Retention & Cant, Right HandCurrently unavailable. Was $39.99 in early December.It looks like Warriorland makes many other styles of holsters, but in this review, I will distinguish the two holsters as the holster with claw (HWC) and the holster without claw (HWOC).First, here are the similarities. Both holsters compared here:~ are Kydex holsters that fit the Glock 43X (MOS) capable of having an optic installed,~ have an open end design that allows for a threaded barrel to protrude through the end, though suppressors obviously won't fit through the holster,~ have adjustable retention by means of looseming or tightening one or two of the screws used to assemble the holster together, where a rubber cushion introduces resistance,~ have an adjustable cant, though by different methods,~ no thread lock is used anywhere.Then, the differences are that:~ HWC is an IWB only design, while HWOC can be configured to be IWB or OWB,~ HWC uses a wide plastic belt clip, while HWOC uses two narrow plastic belt clips that are on each side of the holster,~ HWC ride height cannot be adjusted, while HWOC ride height is adjusted by moving the belt clips up and down.~ HWC cant adjustment is accomplished by loosening the belt clip screws and altering the angle of the belt clip against the holster. The Amazon product page doesn't mention HWOC having cant adjustment, but slight adjustments can be made by adjusting the right and left belt clips unevenly.~ HWC Kydex extends on the left side of the gun nearly to the end of the slide, offering protection from rubbing and snags while holstering and unholstering. HWOC Kydex extends only to the point of protecting the slide release.~ HWC has a claw, and HWOC does not._The Claw_Having the claw is definitely an advantage. The small plastic piece pushes on the inside of the waistband, tilting the holster and therefore the grip clockwise into the abdomen, making concealled carry printing less obvious. I also find that this tilt makes it easier for me to get my thumb on the left side of the gun easier.I notice that the claw slides around against the inside of the waistband, although the surface of the claw that interfaces with the inside of the waistband has some texture to it. I might rough it up a bit more with a Dremel, or add grip tape._IWB Only or Dual Purpose IWB/OWB_The HWOC being dual purpose is nice, but I don't see OWB carry necessary for a subcompact like the 43X. I will most likely always carry this at the 12 O'clock position, IWB._Comfort_I wish that the HWOC has more of a curved shape. While this holster with a 43X is no where near the size of having a Glock 19 in a IWB holster, it is a bit more substantial compared to my previous setup, and if the HWOC was a bit more curved, I think it would fit better. I'm not sure what the ideal position is for the HWOC, but I couldn't get comfortable even at 12 O'clock.Ride height is just right with the HWC for walking, sitting, and driving, so it's not a huge disadvantage not being able to adjust it.At the moment, I think that both are well made, but I'm leaning more toward using the HWC primarily.

I purchased this to fit a PSA Dagger and it fits like a glove. It does exactly what it’s supposed to do. I appreciate the composition of this holster. It’s not cheap quality and the retention is nice and snug. Not uncomfortable but it isn’t the most comfortable. Depending on where you carry could also impact how comfortable it is. I carry appendix and between 2&3 o’clock so I’ve found this holster to be good for me.

Great Value for your money, easy and safe to use but a challenge to convert from right hand IWB to OWB function. Very Nice item.

Good fit and durable. Good value for the money and draws well.

Very solid holster and durable, not to comfortable iwb due to the solid hard construction, but it is very nice. Would be perfect if it had something rubber or soft in the points that push into the body. Very good price for the solid construction, and easy removal and smooth draw.

Sturdy and durable

No real complaints here... it enables a fast draw with enough retention.Only thing I don't like is that it does stick out a bit, but not as badly as most M17 holsters.

Great product fits the firearm well very flimsy clips to attach in place not sturdy enough plastic clips should be replaced for heavy duty metal spring clips!! I’d give it 5 stars but this is important not sure why they skipped/missed that part. You do not want to loose your firearm
