Custom Level II Duty Holster

Bought this Holster for my new P226. It fits perfectly like all my other Holsters from DARA. I am on range and on duty all times and Weathers. Full Satisfaction with it at all.
Best regards from Switzerland.

The holster is well made and the belt options are beneficial to law enforcement officers. I have always had a problem with defeating the 1911 grip safety because of my large hands. The hood release button exasperates this because of it's position and a low grip. I had to add a strip of kydex, so my thumb would trigger the hood release from a forward (high grip) position. Please design a hood release on this holster model for better ergonomics using the 1911 platform, specifically positioning the hood release where the shooters thumb will end the draw stroke at the thumb safety of the handgun.

Awesome holster and service

Great custom holster specifically for your gun. Can add cool features like carbon fiber ones. Great customer service. Just make sure to email only. Lo e the level 2 type. Optics fit fine with the holster. Definitely would recommend this product!! Will buy again for other guns I own

Fit and finish is top notch hood works awesome. Qd is very good. Things that would be better for me ... First make the reciever belt mounted so that I can remove the entire holster. second ride height is fine for law enforcement but I'm not. I chose Dara level 2 for secure retention in heavy mountain laurl
But I always wear a load bearing backpack so I need a true thigh holster .putting the reciever on a belt mount would allow a drop platform that could completely detach I am currently trying to modify such a platform and I have a few ideas and prototypes if you can offer any advice or want to talk to me about my ideas contact me .thanks for an awesome product all my hunting buddy's think it is badass.

Firstly, bare in mind that it's realy dificult to find a quality L2 holster for this specific gun if it's gonna be your workhorse. Everything else on the packet is sub standard requiring the fitting of badly molded attachments to rails that shouldnt have made it past QC. The only way you will be please is if you go made-to-measure.... and this fits like a glove !. I wasted 80 bucks on another option before comming here.... and this one is not cheap, but you get what you pay for.

This holster feels robust, durable, well and thoughfully designed, and proffesional. The right kit also makes me look and feel more proffesional too. It hangs comfortable on the belt, and draws easily when not protected by the hood which feels positive and tough.

XD / 5" tactical owners won't be disappointed and its reasonable to assume that the same standards also apply to other manufacturers and models. I spent a long time trying to find a good quality L2 duty holster and still made a mistake that cost me!

If you follow this advice you will save time and money in the end, and be content in the knowledge that you made the right choice and you have a quality product.

Fits my sig p229 pro perfectly with my luepold delta point red dot!
I chose the sig p229 legion option DARA offered.
5 stars all the way. Thank you DARA!
Next to buy one with the light bearing option!
Very well made.

Big Fan for the M-18. well made, functional, cant wait to have item put through torture tests.

The fit and finish of the holster is second to none. I love the hood release feature to prevent access to my firearm and the quick draw from my owb side is quick and doesn't snag. Out of the box it fit my staccato c2 perfectly.
