Dara Holsters review by Rangehot.com

A few months ago I met Clinton Jamieson, of Rangehot.com, at one of the local gun shops here in Raleigh. We got to talking, he told me all about rangehot.com and we set him up with an account at Dara Holsters. We sent him out 4 holsters for review: 2 OWB holsters, a left handed IWB, and a Level II duty holster. To go check out what they had to say,   Click here .

Rangehot.com Dara Holsters for Review

Image
Here two of the four holsters given to RangeHot.com for review. The holster on the left is a Level II Duty OWB for a Colt 1911 5" in our basic black kydex. The second is an OWB for a Glock 21.Recently we tested the endurance of our holsters by running one over with an F150. The holster held up perfectly, not to our surprise. We often get asked ' Why not a leather or nylon holster?' Unlike leather, Boltaron and Kydex will not decay, rot, dry out or absorb moisture. The acids in natural and treated leather if left in contact with your equipment will cause corrosion. Nylon is weak in its ability to retain your weapon without the use of cumbersome retaining straps. This material is many times more durable, withstanding punishment that over time would destroy even the best nylon or leather gear.
