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.

What Is a Level 2 Retention Holster?

A Level 2 retention holster combines passive retention with an active retention device. Passive retention secures the firearm through adjustable friction, while active retention requires the user to intentionally disengage a locking mechanism before drawing. Dara's Level 2 Duty Holster utilizes adjustable passive retention and an integrated rotating hood retention system to provide enhanced firearm security without sacrificing draw speed.

Why Choose a Level 2 Duty Holster?

Level 2 holsters are popular among law enforcement officers, armed security professionals, military personnel, competitive shooters, and civilians who want additional firearm security during physical activity, vehicle operations, training, or duty use. They provide greater retention than standard OWB holsters while maintaining a fast and intuitive draw stroke.

CUSTOM LEVEL II DUTY HOLSTER 5

Posted by Steven B on Sep 27, 2020

This is a serious, world-class product. Very well made. Excellent retention and fits like a glove. The spring-loaded release is fast and reliable. A careful examination of this holster reveals craftsmanship, superior design, attention to detail and a very good fit for the belt size I use. I cannot say enough good things about this holster system. This is my first Dara holster. It will not be my last!

The holster itself is great top quality. Only complaint I have is the leg strap is too small I have it all the way loose and it’s still tight
Well built and durable 5

Bought two of these, one for me and one for my partner, as we wanted a quality holster with active retention for hiking. Very glad we went with Dara. The workmanship is excellent, the fit is great, and the customer service was on-point. We'll be back.
Level II duty holster 5

Posted by Ric on Aug 11, 2020

I'm quite happy with this holster. It is being used for a MR920L with MRD when I'm working as a Range Safety Officer. The fit is perfect and the "shield" has functioned flawlessly. Build quality is commendable. I highly recommend this holster if you are in need of a Level II for a pistol with a red dot sight.
Great holster 5

Posted by Jeff S on Aug 10, 2020

Great fit and finish. The hood locking system is solid. When I first tried it on, I’d unlock the hood with a push from my thumb, and then jerk the pistol out (the gun is locked by the hood, but also from retention provided by kydex). With a bit of practice, it’s much smoother to unlocked the hood with a push from your thumb, but also use that push as leverage for pulling the pistol out. It’s a really smooth, quick, and easy process. I like this holster a lot.
Best duty holster 5

Posted by Brian on Aug 06, 2020

Best duty holster on the market. With excellent pistol choices that others don't, offer, DARA goes above and beyond with customizations that others don't offer. Best customer service I've experienced...ever.

DARA LVL II For Sig P320 X5 Legion 5

Posted by D.B. on Jul 17, 2020

This holster is awesome. Kinda hard fitting on my battle belt, (Grey Ghost UGT) but I figured it out and wow. The leg strap makes for good support to the hip and the holster itself is fully adjustable. The tan finish is really nice on the hard polymer (I assume it’s a polymer) and fits the X5 L nicely. The thumb release is quick and sturdy. Would recommend!
Looks pretty awsome 5

Posted by Paul on Jul 12, 2020

I haven't installed this product on my battle belt yet but so far I am very impressed. The quality and fit seems to be perfect. I am not disappointed and I will probably buy from Dara again!
