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

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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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 5

Posted by Justin W. on Jun 11, 2020

Recently purchased a canik tp9da. Couldnt find a holster company that made on for a canik pistol that has a hood. Found Dara Holsters by happenstance and made several inquiries before purchasing. They dont make one for my specific model but they do for th SA model. Since the frame is the same on both pistols I decided to take a gamble. I'm glad I did. This thing is build like a tank and fits perfectly. Comfort level is superb and it stays put. Hood controls are effortless and very intuitive. Thanks dara!!

This was literally the best OWB holster I was able to find being produced for the P365XL. I have aftermarket stuff like a wide optic plate and trijicon RMR that these guys we're able to say "No problem." to and produce super fast. I would recommend this to anyone. I am super happy with it. The quality is amazing. Thick Kydex, no play, perfect fit. Lifetime warranty. Can't beat it for certain weapon profiles.

Had to wait a long time due to Covid. Holster came finally and I was not disappointed. It fit like a glove for my XD mod.2. It's extraordinarily difficult to find a holster for this model that does not require heavy modification. Easy to adjust the draw resistance too. Great choice for a custom duty holster.

The shipping was super fast and the product is outstanding i have absolutely noting bad I could say about the boiler it is super sturdy and the tolerances are perfect I couldn’t ask for a better holster. The only issue I have is they don’t make one for every other gun I have because I’d buy one for every other gun I own

The fit is great! I love the retractable lock in strap and did not realize this was an option. I do not remember seeing this feature when ordering.

The only holster I could find with an optic cut out for my Kimber 1911 Aegis Elite Custom, fits perfect. I did have one issue with the screws coming out even after applying the provided locktite. I called customer service and was sent the proper hardware with out even a question asked. I have had it now for just about a year with no other issues. I have recommended Dara products to all the other officers in my department.
