    Genuinely good holster.

    I really like my Dara holsters. I had one of their regular level 2 holster for work and decided to upgrade to a light bearing holster. I was surprised to see so many options for my specific gun since it is pretty new as well. They are surprisingly low profile as well.

    Level 2 Duty Holster with Kore Battle Belt

    I’m extremely happy with my purchase. Components are high quality and my 365X Macro fits perfect

    Great product

    I was looking for a more slim holster for duty use, rather than the bulkier ones my coworker carry on their belts. I happened to stumble on Dara holsters while searching around on google, and I'm very satisfied that I order one for myself. I've had level 2 holsters and I prefer to use that on-duty, and my Dara holster is great. It's exactly what I was looking for, and I have no regret that I purchased one. I highly recommend it.

    High quality craftsmanship, excellent fit

    Was initially on the fence about spending this much on a holster when there are similar options for a fraction of the price, but Dara was one of the few manufacturers out there for a light-bearing Glock 40 with optic, so choices were limited. I felt better upon seeing the quality as soon as I received the holster, and having now trained with it, could not be happier that I stumbled upon Dara holsters as the functionality is absolutely superb. The security of my pistol when holstered paired with the ease of draw and natural operation of the flip lock make this one of the best holsters I've used. Thank you Dara team for such a quality product.

    LIGHT BEARING LEVEL II DUTY HOLSTER

    I had given up on finding a good Level II holster that would fit my Gen3 G17 with a TLR8. Every holster I found that I liked was always missing one or two things or it wouldn’t fit my light. Finally found this holster and it’s as amazing as everyone on here says. I always read almost all the reviews on a product I’ve decided to buy. So many good reviews on this holster, thought it might be too good to be true. This holster blew any expectations I may have had out of the water. It’s rock solid, the retention hood mechanism is perfect. So good in fact I purchased a second one for my lady’s G19. Lastly and most importantly, they don’t tap these holster for Safariland QLS forks…BUT she was easily able to modify the QLS fork with a bit of light dremel work and it fits to perfectly. Just in case anyone was wondering, I’m the event they wanted to use this amazing holster with the Safariland QLS system.

    You have to own one to understand

    I've always been a Blackhawk owner and I still think they make some decent stuff. However, a custom Dara level II just blows it away. No extra bulk but tough as nails. Fits my G17 with a TLR1 and Holosun perfectly. The hood is snappy and rugged. I'd 100% order another one.
