"Good holster, spot-on ATACS pattern. Seems very durable and it's fully adjustable to fit anything from my 1911 and my M9 to my P99. Only issue is that the snap is a bit stiff and pops open on its own at times (but has enough tension on the gun to keep it from falling out regardless) though I believe it just needs to be broken in.

"This is a good holster for the money, can fit basically any size pistol besides a desert eagle. Fits my kwa m93r no problem. I am short ant it fits fine, so its good for almost anybody's size. The only problem i have with it is that it wobbles a good amount, but that's just cause my m93 is so big and heavy. I snipe so its fine when i walk just not running.
Pros:
Very nice quality
Fits almost any pistol
Comfy
Cons:
Sways and wobbles (for me)
Overall very very good holster for $20

"The holster itself is amazing. The straps are a different story. Fits every sized pistol w/ attachments, and the built in mag pouch saves on buying on separate. The rubber that is supposed to grip your thigh on the straps is on the wrong side. I removed and reversed mine, no problem.
Price is good, quality is great, does the job well
Only con is that I wish I didn't have to fix the straps

"I got this holster a few months ago for my KWA USP Match, I needed a universal fit holster for the size of the pistol. I like this holster, but as some of the other reviews have said the holster dose sway a lot. The weight of my weapon becomes a problem when sprinting as the holster allows the pistol to sway a lot. All in all a very good holster for the money.
Pros:
Easy to customize to fit larger pistols.
sturdy materials and stitching
non slip grip on upper thigh strap.
Cons:
Weapons sways a lot, even at just a walking pace,
holster sits a little low for my taste, with the bottom strap coming about an inch above my knee at the highest setting,
the upper thigh strap could be longer, I have mine fully extended to fit around my thigh

"it's a pretty solid holster for the price, however, it seems like it was made for guys with skinny legs. I'm not tall or anything but I do have athletic legs and had to adjust the straps almost to full capacity to get 'em to buckle and I still feel like it's squeezing a little too hard.
Overall 4/5 because it's a solid, cheaper alternative to the Condor Tornado in my experience (I own one for real world). Minus one for fitment obviously, so if you got tree trunks for thighs I recommend something with a little more slack in the straps.

"A great adjustable holster. I use this with my Marui Desert eagle, but is can easily fit my teammates, Glocks, M93R, Hi-Capa, and even the KWA M11. Incredibly versatile drop leg holster.
Pros:
Very adjustable, works with medium to XL frame pistols.
Secure fit once you figure out how to properly adjust.
Integrated velcro top magazine pouch.
Made from quality materials
Cons:
Strange ACU color, a weird shade of green tinted over the whole holster. Didn't match my ACU's.
Sort of slow draw, gets faster after becoming comfortable with the button design.
Tough to adjust at first.
Overall, a nice drop leg holster, if it wasn't for the bad coloring, It'd be a five. I'd reccomend it for someone looking for an inexpensive, adjustable alternative to a crappy Crosman hip holster or an expensive SERPA.

"Good holster, any gun should fit in it only problem is it moves a ton when you take a sprint with all that going on your investment stays very still and will not fall out. not to mention its very easy to adjust.
pros hold you GBB pistol and all its attachments no problem
Cons Lotta movement and wobble (gets in the way)

"i hate using my pistol. i have tried a few different holsters out and hated them, but man this holster is rad. it doesn't jiggle or move around when running one bit.
the reason i gave it 4 stars is because it says it has those rubber strips on the leg straps. but the one i received didn't. but it still doesn't move around on my leg even without the rubber strips.
the elastic bands near the clip stretch and cause a snug fit.
also when i attached my tac light, i couldn't pull the pistol out of the holster
make sure when adjusting the width of the holster, it is snug. i spent 2 hours looking for my pistol because it fell out.
all in all, i actually like having my pistol on me. great holster

"This holster holds any medium to large frame pistol exceptionally well due to the custom fitment. I use it with my Hi-Capa 5.1. However, the straps are difficult to adjust and there is not enough elasticity to them. It also rides very low. I wouldn't recommend buying this if you are a shorter person. The thumb break is alright, though I would prefer something a little more sturdy. So, 3/5 stars.

"Nice looking holster.
Bought it for my TM G17 , fits well.
Only issue so far is the straps.
As another reviewer has stated the top leg strap is short .
I have 22 inch upper leg and the strap barely adjust to that size. I have maybe another 1-2 inch if strap. Again not a problem for me but if you have larger legs this might not fit.
Also the leg straps have 2 nice gray rubber strips that are to add traction so the holster moves less. Well some one put them on wrong. The way the holster came the gray strips are on the OUT side of the straps. Looks nice but they should be on the under side in-order to contact your pants.
I will have to cut some stitching in-order to turn them over as the ends have been nicely sewn and you can not remove the buckles to flip the buckles over the correct way.

"I ordered this holster quite some time ago, around the middle of 2011, and all I can say is, watch out for this. 5 minutes after opening it up, the buckle that attaches to the belt snapped into pieces, so it rendered the holster almost useless. Now, I use it to store my TM 5-7 in my gear bag. It has very thick fabric molding, it WILL protect your sidearm from accidental drops or dust and things of that matter.
Pros:
Very thick material
Holds a very wide range of sidearms, so far these are confirmed models (M9,1911,Sig 226 and 229, all glock models, Desert Eagle, 5-7)
Cons:
Very weak buckle material, be easy on it!
Smells like crap out of the box
A bit too complicated for a holster

"Holster is Very Good! Had no wobble for me. Everything I had was very still. Only Problem I had was while playing in the field someone shot the plastic buckle and it broke. I tried looking for a replacement buckle and it is very hard to find. Still have not found one..
Pros:
Very Good Holster
Looks Very Cool
Holds Guns Very Still
Easily Adjustable
Cons:
Cheap Plastic Buckles
Hard to find Replacement Pieces

"Worse holster I've ever used. Couldnt get it comfortable or firmly tight. Draw time is slow. The part that actually retains the gun is very awkward. Just go for a retention holster once you know it will fit.

"I purchased this and used it about 3 times:
Pros:
................
Cons:
The leg straps were inside out so the grip part was outside my leg. I had to completely take it apart and put it back together the right way. It is not easy.
The leg straps fit me, but not my husband. If you have large legs do not get this holster.
No matter how much you adjust the holster, any size pistol will still fall out. And if you adjust it to where it doesn't fall out, it takes forever to actually get it out to draw it.
