DeSantis Mini Scabbard OWB Holster for Glock 43, Right Hand, Black

Description

The DeSantis Mini Scabbard strips a leather holster down to the essentials and does it right. Built for the Glock 43 with a right-hand draw, this outside-the-waistband rig rides close and stays out of the way, which is exactly what you want out of a slim single-stack pistol built for carry. It's cut from a single piece of stitched, unlined leather and hand-formed in the USA, so the mold matches the contours of the 43 instead of being a rough approximation.

What Makes the Mini Scabbard Tick

Retention comes from two places here. First, the exact molding grips the slide the way only leather that's been shaped to a specific gun can. Second, the adjustable tension device lets you fine-tune how much grip you want, so you can set it once and forget it. The double belt-loop design lets a pants belt loop pass between the leather loops, which keeps the holster from sliding around on your belt. It handles belts up to 1 3/4 inches wide, so most standard and gun belts will thread right through.

Carrying the Glock 43 in the Mini Scabbard

Because the Mini Scabbard is open at the muzzle and trimmed close to the pistol, it sits flat against the body and hides well under a shirt or light jacket. Folks who run one tend to point out how well the 43 seats into it and how the tension holds without needing constant fiddling. Leather also breaks in over time, so the draw gets smoother the more you wear it. A quality belt makes a real difference with any OWB leather holster, so if you notice any wobble, a proper stiff gun belt will firm things right up.

It's a straightforward, well-stitched holster from a brand that's been building leather for law enforcement and everyday carry for decades. If you want something simple, slim, and built to last for your Glock 43, this one earns its spot in the rotation.
