The

Protos Heritage™

The backer of the Protos Heritage holster incorporates a non-permeable stiffening layer in its core. This unique feature serves two purposes: firstly, it prevents sweat from reaching your firearm, ensuring its longevity and performance. Secondly, it prevents the backer from losing its shape over time due to stretching, maintaining a consistent fit and feel for years to come.

Best hybrid holster for P30

I'm a slimmer guy, and the small kydex shell and flexible backing make carrying my P30SK strongside possible. Most competitors have kydex above the sight channel and below the trigger guard to attach it to the backing. This makes the holster too wide for me and either creates a big gap between my back and belt. It also causes the holster to shift further back from where I put it. Black Arch (and one other company) remove the extra kydex below the trigger guard making it slimmer and carry better for slimmer people. I've actually been waiting for them to make a holster for my P30SK (I use the P30 length holster for my SK). I'm so glad they did. The only thing I would like changed is tightness of the retention. Even with the retention screw all the way out, I found the retention to be too tight. I replaced the rubber washer with a slightly longer one at the screw so I could have a better range of adjustment. Other than that, it's a great holster and I would purchase more in the future. I already have three Heritage models.

Good Holster

I haven't worn the one for my Hellcat Pro, but I liked the one for my Hellcat, so I bought one for my Hellcat Pro and P30SK (using the P30 length holster).

Best on the market.

Comfort comfort comfort. I dont even notice i have it on me.

Best hybrid on the market.

I have never been a fan of hybrid holsters. Usually they are just 1/2 Kydex with a leather back. What makes this holster different is that it is actually more of a 3/4 Kydex. You still get that solid “click” when holstering with the added comfort of a leather backing. It conceals great, super comfy, and is now my EDC holster.

CZ P10S holster

I received the holster last week and ran it through a two day class drawing from the holster. My only complaint is the leather backing has been curling in when I re holster. I don’t imagine it will be a problem for daily use.
