3 FOR 3. Third holster from Tier1 and they continue to knock it out of the park. Bought this for competition use, hence the Quick Lock Holster Level, and together they work like a charm. Although the OEM Retention Screws were plenty for those who don't feel the need to swap anything out. Tier1 will continue to get my business for ANY future holster needs! FYI, don't get this holster if you are not okay with individuals coming up to you asking what kind of holster you have at the range.

Carries deep enough to be super comfortable while having a great shape that disappears in the appendix. I don’t wear blue jeans type of clothes so I’m not sure if any holster ever would work with my body frame but all the ones I have tried in the past doesn’t come close to this great of a feel with my style of what I wear. We would all love it to be more affordable if a holster that’s a given as we usually own multiple guns that needs the holster 😉

This holster has to be the best OWB Holster I own. Bought two different variations from other companies before the SPARA and there is honestly no comparison. Does exactly what I need it to do. It’s tight, hugs my body, very concealed under jackets and keeps my weapon secured! Will definitely be buying other variations for my other weapons.

Excellent holster. The wing helps a lot with it pressing into your gun belt on your waistline. The clips and retention are great on the holster as well. Paired with a good belt and proper fitting you won't need to look for another holster again.

This thing is perfect! The quality is beyond compare. Ive had similar holsters, just opening the box the difference was apparent. The color is more than I could have hoped for, the premium kydex is well worth the money. The hold is strong enough to keep the firearm in place while still providing a smooth pull when it’s business time. The fit of the holster is very natural. Standing in even a tighter shirt it’s invisible. If I’m walking I seriously forget I’m wearing it. Sitting is taking a bi...

I carry this as my daily set up, Staccato C2, with an RMR, and a spare magazine. I forget that I am wearing it half of the time it is that comfortable. I strongly believe that this is the best IWB Holster on the market.

Hee C.

True everyday carry. Simple easy to clip on and off. The Recon Monsoon color is low-key bad-assery. This one is good for quick grab and go. I found it uncomfortable wearing it for long drives tho. I use this more than the Axis Elite because of the quick accessibility.

Well worth the price for something you wear every day. I got it for my G43x and it fits like a glove. The extra protrusions really help to hide the profile and it is practically impossible for anyone to tell if I'm wearing it or not.

Amazing rig, thee best for my glock 30sf 45acp. I can wear this comfortably while driving. I'm 5'10 210lbs. Lil dad bod going on, but not totally flat belly. And still feels good, while walking, driving, and bending down.

AMAZING!! I love how I have ease of movement when sitting down and performing other movement(s). Glad I made the investment. I also love the fact I can carry an extra mag without wearing an extra attachment somewhere else on my belt or in my pocket.

Solid construction and great fit for my Sig Fuse with Streamlight TLR-7 attached. Definitely worth the money to have the peace of mind that everything fits as it should.

Works great, joggers, pants, bath robe, the thing works. Wish the hook and other hardware was slightly smaller as my pant loops are barely large enough, making it a bit of a pain to take off or rotate. But thats very minor inconvenience.

Picked up a Centurion for my Canik Rival and absolutely love it. Been using it in some competitions for training and couldn't be happier. It got lots of attention and some new buyers on the way. Great job Tier 1!

The wide wedge covers a more even area imo and also less is more. I went with a medium in this application where I think a small would be just fine. Xiphos elite G17 size

I love it. Worth the wait . I'll keep purchasing more when I decide to buy more handguns in the near future that I decide to keep as my Everyday carry.

I originally ordered the Axis Elite for a Glock 43x with ulti clips amd loved it! Since then I got the Axis Elite for the M9A3. I wore the M9A3 and with a pair of non stretch jeans and ran errands. I walked around, drove about an hour, no prior adjustments... definitely made adjustments when I got home. Running the M9A3 in jeans isn't bad, is what it is. I wear 5.11 Apex pants for work and can do a good amount of driving, go up and down ladders, no problem and don't even notice if I squat...

William J.

I had a problem where the pistol and mag would push off of the body causing my belt to rotate forward. These wedges assisted with my belt facing parallel to my body and creating a cushion against my groin. These simple but effective wedges made my equipment work for me instead of me working around my equipment. Thank you Teir 1

Bought the MSP pro for a surefire light on a Walther PDP pro. It supports the gun very well and conceals it good, even being a bigger frame pistol. Will buy another Tier1 in the future.

I was looking for some type of foaming options for comfort. Even thought of some kind of DIY. I came across Tier 1 and fit perfectly. No need to DIY.

Great belt. Don't get me wrong, I love Kore but for comfort, this belt takes the lead. Recently, I accidently washed my belts (Put on a few extra pounds) and needed to get another belt. this one is great. Ive found the buckle can slip but doesn't anymore. Must be a new issue that goes away after wearing for a while but it's really a non-issue. Do yourself a favor and get one. you will not regret it.

I run this holster with the Ulti-clips and a wedge and it is perfect for all my sweats, sweat shorts, and gym shorts. The concealment claw still works really well with the drawstring. I am able to carry my 19x in shorts and a tight gym t shirt / tank top with very minimal printing. Yes I have to tie the drawstring tight but in the end it just feels like you’re wearing a belt and you forget about it. The two clips help balance the weight very well, and a wedge really helps tuck everything into yo...

Ive learned that I can only run T1C. Whether day to day or in my CCW classes. So far they have yet to fail me, despite how violent I am with them. From entry-level Crossbreed, to off body carry, this one works the best.

This is already my 7th holster from T1 and they are the best in the industry. The quality, comfort, and the style is perfect! Going to order the new APX now to see what that is all about!

Really love my kit. I keep on my body armor and I keep it with me in the truck in case I ever need it. Either for myself or if I ever roll up on somebody who needs help. You never know right? Train hard, train safe and god bless everybody. Take care

Jacob H.

Feels comfortable, first IWB holster for my Echelon. Extended magazine does print a little bit, I have another 17 round magazine coming in that I will replace the extended magazine with. I have an athletic build so it does conceal pretty well especially if I wear a loose T-shirt. Definitely recommend this holster!

Jose M.

Buy this holster. It’s worth the wait! I have several Axis Elite holsters for different firearms I own and none have disappointed me yet. For my Zev I opted to get the mag extension and with my plus five it aligns perfectly well. Tier1 keep up the great work.

Really well made and affordable. I love the upgraded Kydex and BMC color. Mounted to a UBL. Retention is great out of the box and the release mechanism is snappy. Will buy another when I finish my SIG P320 build.

I’ll be honest I was a bit skeptical about spending the money but it was definitely worth it! This holster conceals like no other. Super comfortable for all day wear. I put the L 1.5 wedge on and there’s next to zero printing. I ordered it with the T1C discreet carry clips. I love that they really hold everything in place. The adjustability of the clips and the claw make this adaptable to anyone. It took a week or so to get it where I wanted but once I did, it sits perfectly. Liked it so much I ...

It’s a great built holster !!! Very fast drawl. I love the durability of the holster I’ve been using it for several months now. I had a difficult time finding anything for a 1911 with a light they had it and it fits great.

Axis slim because axis elite wasn’t available for my configuration. HK VP9 standard with Streamlight TLR-7X. Went with recon haze front kydex… it sort of matches the bronze gun slide. No mag extension. XL wide wedge was too big, will need to shave it down and add Velcro to it so I can remove it from the holster as needed. Using three spacers on the claw. I like the discreet carry clips, they are definitely tough and strong, lending to a bit of belt scratching, not a big deal. Will see how it w...

Lokahi K.

Awesome! I'm using a Large Wedge on my non-Tier 1 holster. The Kydex for the holster was poking me on the bottom when I would sit down and it was feeling uncomfortable. But now, it soo comfortable! The wedge pushes the bottom of my holster away from my body therefore pushing the uncomfortable part away. And the Wedge naturally pushes the top part of my firearm closer to my body, making concealing better than it was before. It was very simple to install and the make of the wedge is very c...

Super Comfortable! Well made. I like how it clicks when holstering. It's like a double assurance that your firearm is seated well. The retention is good on both my firearm and magazine. The bungee/cord where it swivels provide a good natural bend. My other holster has a metal swivel. It doesn't conform as naturally as this one does. I am going to order holsters from Tier 1 again.

My holster showed up. I don't understand how you do it but this is the most amazing thing I've ever owned. Axis Elite and I've not taken it off in two days. Everything I need to do in a day this doesn't get in the way. Driving, work, shopping anything. You guys are amazing and I will now be ordering one for every gun I own..!

Needed a holster for my FNX45 for running heavy division for 3-gun and wasn't expecting too much from the holster. But when I received it I was really surprised with the overall quality, no sharp edges or any fit and finish issues and the fitment for the holster was spot on didn't have to mess with the retention at all. In the match it was trouble free and had a few people asking me about it. I'll definitely put Tier1 on my list for recommended holsters

This holster is perfect in every way! My G19 rides perfectly and is a comfortable fit for appendix carry. I will be ordering one for my Sig P320 X5 Legion.

Mitchell A.

I've been using the T1M for a while but recently switched to the axis elite. This is by far the most comfortable holster that I've used! I wish I would've switched to the axis elite sooner! Tier 1 continues to impress me with the quality and comfort of their holsters! It's the first brand I look to when looking for a holster for a new gun and the first brand I recommend to friends, family and coworkers.

I have carried appendix with several different pistols and holsters. This holster does an excellent job on comfort, concealment, and simplicity. Thanks for a great product and keep up the good work.

I have ordered 3 Axis Elite holsters from this company and have referred all of my buddies to this company to get their holsters. I cant say anything negative about my holsters. All of them fit great, the tolerances are perfect and they are not uncomfortable to wear, especially for someone that has a little bit of a dad bod. I absolutely love my Axis Elite holsters. I plan on ordering more in the near future also.

Tyson A.

Great fit and very comfortable. I can wear it all day. Great retention even in sweat pants, but I did put the discreet carry clips on instead of the easy adjust. I also put a wedge on the holster to better conceal my full size grip. I partnered it with the Kore Essentials X5 belt and I love it, concealed carrying couldn't get much easier than that! Especially if you're using a compact.
