Description
The BH2.4S from 1791 Gunleather takes the guesswork out of finding a holster that works for multiple firearms. This multi-fit design handles a wide range of compact and carry-size versions of full-frame pistols without requiring specific model fitting. Whether you're pairing it with an FN 509, HK VP9 SK, or similar compact handguns, the leather molds to your gun after a short break-in period.
Built from 100% certified American heavy native steerhide with reinforced stitching at stress points, this holster is engineered to last decades of regular carry. The open-top design allows you to draw your preferred way, while the FBI cant positioning puts the gun at a natural angle for quick access. When a 4-inch barrel sits flush in the holster, the open bottom design accommodates longer barrels or threaded muzzles without printing or bulk.
What Makes the BH2.4S Belt Slide Stand Out
The belt-slide mounting system is a practical feature that often gets overlooked. Unlike fixed belt loops, the slide allows you to shift the holster along your belt for comfort when sitting, driving, or moving between positions. This means less pressure on your firearm when entering and exiting vehicles, and better positioning for your carry style throughout the day.
Break-In and Long-Term Durability
New 1791 holsters arrive with stiff leather by design. Your gun needs secure retention from day one, which means the leather intentionally holds tight initially. Most users find the holster breaks in within a few days to a couple of weeks depending on draw frequency. Follow the included instructions with a plastic bag method if you want to speed things along. Once broken in, owners consistently report the fit becomes glove-like without losing any retention. This is heavy leather meant to protect your investment for a lifetime.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does the BH2.4S take to break in?
Break-in time varies by user, typically ranging from a few days to two weeks depending on how often you draw. The holster arrives intentionally stiff to ensure secure retention from day one. Using the plastic bag method outlined in the included instructions can speed up the process. Once broken in, the leather becomes comfortable while maintaining excellent retention.
Will the BH2.4S work with my specific pistol?
The BH2.4S is a multi-fit design made for compact and carry-size versions of full-frame pistols. It works well with models like the FN 509, HK VP9 SK, Sig P229, CZ P10C, and similar compact handguns with 4-inch barrels. The open-bottom design also accommodates longer barrels and threaded muzzles. If you have questions about fit with your specific model, contact 1791 customer service before ordering.
What makes the belt-slide feature useful?
The belt-slide mount allows you to shift the holster along your belt without removing it, making it easier to adjust positioning when sitting in vehicles, at desks, or changing carry positions throughout the day. This reduces pressure on your firearm during routine movement and improves comfort during extended wear without sacrificing retention or security.
Is the BH2.4S suitable for concealed carry?
Yes. The FBI cant angle and compact profile work well under cover garments like t-shirts or jackets. Many owners report the holster disappears under appropriate clothing while maintaining the quick-draw advantage of OWB positioning. Concealment depends on your clothing choice, gun size, and body type, but this design is versatile enough for both open and concealed carry.
