Whether you're right or left handed, the Uncle Mike's SideKick Hip Holster delivers a smooth draw and secure weapon retention. Constructed with Uncle Mike's patented Kodra laminate, this holster can be worn inside the pants or on belts up to 2.5-inches wide. It also has a padded, waterproof interior to protect your firearm's finish from moisture damage. The reversible clip is made of spring steel and is powder coated to resist corrosion. Once holstered, the firearm is secured with a non-stretch hook and loop retention strap and a molded thumb break. For additional convenience, most sizes of this holster include a pouch on the front for storing a spare magazine.

Be very careful before making your size selection. The Size 1 DID NOT holster a Beretta Nano, even though its barrel is barely over three inches. The problem is with the trigger guard. The Size 1 would also NOT fit a Springfield XDs, or a S&W M&P Shield, for the same reason. The Beretta Nano DID fit a Size 15 and Size 16.
The holster is well made; very sturdy. There are two problems, though.
1) It is too bulky to be worn as an IWB holster. I would have to wear pants at least two sizes bigger for that.
2) The strap across the top is made of really cheap plastic. It ripped in two places where it folded over the pistol, and a third rip as it separated from the button... on the first day.
I am usually very pleased with the products that Uncle Mike's offers, but in this instance, not so much. The strap should be replaced with a nylon one, and the sizing description needs improvement.

It’s a decent holster, but the belt loops are very small. Only a tiny belt will fit. Does not fit inside your pants very comfortably either since it is bulky

This generic holster for "medium" sized semi autos doesn't fit the Ruger American Compact very well. Works OK but next time I'd spend a little more and get a gun-specific holster instead.

Very Nice Holster for my T120 9mm, the only thing is it fit kindof loose on my belt (if I were to draw my pistol the holster would slide up and possibly off my belt). I bent the clip so it fit tighter and its very nice now.
