The M5X paddle holster is a versatile addition to Galco's line of Matrix(TM) thermoplastic holsters. The durable, injection-molded Matrix line is lightweight, comfortable, and nearly maintenance free - while remaining fast in action, concealable, and easy on the budget! Like all Galco paddle holsters, the M5X locks solidly on the belt while still remaining easy to attach and remove. The M5X securely positions the handgun at the beltline with a moderate butt-forward angle, enhancing concealability yet maintaining ease and speed of draw. Twin tension units allow the user to micro-adjust the feel of the draw while retaining a proper level of firearm retention. Unlike many other harsh, mechanical-looking plastic holsters, the Matrix resembles a hand-molded Galco leather holster. The M5X paddle fits belts up to 1 3/4". Made for semiautomatic pistols and double-action revolvers, the M5X is available in right and left hand designs in black finish.
