Love my chest holster. Can’t beat leather . Great quality and decent turnaround time. Only hiccup was my rugar security would hang up and scrape some of the leather inside the holster at the slide. After following the break in directions and repeating it a couple more times, that solved the problem. Wish y’all made one that was a low ride leather holster that included the BALDR mini and red dot optic
Thank you for your review and for sharing your experience with the chest holster. We’re glad to hear you’re happy with the leather quality and overall turnaround time. We’re sorry it wasn’t a completely smooth experience at first, but it’s good to know that following the break-in instructions resolved the hang-up issue. Regarding your suggestion, we do offer a low-ride leather holster option — you may want to take a look at our H202 duty leather holster, which is designed for use with a weapon light and can be made optics-ready as well. It might be a solution that better matches what you’re looking for: https://www.falcoholsters.com/duty-leather-holster-for-gun-with-light-h202 Thank you again for your feedback and for choosing FALCO® Holsters — we truly appreciate it.
The A114 Merlin is an awesome holster by Falco. My third one. It's a 5 star.
Thank you for the great feedback! We’re very glad to hear you’re enjoying your A114 Merlin and that this is already your third FALCO® holster. Your continued trust and the 5-star rating mean a lot to us. Thank you for choosing FALCO® Holsters again.
I ordered this holster for a Glock 30SF with a streamlight TLR7x. The TLR7a is the same as the x. This is the first holster I bought for that blaster and it will be the last, as this thing one does exactly what I need it to do. I’ve had a lot of holsters and this is a good one. As always I took a heat gun and rounded the bottom of the holster so the edges don’t rub on anything. And then I added a small foam wedge between the kydex and the leather backer. That takes some patience, it’s a tight fit. The only other thing I did was increase the retention by molding the kydex to the light a little more in one spot. I wouldn’t recommend doing that as the retention was great as is, but for my line of work and what I put my gear through I need a lot more retention than 99% of people do. Adjusting the screws by the claw is all most people need to do. The kydex is thick and sturdy. The clips are very stiff and hold onto the belt amazingly. Usually I don’t like plastic claws but this one is an exception. It’s sturdy and I like that it comes with a different claw attachment so u can change how far it presses the grip towards your body. So far I’ve only been carrying it for a few days. Only had one hot spot after 11 hours of wearing it while working manual labor. After adding a wedge that hot spot is no longer a problem. While this is an expensive holster I’d say it’s worth it. And I will also say this, the leather backer does make this more comfortable.
Thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed and insightful review. We’re very glad to hear that the holster for your Glock 30SF with Streamlight TLR-7X met your expectations and performs exactly the way you need it to. Your experience with the materials, retention, clip strength, and claw system is especially appreciated, and it’s great to know the leather backer contributed to overall comfort during long, demanding workdays. We also appreciate you noting that most users will find the factory retention and adjustments more than sufficient, while acknowledging that your professional requirements are more demanding than average. Feedback like this is extremely valuable and helps other customers better understand the product. Thank you for choosing FALCO® Holsters and for trusting our gear for your line of work.

Thank you for the great review! We’re very glad to hear you had a positive experience working with us and that the pricing and shipping met your expectations. We truly appreciate the A++++ rating and look forward to doing business with you again in the future.
Quality of the leather was as expected, superb; however, the retention and figment for the designated firearm was horrid. Much of the firearm was exposed and the firearm would fall out after a couple light shakes of the holster. I would not trust to carry in this holster. Applying for a refund.
We’re very sorry to hear about your experience, and we understand your concern—retention and proper fit are critical, and this is not how the holster should perform. While we’re glad to hear the leather quality met your expectations, we don’t want any customer to feel unsafe or unable to use their holster. Please contact our colleague Miriam at [email protected] , who handles matters related to delivered orders and returns. She will be able to review the issue with you and assist you with the next steps. Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and we appreciate the opportunity to address it.
Extremely high-quality. The holster is an excellent tight fit. The availability of many custom options such as weapon light, optic, front post height and style are some of the best out there.
Thank you for your feedback! We’re very glad to hear you’re impressed with the quality and fit of the holster. Offering detailed custom options—such as weapon light compatibility, optic support, and front sight height—is an important part of what we do, so it’s great to know you found these options valuable. Thank you for choosing FALCO® Holsters and for sharing your experience.
I paired the holster with a harness I previously bought from falco. It was able to attach without issues. The leather is beautiful and brings a nostalgic feeling to when I carry off duty to and from the station. I got compliments from coworkers who were impressed with the quality. I will definitely buy another from falco
Thank you for your kind words and for sharing your experience. We’re very pleased to hear that the holster paired seamlessly with your existing FALCO® harness and that the leather quality and design made such a positive impression—both for you and your coworkers. It’s especially meaningful to know it adds comfort and a sense of tradition to your off-duty carry. Thank you for choosing FALCO® Holsters again. We truly appreciate your trust and look forward to assisting you with your next purchase.S&W M&P2.0 Competitor with Baldr Pro Laser/Light & Red Dot Sight. I ordered the black Pancake Style OWB holster. It shipped relatively fast considering it was delivered to the USA. Material quality is excellent. The holster was a very tight fit out of the box but after the first day of breaking in it slipped in & out easily. Especially after a second day of break in. Here's the method I used to better the break in process. 1. Cut the shell of a ballpoint pen to the needed length and secured it along the bottom of trigger guard while butting it against the back of the mounted laser/light using blue painters tape. Do the same at the top of the firearm between the front sight and mounted laser. 2. Placed the firearm in a 1-gallon ziplock storage bag. 3. Douse a toothbrush with rubbing alcohol and rub the inside of the seams & area where the light will rest until the areas are damp but not wet. Also rub the inside bend of the strap lock. 4. Firmly insert the bagged firearm in the holster making sure the strap lock is snapped & secure. 5. Using a long strap or a belt, wrap the outside of the holster with the beltloops turned inward. This will help with comfort when it comes time to wear the holster. 6. Day two, remove the belt from around the holster. At time time, you may want to rub additional alcohol along the inside areas mentioned in step 3. You can also wipe the outside of the holster with a spray leather upholstery cleaner/conditioner on the outside to help the forming process. Place the holstered firearm under your bed mattress or heavy pillow. This will help with the forming process around the firearm mounted accessories. After day two, the holster should be well broken in to the point the firearm will literally drop in and out and ready to wear.
Thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed and thoughtful review. We’re very glad to hear the pancake-style OWB holster for your S&W M&P 2.0 Competitor with Baldr Pro and red dot met your expectations in terms of material quality and overall fit after the break-in period. Your step-by-step description of the break-in process is extremely helpful and will certainly be valuable to other customers using leather holsters with mounted accessories. We appreciate your patience during the initial break-in and your understanding of how leather naturally forms to the firearm with use. Thank you for choosing FALCO® Holsters and for sharing your experience in such detail.Very accurate fit for my G19. Comfortable wearing it the way it was delivered.
Thank you for your feedback! We’re glad to hear the fit for your G19 is very accurate and that the holster is comfortable to wear right out of the box. We appreciate you choosing FALCO® Holsters and taking the time to share your experience.
I am Left Handed. I ordered a LH shoulder holster and after waiting a few weeks for them to "custom make' my holster, I received a Right-Handed holster in a LH package!!! Needless to say, this is useless for me other than maybe as a gift for one of my co-workers. I reached out to Falco TWICE to figure out how to have the holster replaced with the correct one. Instead of a reply, I received this survey. Ok, I'll play your silly little game. I could have ordered a custom holster from any one of Falco's competitors. I could have bought a cheapo holster and received it immediately (as I DO need it for work). But I ordered from Falco being a long-established company. Obviously, that was a mistake. Since I doubt you had to custom make a RH holster for a Glock 19 and made me wait, since one of your employees put a RH holster into LH package and sent it to me, since twice you ignored my attempts to fix the issue, I give you the lowest possible rating. will say this: the product seems to be well made but heaven help you if you need to contact them for a customer service issue, as it seems they have no regard for their customers.
John, we’re truly sorry for this experience, and we fully understand your frustration. Receiving a right-handed holster after ordering a left-handed one—especially after waiting for a custom-made product—is unacceptable, and that mistake should not have happened. We also apologize for the lack of response when you reached out to us. That is not the level of customer care we aim to provide, and we understand how disappointing it is to receive a survey instead of a solution, particularly when you needed the holster for work. We do want our customers to be taken care of, and we would very much like the opportunity to correct this. Please contact our colleague Miriam, who handles issues related to delivered orders, directly at [email protected] . She will review the situation and assist you with resolving this properly. Thank you for acknowledging the product’s build quality despite the circumstances. We’re sorry this experience affected your trust, and we appreciate you bringing this to our attention.
Finish and sizing are correct. The nylon wicks away body moisture and does not seem to transfer it to the magazine's metal. Bottom folds are a bit sharp against the body, but I am hoping that with use, they will soften and/or wear. Clip is strong and retention is positive, and can be increased or decreased to the user's liking. A good daily-use alternative for a quick grab-and-go.
Thank you for the detailed and thoughtful review. We’re glad to hear the finish and sizing met your expectations and that the nylon performs well in managing moisture without transferring it to the magazines. Your observations regarding the clip strength, adjustable retention, and overall practicality for daily grab-and-go use are greatly appreciated. The edges should naturally soften with regular wear, but your feedback is valuable and helps us continue refining our designs. Thank you for choosing FALCO® Holsters and for sharing your experience.
Since I bought two, I am leaving two reviews. Aside from the raw-leather backing, when the pictures show a finished backing, the included screws are too long for the IWB application, as they protrude and scrape your body. I will take a trip to the bigorage store to see if i can find some rubber grommets with a large central diameter to see if that works. More to come
Thank you for taking the time to leave detailed feedback, and we’re sorry to hear about the issues you’ve encountered. We understand your concerns regarding the raw-leather backing compared to the product photos, as well as the screw length causing discomfort in IWB carry. That’s certainly not the experience we want for our customers, and you shouldn’t have to improvise a solution on your own. Please contact our colleague Miriam at [email protected] , who handles matters related to delivered orders. She will be glad to review both concerns with you and help find an appropriate resolution. Thank you for sharing your experience, and we appreciate you giving us the opportunity to address it.Disappointed with the finish. The product pictures show a finished back, but I received both in raw leather. The magazines fit well, and there is a way to increase/decrease retention, but the whole raw-leather backing when the pictures show a finished backing feels bait-and-switchy to me.
We’re sorry to hear about your disappointment, and we understand how the difference between the product photos and the received finish could feel frustrating. We want our customers to be fully satisfied and to receive exactly what they expect. If you believe the finish does not match the product description or images, we’d appreciate the opportunity to review it. Please contact our colleague Miriam at [email protected] , who handles concerns related to delivered orders and will be happy to assist you in finding a solution. Thank you for sharing your feedback and bringing this to our attention.
Holster seems good. I questioned the sizing on the harness and tie downs and was assured it would fit. Once I got it, I asked for longer tie downs. Company offered to make it all bigger but now I can't get a response from anyone. Customer service is a problem.
We’re sorry to hear about your experience, and we understand how frustrating it is when communication doesn’t go as expected. We want our customers to be satisfied not only with the product but also with the support they receive. If you’re still waiting for a response regarding the harness and tie-down sizing, please reach out directly to our colleague Miriam at [email protected] . She handles matters related to delivered orders and follow-ups and will be able to review your case and assist you further. Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and we appreciate your patience.
I bought this for my compact 9mm. It does its job, but not as good as some of the other brands. It's real leather, will have to put some wear and tear on it to see how it holds up. I will follow up.
Thank you for sharing your honest feedback. We’re glad to hear the holster does its job, and you’re absolutely right — as a real leather holster, it will naturally break in and develop with use. With some wear and time, the fit and feel should continue to improve. We appreciate you giving it a chance and taking the time to share your impressions. We’ll be glad to hear your follow-up once you’ve had more time with it.If you have a few weeks, you won’t be sorry. It’s worth the wait. I have sciatic nerve issues which so far, every holster I’ve tried causes it to scream. I’m going on day 2 now with no issues. Keeping my fingers crossed. I was fully prepared to toss it in the drawer with all the others, but so far it’s a keeper!

Great quality! This is my second holster from Falco excellent quality and this hybrid holster is next level. Takes quite some time to receive but they come from pretty far away plus the make time can’t really complain too much.
Thank you for your great feedback! We’re very glad to hear you’re happy with the quality and that your second holster met your expectations—especially that the hybrid design stood out to you. We also appreciate your understanding regarding the production and delivery time, as each holster is hand-made to order. Thank you for choosing FALCO® Holsters again and for your continued support.
