Description
The 1791 4-Way Holster in Size 4 is built for folks who like options. Instead of committing to one carry style, you get four in a single hand-molded leather rig: vertical OWB, horizontal, cross-draw, and inside the waistband. A few quick adjustments around your belt and you've changed how you carry, which is handy when your day goes from running errands to sitting behind the wheel or a desk. This right-hand version comes in Stealth Black and rides on a heavy-duty spring steel clip for IWB, with leather belt slots handling the OWB positions.
What the 1791 4-Way Size 4 Is Built From
1791 makes these from 100% Certified American Heavy Native Steerhide, reinforced and double-stitched along the seams. The exterior is hand-molded, which is where the retention comes from, the leather grips the frame and holds the gun snug without needing a strap or lever. It's a lightweight holster too, tipping the scale right around four tenths of a pound, and the whole thing is made in the USA and backed by 1791's lifetime warranty on craftsmanship.
Fitting Your Pistol to the 4-Way Holster
Size 4 is a multi-fit design meant for compact and subcompact frames. That covers guns like the Glock 26, 27, 29, 30, 33, and 39, the Sig P228 and P239, Springfield XDS, XDE, and XD9/40, the S&W Shield Plus, Taurus G2 and G2c and 709 Slim, plus Walther PPS and CCP. One thing worth knowing up front: leather molds to your specific gun over the first few days of wear, so give it a little break-in time and follow the fitting instructions that come in the box. Users consistently mention the leather quality and retention once it's settled in, and the steel clip gets praise for staying put on the belt.
If you like traditional leather and want the freedom to switch carry positions without owning a drawer full of holsters, the 4-Way covers a lot of ground in one piece.

Frequently Asked Questions
What guns fit the 1791 4-Way Holster Size 4?
Size 4 is a multi-fit design for compact and subcompact pistols. It's made to work with frames like the Glock 26, 27, 29, 30, 33, and 39, Sig P228 and P239, Springfield XDS, XDE, and XD9/40, the S&W Shield Plus, Taurus G2, G2c, and 709 Slim, and Walther PPS and CCP. Since leather molds to the exact gun, similar-sized models in that range typically settle in well too.
How do the four carry positions work on the 4-Way Holster?
The holster supports vertical OWB, horizontal, cross-draw, and inside the waistband. The spring steel clip handles IWB carry on your dominant side, while the leather belt slots let you run the OWB positions. Changing between them is a matter of repositioning the holster on your belt, so you can adapt through the day without swapping rigs.
Does the 1791 4-Way Holster need to be broken in?
Yes, and it's normal for leather. The hand-molded steerhide grips the gun tight out of the box and loosens slightly as it forms to your specific pistol over the first few days. Follow the fitting instructions included in the package to get the retention dialed in properly.
Is the belt clip on the 4-Way secure enough for daily carry?
The clip is heavy-duty spring steel, and users regularly note it holds firm on the belt without working loose during normal wear. It's also easy to clip on and take off, which is a plus if you're putting the holster on and off often. For OWB carry, the leather slots give you an even more anchored setup.
