Description

Are you searching for the ultimate retention holster built to withstand duty use? Look no further than Dara’s Level 2 Duty Holster—precision-crafted from the ground up to meet the rigorous demands of law enforcement and military professionals. Unlike other "Retention OWB holsters" that merely add a third party rotating hood, our level 2 holster integrates advanced retention features and durable construction, designed in house and backed by a lifetime guarantee.

Key Features

  1. Durable Construction
    Built from .125" Kydex or Boltaron, purpose-blended polymer injection molded components and assembled with Black Oxide coated stainless steel hardware, this holster ensures unbeatable strength and longevity in any environment- guaranteed.

  2. Retention System
    Customize the draw stroke to your preference with the passive EPDM rubber retention, the active retention hood locks firmly in place until you activate the thumb lever—enabling a quick, smooth release.

  3. Optics & Sight Compatibility
    Our holsters are designed to accommodate most slide-mounted optics and suppressor-height sights, ensuring versatility for various duty or tactical setups.

  4. Customizable Fit
    Adjust the ride height and cant angles on our belt attachments for optimal comfort and draw efficiency. Add an optional leg strap for extra stability, especially during high-intensity operations.

  5. Attachment Options
    Choose from our DBL2 or DBL2-L Attachment Systems. Both options provide clearance for body armor and a natural draw stroke, making this level 2 holster ideal for professional use. 

  6. Quick Disconnect Compatibility
    For those running other attachment systems, The Bridge™ Adapter allows the user to connect to most third party belt attachments, ensuring the holster remains secure and perfectly aligned—no matter the attachment you choose. Our own Quick detach system- The ALQD- is the only auto locking QD system on the market, boasting a higher break away point than any other attachment.

  7. Made in the USA
    Every Duty Holster is meticulously crafted in our North Carolina facility. Our advanced manufacturing process guarantees a precise fit for your specific make and model.

    Professionals Quality

    I’ll start with the short version, which is that this holster hit a home run for me. After looking around for a Ruger 57 holster, I couldn’t find any that didn’t look like cheap junk, and I stumbled across this one, having never used a Dara product previously. I was a little hesitant at the price, but after looking at the customization options, and pondering it for a few weeks, I decided to just go for it. I went with OD green for my personal taste, in the level 2 duty version. I’m not any type of law enforcement or anything, but I wanted something that would absolutely not come out riding quads or mountain biking. This checks all the boxes, and then some. Because the custom to order fact, it took a couple weeks to ship as they tell you ahead of purchase, and it was at my door 4 days after. Every part of it is perfect, and functions exactly as it should. I loosened the retention just a touch for my personal preference, but the spring loaded top release works lightning fast, the retention is plenty strong for any weapon to stay put. The color is spot on, the material quality is great, I just really couldn’t be happier, and I understand after having it in person that the price point is exactly what it should be for something of this level of quality. I will be ordering from Dara moving forward after seeing this level of quality, that is so hard to find anymore.

    365xl with optic for 365 .380 with optic

    I checked with customer service about the compatibility, and appreciate that they were honest and said they had not tested with the non-xl 380. From other discussions, I felt pretty confident, so went ahead, and it turned out great. With minimal adjustment (tightening the tension a bit), it snaps in tight, and the flip retention easily clears the holosun 507k that is mounted. There is extra room beneath the barrel, but that gives me option to switch out to an xl later, if desired. It's a little unusual to put such a small gun in a level II holster, but I wanted the same draw profile as my patrol weapon so I can swap out with the quick mount on the belt for less bulk or on the vest if running ropes and rifle. Very satisfied.

    LVL 2 Duty Holster

    You simply cannot go wrong with their Level 2 Duty Holster. The friction retention is adjustable, material incredibly durable, fits most any of the handgun optics that are run now. The push button retention release is intuitive. I've run some of the competition in the past but other holsters are like eating hamburgers when you could eat a DARA steak at the same price. I've bought two DARA setups at this point and I'm not going back.

    Fn 509 level 2

    An absolute 5 star holster. Fit, quality appearance are all outstanding. I’m a return customer because of product but also customer service. A stand alone company! I will just keep coming back. Also with the new BRIDGE system you have no excuses not to be apart of the family

    Absolutely TOP NOTCH!

    I have had a couple different duty holsters from time to time and I just have to say this holster is far superior than the others I have had. The quality and craftsmanship of this holster proves that America still puts out the best! You can tell that there was attention to detail involved on every aspect. The hardware is heavy duty. Placement of this holster just makes sense with positions of mounts and other attachments to the belt ( ALQD, double loop, drop offset). I bought all three mounts because I was not sure what I would personally like and feel good about. But even trying all three different mounting options to my belt, I had a hard time choosing which one I wanted to use because they all were awesome. The Kydex is of great quality as well. You all have a great product and I’m looking forward to doing a lot more business with you very soon! Thank you!

    Outstanding!

    My Custom Level II Duty Holster fits my Glock like a glove. Overall build seems bomb-proof yet is not bulky or clumsy. Ordering was easy. Shipping was fast. Communications during the whole process was excellent. I'm glad I chose Dara Holsters.
