442 Airweight Holster
I saw the following holster on ebay. I was wondering if anyone has purchased this holster or a comparable set up, and if they have an opinion as to how well the offset clip works.

I bought that very holster off the maker on eBay. It's my favorite holster for AIWB carry of my j frame. The offset clip makes it very thin and concealable. The mouth of the holster will not stay open when the gun is drawn so keep that in mind but if it did it probably wouldn't be as concealable. The belt clip fits up to 1.75" belts and does not move when on my 5.11 instructor belt.

I have an offset Del Fatti ISP-DD for my 442 like the one pictured...interesting that the clip is forward of the gun on yours, usually they are behind the trigger cylinder...either way, they make the gun slimmer in your pants....mine is horsehide which is very thin but stiff, so I can reholster it with one hand but it takes some effort...not really an issue with a CCW gun...if you can't stick it in your holster just stick it in your belt in the meantime...btw, the DD is my initials as he designed it for me...

This design is not common. I believe Alessi has the original in the APX. Note the slight muzzle forward rake for appendix carry.

Yep, it looks like a knock-off of the Alessi. So how do you like the configuration? Does it work only for appendix carry, or can it work over the back pocket?

Works great for me. I only carry AIWB and have been for about 4 years. Not sure about carrying near the back pocket. Seems it would print since it's a 0 cant holster.
