected by some rather cheap elastic. I don't foresee this elastic to last very long. I will be replacing this strap with standard nylon or poly webbing with a standard strap adjuster and side release buckle. Other than that, I like the product.

UTG always seems to deliver quality beyond what I'd expect for the price.The materials/workmanship/design (so,much,hook&loop.) are on par with holsters that cost twice as much.
My only qualms are: 1) the plastic clasp of the leg band will pop open if the strap is too tight. Hasn't happened again since I loosened it a little. 2) I'm about average at 5'9", and I have the drop strap adjusted as short as it goes without causing some wierd "hook on hook", "loop on loop" action. Not really as big a deal as the last thing as far as functionality. Maybe I just have short arms.
On the plus side "universal" is an apt description. The retention strap has lots of adjustment, and the main pocket is large. Most are a little loose, but even my Shield is held securely. If I don't have an extra mag in the mag pocket it even fits pistols with red dots.

I bought this holster to carry with me while I'm hunting. It definitely lightens the load on my waist and unnoticeable comfortable on my thigh. The biggest defect of this product is the clip is noisy after each step I take from the tension up and down. In this case it won't be sufficient for hunting.

I found this holster to be comfortable and light weight. I did have to make a small modification to hold the gun in place and not lay away from my body. I added 25 or so stitches with apolstery thread to hold the inside upper portion tight to the vertical strap. I've lost the ability to adjust the straps now, but I don't see the need.

I love this holster it works very well with my Beretta 92FSM and holds one extra mag. I like the nonslip backing on the leg fob. The price was best I could find on several other websites. Will be back to check out other products when I need them.

I bought this as strictly a range holster, and for that it’s fairly priced and well made. It is NOT a duty holster. I don’t like two things, but being universal fit they aren’t a huge deal. My 4” Springfield 1911 set too low and the grip frame wasn’t as high as I like it. A few stitches with upholstery thread raised it up to my liking. The retention strap sets over the grip safety and I prefer it over the hammer. Overall, a decent range holster.

Fits my Walter ppx 9mm perfectly, doesn't move up, down, or side to side once I cinch it down! The buckle makes a little noise while walking but I put the Velcro strap that came with the holster around the buckle and that stopped all noise for me

Great fit well made quality material. Wide range adjustable for comfort. My wife uses it some times. I'm 5'10" she's lucky to make 5' fits both of us with just a little adjustment.

Ordered this holster for my wife. Fits her Glock 23 perfectly. The single leg strap (as opposed to two straps) works great for her. Quick shipment and can't beat this price.

Its comfortable but you get what you pay for. If it wasn't for the belt hook it would fall off as the buckle on the thigh strap pulls apart with little resistance.
