✴ Customize your holster to fit a growing variety of lasers and lights.
✴ Magazine release will not be covered unless specified in comments at checkout. Some firearms may have the tendency to have the magazine accidentally released when covered.
✴ Made by American hands in Michigan.
✴ Available with either a very durable, quality paddle – currently using G-Code large paddles -OR- a Tek-Lok belt clip.
✴ Equipped with the Tek-Lok, the holster will sit further away from your body than the paddle, therefore, making it more visible/less concealable. It is better suited for open carry or a range holster. Although the Hastings is not designed specifically to be a “concealment” holster like our “8 Mile” IWB model, the paddle option makes it a bit more concealable than the Tek-Lok.
Tek-Lok is a secure, innovative, and versatile latching attachment system. The engineers and product developers reworked its functional ability to add more utility and ease of use. The Tek-Lok has also been contoured to fit the profile of the body better and eliminate hot spots. The new Tek-Lok is held in place by two robust retaining tabs. A user-friendly, integrated secondary locking system was also built into the redesigned Tek-Lok. With the simple motion of a thumb or finger, the redundant lock rotates out of the way to allow the user to pinch the retaining tabs and conveniently remove the Tek-Lok from the belt. It is readily adjustable to accommodate belts from 2.25″ down to 1.25″.
LEVEL-2 RETENTION OPTIONS
- Since our holsters are Level-1 retention/friction-fit, you may want to consider configuring your METRO with our Level-2 retention hood – ESPECIALLY if you have a laser/light installed as most retention in this scenario is on the light/laser vs. the trigger guard (i.e. even less retention than a gun not equipped with light/laser).
-
- Thumb Release Hood
- The thumb release is perfectly sized and positioned for repeatable positive activation of the release while securing a firm grip all in one single motion. No additional grip adjustments need to be made prior to or after the drawing of the pistol.
- Thumb Release Hood
-
The smooth action thumb release activates the spring-loaded hood in a fraction of a second. This allows for the pistol to be immediately drawn as soon as the grip is secure. Much different from other designs which require the depressing of the lock release followed by a forward movement by the user to secure the grip.
The rearward unlocking motion saves valuable spacing between the retention system and the mounting platform. Because it doesn’t require the thumb to push down and outward (toward the body), this retention is ideal for mounting on a chest rig/vest carrier system.

“I just wanted to take the time to send you a quick email to let you know how absolutely thrilled i am with my kydex holster for my g26. I have been wearing it now for about 4 days and i cant believe i haven’t had this holster until now. Ive been wearing it at work without my pistol in the holster and i haven’t felt any discomfort in the kitchen while working. Holstering and reholstering is an absolute dream. It seems to find and click into its home no matter how you reholster it. I will be ordering a holster from you in the near future for my storm sc. So all and all thank you again sir for your fine craftsmanship.”

Also I’m happy to learn that part of my money helped some people in need.
I hope I will deal with you again in the future!

I ordered a Hastings model holster for my grandson’s customized Glock 19. Using only the information from the order form, my additional comments, and a photo of the pistol the folks at Detroit Holster were able to make a holster that fits his pistol perfectly. In addition to the fit the grandson is also very happy with how the holster rides high and close to his body.
We are both 100% pleased and satisfied with Detroit Holster’s customer service and products and will be recommending them to other folks looking for a quality holster.
Thanks Much. James & Sterling

It’s amazing how something so heavy can feel like it’s barely there in the right configuration. GREAT JOB!!! Five stars to you guys. Thanks again, Joe

I just received my two new holsters from Detroit Holster and am I impressed. So much so I ordered a 3rd one for my Glock 43X. Wish I had known about Detroit Holsters years ago and I wouldn’t have a drawer full of holsters of all makes and kinds from leather to kydex. I have been carrying my handgun since Texas allowed CCL in mid 1990’s. Have owed many handguns and the holsters to go along with them and these are the best I have purchased so far. Keep up the good work and I’m proud to do business with a charitable organization that helps the community.
