The FALCO Holsters C142 LVL 2 Retention Premium Leather pancake-style holster is purpose-built for everyday carry outside the waistband. It features MLC Security Lock Technology(TM) and an integrated thumb break. Comfortable enough for EDC, this holster qualifies for level 2 (LVL2) duty use with its two distinct retention levels. The MLC Security Lock Technology design protects the trigger from interference on both sides and locks onto the trigger guard with the firearm holstered. To access the firearm, disengage the synthetic lock with your thumb. The reinforced thumb break provides the second retention level. Perfect for those who open carry and prefer an active retention device in addition to the reinforced thumb break, the C142 is available with a slight forward cant for enhanced concealment or straight on-the-hip carry. Choose your preference with the FALCO configurator tool. The widely positioned belt slots on both sides of the holster keep the handgun snug to your body for high stability and excellent concealment under clothing. Each holster is handcrafted from the finest Italian full-grain leather and hand-molded on a 1:1 handgun model, precisely fitting your specific firearm. Every holster features intricate artisan attention, including hand-dyed, oiled, and finished leather, plus FALCO offers extensive options for personalization.
