Bianchi, 100 Professional Holster

This is a well made and quality holster. Everyone is correct that it is tight when it is first used. Wrapped my firearm in a plastic bag and gently shoved it into place. Put the holster on and wore it in that condition [unloaded of course] around the house. It loosened up some so I drew from it lots of times. That also helped. Still doing that right now. With the pistol in the holster I used the wife's blow dryer to gently heat the leather and form it around the barrel. That always works. I will keep working with it over a couple of more days. It has good retention to say the least. Drawing from the belt is not too bad now. Not where I want it to be but I know it will get there with time and patience. There are "fast draw" leather conditioning products available for the impatient sorts. It is taking on the shape of the pistol. This is a generalized holster designed to fit certain classes of hand guns. Not anything like a kydex holster when it comes to initial fit. Knowing my experience with it would I buy it again? Absolutely. It is a well made and affordably priced leather holster. It is also very comfortable IWB rig. The clip is strong and substantial but very easy to manipulate for quickly gearing up or down. Leather is special. So is this holster. UPDATE: It is late 2023 now and I want to leave more positive reviews about this holster. I have worn this holster almost daily since my original purchase. It has held up amazingly well for use with my P220 and PCR Compact. Comfortable fit and still has great retention. I would buy this one again based upon my lengthy experience with it.

Good quality, convenient holster for my M&P Shield. Just enough leather to do the job. I like the design and the looks. Not as nicely finished as my DeSantis Cozy Partner, which is thicker, with finished leather on the body side, but I find myself using the Bianchi more because it is easier to put on and it is comfortable.I'm writing now because I realized that I forgot to take it off again, and I've been home for 4 hours. The Cozy Partner is truly a fine product, but the two belt straps can be a pain, and require more time to mount comfortably, depending on the placement of your pant belt loops.. The Bianchi is a really nice grab-and-go holster, and I have tried a number of pistol/holster combinations. It is easy to adjust on the go for comfort and concealment. It is easy to re-holster, as to date it has held it's shape. Today, I carried wearing a golf shirt, because i was able to easily shift it to the 2 o'clock position to avoid printing when I exited my vehicle. I am wearing a 1 5/8' duty-grade leather belt, and the clip retains the holster flawlessly when I draw the Shield. Perhaps the unfinished backside helps hold the holster in place. Note, however, on my first carry day, the edge of the upper part of the inside flap was rough and really annoying. I took a fine sanding block to it for about 90 seconds and it is now surprisingly comfortable against my skin. Hence, I sometimes forget to take it off when I get home. This is my favorite IWB,

I'm not giving this 5 stars because its not a custom leather holster that you would pay 4 or 5 times more for. Don't get me wrong, it works. But it is what it is. Its a cheap priced, not made, IWB for a Sig P938. Gun fits ok as its not custom cut for my gun. Its made for guns of that size. Some guns it will fit tight and some it will fit a bit loose. For me it fits pretty good. All around a good holster. I would buy one again if I had to. Again, I'm not giving it 5 stars because at 4 stars it does what it should do and 5 stars would be above and beyond. This does what it should.

I like this holster a lot. Pros: 1. Craftsmanship... the stitching, molding and edge finishing are all solid and utilitarian. Not luxurious like more expensive holsters might be, but I didn't buy it to look at. It smells fantastic, too. 2. Comfort... no hot spots, and it bears the weight of a steel-frame Government model surprisingly well. 3. Compactness... takes up minimal belt space. The loops are as close to the slide and trigger guard as they can be for a pancake style holster 4. Concealability... this will vary by body type and wardrobe, but the design puts a lot of torque on the trigger guard, which keeps the butt in tight to the body. It rides a bit lower than the Galco Combat Master, which means the muzzle needs a slightly longer cover garment. 5. Continental unity... (struggling to keep the unintentional alliteration going here lol)... It's made in Mexico, which means lower cost without sending our money overseas. Cons: 1. The sight track could be bigger. I suspect that with a taller-than-stock or serrated front blade, you'll be getting a shiny spot on the top edge of your sight and/or pulling some leather fuzz out with the front sight for a while. I've got a Hi-Viz coming for this pistol and will update. 2. No option for 1-3/4" belt slots. Things to note: 1. There is no sweat shield. Ths may or may not be a problem for you. 2. It is TIGHT when you first get it. This is normal for a leather holster. You can't just unwrap it, strap it on, and start carrying like you can with kydex. Some people like the plastic bag trick, but I just let the pistol sit in it for a few days and then started doing draws with it. After a few hundred repetitions it's perfect.

good quality but requested a glock 22 holster and the one sent did not fit not even close.
