Description

The Dara Level 2 Duty Holster is designed for law enforcement, military personnel, armed security professionals, and civilian shooters requiring active retention. Our Level 2 Holster combines active hood retention with adjustable passive retention. The firearm remains secured until the hood release is intentionally activated by the user. 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.

Dara’s Level 2 Duty Holster, precision-crafted from the ground up to meet the rigorous demands of law enforcement and military professionals.

Key Features

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.
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. To customize the thumb lever, see our Level 2 Control Kit.
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. The REGULAR HOOD can accommodate optics up to 1.2" tall when measured from the top of the slide to the top of the optic. Anything taller, will require the LARGE HOOD. If your optic measures in between, we recommend sizing up. For the Trijicon SRO and RMR HD, please check the box for deeper optic cut.
Customizable Drop & Cant
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. Our DBL2 & DBL2-L Attachments allow for a 10° forward and 10° backwards cant angle adjustment.
Attachment Options
Choose from our numerous belt attachments and drops, including the 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. All attachments accommodate belt widths measuring 1.5" - 2.25".
Third Party Compatibility
For those running attachment systems from other companies, The Bridge™ Adapter allows the user to connect our Holsters to most third party belt attachments.
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.

Important Note
Please specify your exact firearm details to avoid fitment issues. All Duty Holsters are non-refundable, reflecting our commitment to tailor each order perfectly to your requirements.

Level 2 duty holster for a 1911 !9 mm 5

Posted by Matt Williams on Aug 26, 2022

High quality looks great perfect fit
Love it! 5

Posted by KC Andy on Aug 17, 2022

I found Dara holsters when I was searching for a company that made Level II Light Bearing holsters for a XDM 5.25 that I have....Dara is literally the only company I could find that made one. Upon receipt I was very impressed by the craftsmanship....so when it came time to buy another holster for my Springfield 1911, Dara was a no-brainer. The 1911 holster works just as well as my XDM holster, with the same feel and quality. I don't know if I have any reason to look elsewhere for quality holsters in the future. Sidenote: I do have the Safariland QLS attachment system on both my XDM and 1911 Dara holsters. The QLS fork was a little tight on the 1911 holster because it is so much skinnier than my previous XDM holster which was made for a TRL-1 light. I drilled out the holes on my QLS fork ever so slightly, and it now fits great on my Dara holster. Just thought I'd give an FYI, you may have to do the same if you run a similar setup.

I've been frustrated with the other BIG duty holster companies! Almost too many choices but then impossible to find what you need for your pistol or it's not in stock anywhere. Dara made finding and ordering easy. Quick delivery and their duty holster is top notch. I now have 2 and they fit and function perfectly. I also really like their ALQD mounting system. And the best is you can actually get them on the phone to ask questions!
Awesome 5

Custom Duty Holster 5

Posted by Keith on Jun 22, 2022

Yeah, this holster is phenomenal at this point so far. The hood & its mechanism is fantastic. The snug fit for my FNX .45 Tactical is great. Ordered the 1.5" leg strap as well which takes a second to get used to but works great & does as advertised. I will say however, because of the FDE slide on the pistol, black streak type gunk gets left on the slide after holstering & drawing out a couple of times. Not a big fan of that but it wipes off easily. Probably happens to most non-black pistol slides in alot of holsters? Price is certainly not cheap but as with most things in life, YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR. I have no issues spending cake if the products are quality which this is. All said, hope this thing lasts because its awesome!!
