    Love this holster!!! This is my go to rig for EDC now, great work Alex! -Adam Painchaud

  2. Kevin Soria

    Love the holster.
    Fits great and looks awesome!! Definitely buying another one again

  3. Antonio Beltran

    Amazing comfort, quality and design.

  4. Jason

    You won’t be disappointed with this product! I purchased one of these holsters for my Sig P238 last year. This holster is so comfortable, I now carry my weapon every time I leave the house. I also purchased an extra mag carrier – also very comfortable; and comforting knowing I have an extra 7 rounds. These holsters look great too!

  5. DH (verified owner)

    I have been running this holster for a few months carrying a SIG 229. Thus far it has lived up to my expectations.

    I was apprehensive at first about the polymer claw with its added width since I carry at the 12 o’clock position. There has not been any difference in feel with this rig vs one with out the claw. The claw is a great added feature, especially when concealabity is a major factor.

    Drawing and re-holstering the firearm is smooth which is a major advantage over a leather IWB holster.

    Over all the holster is well built with quality and rugged hardware. Customer support was prompt and Professional.

    Well done

  6. Paul Stork (verified owner)

    Great build quality and super comfortable! This is a breath of fresh air after a string of bad luck with other holsters.

  7. Craig (verified owner)

    Amazing quality holster and the first holster I know I’ll be able to carry everyday all day without discomfort. Will definitely be buying all my kydex holsters from them now.

  8. Townsend

    I’ve had holsters from just about every major manufacturer for a verity of different firearms and none of them fit and ride as good as the ANR does. In the past with some single clip holsters I’ve had they ride to high in the belt and move around to much, not this one. It stays put and sits at the perfect height in your belt line, easy to get to your gun fast but still conceals great. 100% would recommend to anyone looking to conceal their firearm safely and comfortably daily.

  9. Justin (verified owner)

    I’ve had my fair share of holsters but once I came across this company I’ve bought one for each one of my pistols. Not only is the quality the best on the market you cannot beat the customer service.

  10. Manuel Garcia (verified owner)

    Amazing holster, great finish and very comfortable.

  11. Marty Sevensky (verified owner)

    Perfect fit and retention, no slop or wiggle-the the craftsmanship on this product is top notch, from the fasteners to the belt clip. You will not be disappointed..I will definitely be ordering more for my other guns. Keep up the great work!

  12. Michael (verified owner)

    Awesome holster! Solid and smooth construction with excellent retention. Sits at the perfect height for minimal printing yet accessibility, and adding the claw results in a holster that conceals my G19 better than my other holster hides my Shield9, while being more comfortable. It’s witchcraft and I love it.

  13. Tim B (verified owner)

    My appendix carry holster for a Glock 19 just arrived! Looks great and it fits the weapon perfectly! A solid addition to my EDC line up! Thanks ANR Design guys! Will be back for one for my Sig on my battle belt for work! Cheers!

  14. Cory Bloemendaal

    I’ve never been much of an IWB kinda guy, but after using the IWB w/ Claw I am shocked at how comfortable, and how well it conceals my CZ P-10 F. I tried appendix carry as well as behind my hip, and was not let down. If you’re looking for the perfect holster, look no further. And the cherry on top is it looks great! Awesome holsters. Awesome company. There isn’t enough stars to rate this holster.

  15. Tyler REEVES (verified owner)

    I’ve bought one for my sp01 tactical and love it. I have another one on it’s way for my p01. Great quality especially for the price!!

  16. Shane Lamb

    So i’ve owned one of these for about 8-9 different handguns and every single one was a perfect fit. Finish is phenomenal and worth every penny. No matter what sized handgun you carry, from full sized duty guns to subcompact carry guns, the claw in this makes it disappear. It’s extremely comfortable too. If you have questions, the customer service is by far some of the best i’ve ever come across. If you carry, carry ANR Design!

  17. Eric (verified owner)

    Awesome fit and finish. Adjustable rents room works exactly as it should. The claw sits perfectly in-line with the belt and is very effective. Over all has a minimalist profile but still big enough to get good pressure from belt and pants in order to conceal. I own 5 of these holsters and will continue to get more with new guns.

  18. Malachy (verified owner)

    Take this review with a grain of salt because I have only ordered ANR holster. Although on the flip side of that note it’s because I haven’t felt the need to try different holsters. The fit and finish on these are superb. I’ve ordered both the blood red and coyote tan colors; both look great in person. With the claw I am able to carry a CZ P10C with a magazine extension with minimal to no printing…. oh and I’m 160lbs with a 29″ waist so I print REAL easy.

  19. Jeffrey

    Great holster, been using for a week now. Nice retention click. Quality craftsmanship. Great customer service as well when dealing with a shipping situation of my own making.

  20. Jerry (verified owner)

    This is my first IWB holster, a left hand model for a CZ 85. Fit and finish are beautiful. The claw is ingenious and works very well to hide the butt. Will definitely look to ANR for additional holsters.

  21. Chad (verified owner)

    Got this for my Glock 26 and I love it. Can barely feel it. Great quality and great customer service.

  22. Jonathan (verified owner)

    Got this holster 2 weeks ago for my P80 Glock 19 and have used it every day. It is comfortable and has great retention. I highly recommend this product.

  23. James (verified owner)

    Been using this holster for about 2 weeks now for my CZ 75 PCR and it is by far the belt holster I own. Saw Tim from military arms channel on YouTube recommend this company for his cz 75 and will be ordering holsters for my other carry guns in the near future.

  24. Loren Hernandez (verified owner)

    Hey man, I just wanted to let you know that I put that p10c and your holster to the comfort test…as a fat guy usually appendix is not very comfy, but with y’alls holster and the p10c I was able to while kayak fishing for 8 hours straight this past weekend. Y’all make outstanding products and I couldn’t be happier. Paired with that p10c…they are a match made in concealed carry heaven. Keep up the great work over there!!

  25. Andrew Balsman (verified owner)

    Was recommended to buy my holster here from numerous people, and I couldn’t be happier! Amazing quality, very positive retention, and great comfort! Keep up the great work.

  26. Tyler Annicelli (verified owner)

    Excellent product. Perfectly fit for my p320 x carry. Excellent adjustable retention with an audible and tactile click letting you know your firearm is secure. Claw placement is perfect and conceals the firearm perfectly even with full size magazines under even a thin T shirt. Happy to support a company right here in the live free or die state. Phenomenal product.

  27. Zack Childress (verified owner)

    Look no further. These are the best holsters on the market. Just ordered my second one and the fit and finish is spot on.

  28. Jeremy Trop (verified owner)

    Holster is fantastic. Highest quality one I own out of many different kydex builders. Color is a little off though. I ordered a woodland IWB but it definitely is not your traditional M81. More specifically it looks exactly like Scorpion OCP.

  29. Barry (verified owner)

    This is the best IWB holster I have ever used. I learned about it during a class at Critical Defense Institute, and now this is the only IWB holster I use. It is comfortable and holds my pistol securely in place, no matter what I’m doing. I recently went for a hike with this holster on and had no issues. As a bigger guy, my abdomen tends to press the pistol grip outwards and cause printing. The claw design on this holster is perfect for that issue and keeps even full-sized pistols well concealed on my frame. I highly recommend this holster for IWB carry.

  30. Cody B (verified owner)

    I have tried many other holster manufacturers, in a variety of styles. I have to say that ANR is my go to holster maker. I will continue to recommend them to any shooter looking for a quality kydex product. Great job and thanks!

  31. Carlton E (verified owner)

    Love the holster! Order was easy to place. Holster shipped in 14 days. Very comfortable, conceals well. Excellent build quality. I’ll be back for another in Nov.

  32. Dan C (verified owner)

    It is even better then anything you heard!!! The retention is amazing and the conceal ability is even better.

  33. Joe D (verified owner)

    Kydex quality, fantastic. Belt clip is robust. Claw looks solid, and made in the USA is stamped on it, so that is nice. Only thing that bothered me about it was the looseness of the claw side to side. I would think that would be pretty rigid, issue was resolved by wrapping electrical tape around the screws and trimming. This took up the slack within the screw cavities and made it more rigid. Other than that, it really conceals the firearm way more than non claw IWB’s.

  34. Brian

    Seriously the best holster out there. Carried a different companies holster for a while got my arn iwb and this thing is absolutely amazing. Comfortable at all times even sitting down. The absolute best all around

  35. Nicholas Turano (verified owner)

    My first ANR Design holster and my first dedicated Appendix carry. I could not be happier with this product. The fit, finish, and attention to detail is amazing. My P30SK loves her new home. Will be ordering again without a doubt!

  36. Marky Mark (verified owner)

    I own many ANR holsters, bought this one for my new Glock 43x. Fit and finish is absolutely amazing. The new claw design is a real game changer! Highly recommend!!!

  37. Aaron Holloway (verified owner)

    Joined the Multiple ANR holster club. I have one for my carry 19 and on a whim I bought one for my M9A1. ANR holsters are 100 percent worth the cost, which really isn’t high, and the lead time, which tends to be just quicker than they post. The claw works great for appendix and 3-6 (for righties). Fantastic retention. Get off the fence and order one for either all of your guns, or all the models they offer. Be sure to bug Alex on his IG Q&As so the rest of us get supplied with some comedic gold. Shut up Chad

  38. Miran M.

    I started following ANR on social media for the relentless CZ content, shameless promotion of the pro-2A cause, and the awesome personalities behind this company. After a while, I finally decided to try an AIWB kydex holster, so I ordered one for my P01 with TLR7, and oh man, it was love at first click. I have a lot of holsters (as my wife often reminds me) but this is something special. You can feel the craftsmanship in this holster. The pistol goes in and out smoothly, yet sits securely. Carry went from constant anxiety about printing and retention to absolutely no worries. After celebrating Glocktober, I had to ring ANR again, this time for a lightbearing + optic holster. Same story: perfect fit, superb craftsmanship, and a happy repeat customer.

  39. Russ Hunt (verified owner)

    Great holster! Versatile and comfortable. The claw really pulls the grip into you body, improving concealment.

  40. Andrew (verified owner)

    I received my holster for the Sig P365. This is an awesome holster, I love that there’s a cutout for an optic as well as an open end for a threaded barrel. I got the option with the claw. I like how there’s a shorter claw provided. I could not ask for a better holster. I also appreciate that it arrived way sooner than I expected.

  41. Brandon Manies (verified owner)

    Hands down best purchase I’ve made in a while. I tried one of the cool guy mag caddy type holsters and it just wasn’t for me, and probably the most uncomfortable, unrealistic setup for me personally. Followed them for a while and always loved the simplicity of their holsters and heard nothing but good things so I figured now was the time for change, and I couldn’t be happier. I run mine with the smaller claw option so having a spare sent with the holster to fit your needs was a plus. I’ve literally forgotten I’m even carrying at time it’s so comfortable. Also had a 2 week lead time and I got my holster from time of purchase, to my door in 6 days, and customer service has been great as far as answering quick questions on Instagram, so I’m sure more serious product inquiries will be the same. I’ll be purchasing a light bearing AIWB in the future as well. Can’t recommend this product enough.

  42. Zachary Bowman (verified owner)

    Love this holster. Fit is tight and it sits flush to my body.

  43. Johnathan Boyce (verified owner)

    Couldn’t have bought a better holster. The claw works mint so there is no print while conceal carrying.

  44. Johanna (verified owner)

    Have purchased other AIWB holsters, ANR is by far the best. I am a small lady and I rarely print unless I am wearing something super tight.

  45. bob-4388 (verified owner)

    What a great holster, superior fit and retention is the perfect combination of secure with an easy draw. Conceals my full size pistol under a tee shirt. Buy it, you’ll love it.

    Ordered the IWB custom holster for my Sig P320 X5 Legion. Submitted my order and forgot about it thinking it would be several weeks. To my surprise it arrived within 2 weeks! Fits and feels great.

  47. Brad (verified owner)

    Got this holster for my CZ P01. After trying many different holsters from many other companies I can know say the search for a comfortable holster that makes the weapon disappear is finally over. Will definitely be purchasing more.

  48. Chadi (verified owner)

    Absolutely love this holster, sits very comfortably and fits my g19 with threaded barrel with good retention. My model is left handed with kryptek Neptune kydex and I am 100% satisfied with the purchase. 10/10 will order again

  49. Mike (verified owner)

    I’ve ordered 2 holsters and I couldn’t be more happy with my purchase. I will definitely be ordering a couple more. The holsters fit great and are comfortable to wear. The build quality is amazing and I would recommend this product to friends and family.

  50. Bill (verified owner)

    i purchased the iwb P320 x carry holster for my x compact. I have never been able to comfortably conceal this large of pistol with other holsters.. The gun disappears even in t-shirt and jeans. . I used to carry a glock 43 in summer summer and glock 26 in winter. i can’t recommend this holster enough.

  51. John Kronuch

    I just received my holster for my p10-c and I couldn’t be happier. I got the first one and immediately ordered a second one for my wife’s sig. The quality is top notch. The hoster fits really well and wears great, very comfortable and unobtrusive. Would highly recommend this holster to anyone. Very high quality product from a very high quality company.

  52. Rey Rey (verified owner)

    I highly recommended, got it for my Glock 19x and it fits perfect and conceals perfect.

  53. Justin (verified owner)

    Very comfortable for appendix carry with good concealment for X-compact. My favorite AIWB to date. Nice work, guys.

  54. Robert Spurling (verified owner)

    This is without a doubt my favorite holster now. I have bought a lot of holsters from a lot of different people and I will now only buy from ANR Design

  55. Zachary Biel (verified owner)

    Picked up my first ANR holster and all I can say is WOW! If you are wanting to switch to AIWB, or are already carrying that way but want a super solid rig, look no further. I’ve been carrying for nearly 2 decades and AIWB was never an option due to holsters that were uncomfortable. I figured if I wanted to make the change, I should buy a rig designed from the ground up for the purpose. I am sure glad I did. My P365XL has never carried more comfortably. Any new holster I buy will be from ANR! Yours should be too!

    I got my holster, the fit is the best around! There is no rattling, my pistol is secure and holds perfectly. The claw makes sure the pistol grip is tucked in tight against your body, no matter where you carry, appendix, 3 o’clock, 4 o’clock. I’ll be buying many more Including the NIDHOGG holsters!

  60. Thomas (verified owner)

    * wish I could give this 4.5 stars *
    I own both this (got it with the krypyek highlander camo) and an iwb from Alien Gear both for the IWI masada with a holosun red dot on it. There’s an option for an optics cut, and it conceals better than the Alien Gear that doesn’t currently offer an optics cut for the masada (it does for other platforms so I just cut the Alien Gear myself.) That said it is less comfortable than the Alien Gear. If it was as comfortable as the alean Gear I’d give it 5 stars and shop here exclusively for any iwb products in the future but as it stands I’ll likely shop both companies. Hope this helps someone.

  61. Josh

    I review for one star, seen they won’t let me post with one to four star. So I review for 5 star. Really ONE STAR FOR THIS!

    Holster is perfect I love but wrong side and inside. I request is open carry. They Refused to solved this issue and keep telling me it my fault for wrong order. They calling me annoying guy. This is disappointed/disrespectful me! I won’t do business with you again ever! They’re not professional business!

    • Alex Costa

      Sir, We tried fixing this with you. You ordered incorrectly. You had confirmation emails with your order summary, you had time to review shipping order summary and almost 2.5 weeks to verify if you made a mistake. You made a mistake when purchasing a custom, one-off, made to YOUR specifications order. We offered a refund with a restocking fee, and you told us to fuck off. You refused to take any responsibility for ordering incorrectly, telling us it was our fault. Human error is human error. We offered solutions, including a discount to a new purchase after the restocking fee. We were not disrespectful. You call us name, and profanities over the phone. That is disrespectful.

  62. Dylan Phillips (verified owner)

    I currently have 5 holsters from ANR and they are all great. The fit and finish of each holster is top notch while still maintaining a minimalist profile. Im 5′ 10″ 170lbs and I conceal a full size P320 and P10F on my appendix with just a t shirt. The gun disappears, these holsters are that good.

  63. John Fitzpatrick (verified owner)

    Fantastic holster. Awesome retention. Smooth draw. Excellent quality. Love that claw. The tip about using loctite on the screws was appreciated as I had noticed that they were loosening up from all my practice draw’s. Thanks ANR !

    This is my second holster from ANR and it’s perfect like my first one. I forget that even have them on me during times of the day. They just feel right. Both for the guns and for actually carring them. Thank you AC and all the people it takes to get the job done. 🤘🤘🤘

  66. Patrick B (verified owner)

    Love the IWB with claw. It is flawless and the fit it spot on. I’m a lefty and the fit on my anatomy is such that the best location 6-12, is about a 7. It centers over my left back pocket and it’s great. Unfortunately there is no way that I can carry at the 10, 11, 12 positions and 9 is hard to conceal. 7 an 8 work, with 7 being the best for me. No rubbing problem sitting or standing and it’s remarkably comfortable. Thanks for a great product.

  67. Jason (verified owner)

    Got an AIWB for my M&P9 and a deep mag carrier. It’s my first holster but it feels really good.
    Somebody once told me: Carrying a gun is supposed to be comforting, not comfortable. ANR busted that myth.

    I’ve spent my life around tools, machines, equipment, gear, etc. I know quality from junk. ANR makes a tier one high quality holster.

    And for the Instagram crew:
    FUCK YOU, CHAD!

  68. TD (verified owner)

    Very well made and comfortable. Wasn’t sure about the claw, but it makes a huge difference. Love the way it keeps the holster from moving.

  69. Tyler I Carroll (verified owner)

    This holster makes it easy to conceal my q5 match. Hugs nice to the body with minimal printing. I’ve tried leather iwb holsters from various brands. Nothing beats this thing though. Will definitely buy the rest of my holsters from ANR.

  70. Jake (verified owner)

    Bought a AIWB Holster for my CZ SP-01. I’ve owned many firearms and many different holsters and this is by far the best holster I’ve owned. It’s also the best at concealing, even a full size gun. I will never buy another brand of holsters again.

  71. Barry Roberts II (verified owner)

    As anyone who has a IWI Masada there are not many holster out there on the market. But I have to say as a fat man to do appendix this holster is super comfortable and the price is not bad. Thank you for the fast shipping and great communication.

    Review for IWB Appendix Holster w/ Polymer Claw
    Just recently bought my first pistol, a Taurus G2C. ANR came highly recommend by several friends of mine. It’s very well-made, very durable, extremely comfortable, and it doesn’t print at all with the claw. I’ve worn it all day, every day for the past 2 weeks and I’ve had zero discomfort. I will absolutely buy here again.

  73. Niko (verified owner)

    When I bought my P30SK I quickly found out not many kydex builders support the platform, But of course AnRD did. This was my first holster from them and wow did it set a standard not easily met. I carry it at work, 911 EMS 24hrs shifts, and it maintains comfort and concealability. I’ve slept in it, drove in it, and worked in it since ‘October-ish of ‘19’ and I’ve never ha a problem. Very, very, happy.

  74. Chris Lacosse (verified owner)

    Got the holster in the exact time frame quoted. Fits my G43 like a glove but the hook was a little loose when I received it. Just needed a couple of turns on the screws and was all right as rain. Excellent holster and price was deserved.

  75. Adam S (verified owner)

    This holster and company is extremely awesome and I couldn’t be happier with the product and service. My hk vp9 fits perfectly in the holster and conceals like a champ with the aid of the claw.

    Best fucking holster money can buy from the realest motha fucka on the gram! It is my fourth holster won’t be my last! Thanks Alex and John and the rest of the people in the shop fucking badasses!

  77. Jordan Houghton (verified owner)

    Absolutely the best holsters I’ve purchased. I have four, one for an SP-01, Glock 20, P10c lightbearing, and most recently a Glock 48. Super comfortable, great concealability, super high perceived quality (feels really durable but I don’t bash things) and of course they look super cool.

    My new holster made me feel like a teenage girl in the 80’s and my high school crush was outside playing our song out loud on a boombox, waiting for me to come to the window.

    Best holster company I have found, I’m on my 3rd anr holster and will continue to be a customer in the future. Best holster money can buy.
    I’ve had the opportunity to turn several friends on to ANR

    This is my 4th holster from them and 2nd iwb w/claw. As always they make the best holsters. This particular one I just ordered for my g43x fits and looks great.

  81. Joshua Albert (verified owner)

    As a pretty skinny built guy was a little nervous on the comfort and fitment of an appendix iwb holster but i was blown away with how comfy and stealthy these holsters fit. will def be buying more down the road for my other carry guns!

  82. Austin B (verified owner)

    I’m in love with my holster. I got one for my fn 9c and it’s amazing They even polish the edges of the holster so it doesnt rub you. I’m ordering more for all of my carrying pistols. 11/10 reccomend. Also great customer service.

  83. Duncan Miller (verified owner)

    10/10 best holster I own. I definitely will be buying more.

  84. John Anderson

    I bought my IWB for my FN 503, through the FN website, because I couldn’t find a rig I liked anywhere. Got this and was instantly in love with it. Top quality construction, and with the claw, there is zero imprinting, and its’ very comfortable. Now that I’ve found the manufacturer, I’m about to order 2 more for my other carry guns.

  85. Edgar F (verified owner)

    Found out about ANR through Military Arms Channel and this is definitely a step forward for any serious person looking for the best in conceal carry when it comes to concealment and most importantly when it comes to comfort! I drive a lot so having a comfortable set up is a must and I would like to add that I’m also a drummer who practices SEVERAL hours a week without having to take my gun out of my pants which says a lot for the COMFORT! All this while carrying a PPQ which is not the biggest firearm but it does have a threaded barrel. JUST DO IT AND GET THE BEST HOLSTER AVAILABLE! (ANR of course!)

  86. Kosta (verified owner)

    Bought for my M&p, absolutely love it. Can carry all day and if I’m on my feet walking around I don’t even notice it til I go to sit down. On top of that I get to support local business. Can’t wait to get another.

  87. John Anderson (verified owner)

    Don’t let the 4-star throw you, these are the best IWB holsters, and I’ve wasted a sizeable amount of money trying other brands. This is my second ANR, because the first (for my FN503) was absolutely perfect for appendix carry. The second, for my Springfield XDS, also fits beautifully, and doesn’t print. My ONLY issue, is with this second holster, where it leave over an inch of my slide exposed to my abdomen. Not that this is a fatal flaw, but it won’t be good for the finish over the long run, hence the 4-star rating. I hope ANR will fix this in the future. All in all, there are no better products available for your IWB holster needs. I have 2 more handguns I’ll be ordering for this Fall. Oh, did I mention how damned comfortable they are??

    Excellent holster! Very comfortable and holds my 9mm perfectly.

    I like this holster a lot. Small, comfortable, secure, and the claw pulls the butt of my P365XL in nice and tight. The tension was spot on out of the package. I don’t carry AIWB but at 5 o’clock, and this fits nicely, and hides well for my frame. I’m not skinny but am 160# and 5′-9″ so not bony but also with nothing extra to help me conceal. This configuration works very well for me. I only run iron sights.

    Purchased a Canik TP9 Elite AIWB holster with claw for TP9 Combat Executive/ Elite Combat. Holster fits perfect, except the thread protector on the elite combat barrrel would catch on the holster, 2 minutes trimming with a pocket knife and it slides in and out perfectly. Very happy with the Quality of the holster will consider this company again for future purchases!!

    I was at a cc class at Sig Sauer and was carrying my 320c on my hip. One of the instructors talked me into trying appendix.
    He lent me a holster, I wore it all day and loved it. I had to get one and I’m glad I did. It’s the best holster I’ve had. Thanks to the guys at ANR for a great product.

  92. Josh David Engel (verified owner)

    The holster for the Canik TP9 Elite SC fit my pistol Really Well. Thanks.

    My ANR collection includes two of these IWB beauties…one for a Glock 17 and one for a Sig P226. Meticulous detail to construction coupled with prompt and precise customer service keeps me coming back for more.

    Do yourself a favor and invest in the best.

    Great IWB holster – I’ve bought a few now and recommend them to anyone that wants to carry IWB.

  95. mario85chavez (verified owner)

    This is my third Holster from AnR design and I wished I would of bought all my holsters from AnR. I am a big guy 6’ feet 300 pounds and appendix carry all day everyday and finding a good holster is hard. I am the type of guy that changes the ride hight and has to add a wedge right out of the box. I don’t want to name other big holster companies but they have never lived up to the hype for me. Just too bulky and ride too high. AnR holster always hits that sweet spot for me rides and conceals perfect. The best set up for me is a AnR holster with a DCC mono block clip and a diy wedge . I hope if you are reading this it has help you out.

    I’m wrong purchase and now pointless. I went a purchase a iwb holster for a heavy cz75 so-01 smh. My ridiculous self thought..it’s a firearm i can carry iwb (wrong) after receiving and attempting to carry it..it was waaayyy to heavy for conceal carry (5’10, 170 pounds)..eventually i started doing uspsa matches and thought hey..i could use this a ms a holster (no i can not) so now i have a product that i can’t use at all..just went into my holster bin..

    is it sturdy – who knows
    does it hold the firearm- yes
    is it not being used – absolutely not

    went ahead a purchase a bladetech holster for uspsa competition

    I absolutely love this holster. Excellent fit and finish and a great price. They shipped FAST too. Bought it for my CZ 97BD, which is on the large side for aiwb. Will definitely buy from ANR again – they are one of the few companies that make holsters for Arex as well, and I own a few.

  102. Clay Howard (verified owner)

    This is my second holster that I’ve tried for appendix carry and it is my go to holster. It is more comfortable and I feel does a much better job of concealing a larger pistol than my other holster. I highly recommend ANR and their holsers.

  103. Bobby Jackson (verified owner)

    This was my first holster purchase, ever. IWB for my G19. The fit and finish is perfect, super comfortable and I really dig the claw. I will absolutely be ordering others for the rest of my pistols. I also like the website layout, and how easy it is to set up your holster. Thanks again, very happy customer!

  104. Don Santora (verified owner)

    This is quite honestly the perfect holster. I recently purchased my second holster for my p365 and feels great! almost like its not even there! fits perfect and more importantly does its job! no bulkiness and the second height claw option was key! no questions asked these guys will be my go to when i expand my collection or grab an attachment for something i already own!

  105. Robert Beerman (verified owner)

    Love this holster!! Have one for a Sig P320 X-Carry as well as a Glock 30. Always a perfect fit. The optic cut is awesome. The claw works great. Wouldn’t change a thing.

  106. Devante Riggins (verified owner)

    The best holster I’ve ever owned…and I own about 6 from all different brands. I ordered an IWB Holster with an optic cut and claw. I always thought the claw was some kinda marketing gimmick because I was ignorant to what it did. However after about 3 months of using it…the way the claw pushes the gun closer to my body makes it more comfortable to carry and it conceals better. I carry a P80 in the (G19) size. So my other holster would print a lot in certain times depending on what I wore. I had a “We The People” holster and the retention was laughably loose and the belt clip wasn’t the best. I couldn’t really carry it with basketball shorts or sweatpants. I say all of this to say: buy once, cry once. Cheap isn’t always good. You never know the difference in quality till you take a leap of faith and upgrade. My other holster wasn’t even Kydex as they advertised. The materials are so VASTLY different it kinda blew me away. Since I’m adding a light to my duty gun, I’ll be shopping and recommending A&R to everyone in my inner circle.

  107. Joshua Bailey (verified owner)

    Got this for my Arex Delta M gen 2. Very happy with this product. This gun/holster combination actually allows me to AIWB moderately comfortable for the first time. Shipping was a bit slow because ANR was setting up a new shop, but this was communicated to me and they gave me free expedited shipping on my order when it was ready. Excellent product.

  108. Bob Ryan (verified owner)

    Excellent holster! I’ve tried a few others but this is the best I’ have ever used. Stumbled onto ANR while reading “www.thefirearmblog.com” and I am glad I did. Thanks much for the excellent workmanship and ease of ordering.

  109. Dee (verified owner)

    Great holster for everyday carry. Fits my G17 like a glove and superb retention adjustment. Claw is a must for larger pistols and really works for maximum concealment. Will be ordering again in the near future. Fast shipping to Europe and cost to ship is 100% worth it.

  110. Brandon Drath

    Amazing holster. Quality craftsmanship. Super comfortable. Don’t currently own it anymore due to the fact that I sold the gun with the holster, but it performed terrifically. Will definitely own more for future guns!

  111. mark lowery (verified owner)

    i ordered an AIWB w/ the claw. the holster looks and feels great but i had an issue with the claw being slightly to low and it would slip off the belt line and go under the belt and get hooked. i messaged them, explained my issue and asked if they made a taller claw. they do not, but what they did for me was even better. i shipped the original back and they made me a brand new holster moving the claw up slightly fixing my issue. they didn’t have to do it, BUT THEY DID! great customer service, great holster.
    good companies DO still exist! thank you anr for being one of those companies

  112. Geno (verified owner)

    Excellent IWB holster. Fits my SCCY CPX-2 with red dot optics to a T. Conceals well. Retention is excellent and adjustable. Well made holster. I would recommend this holster.

  113. Alexander Butler (verified owner)

    This is the 4th Holster I have purchased and my 2nd IWB. Fits great for EDC and also love all the options for colors that they offer. Everything is top-notch.

  114. Simon de Wit (verified owner)

    Purchased 11 of these for Glock 27’s for my team. They fit great and sit lower than our previous holsters so easy to conceal. They have adjustable screws to increase the retention which we had to do on every one.

    • Alex Costa

      Thanks again! And for the feedback!

  115. Chris Fransen (verified owner)

    Claw mounting holes unnecessarily large for screw OD, causing excessive ‘swing’ in the claw arm. Tightening these mounting screws also affects the retention, so either I have a loose, swinging claw or excessively tight retention of the firearm. Also, this holster lacks any adjustment to firearm concealment depth. For my body type (6′, 175lbs) I wanted to adjust the depth to move the muzzle off the pubic bone, which was causing pretty severe discomfort, so my only option is to make adjustments to how high/low I wear my pants, which is normally at the hip.

    Materials and craftsman ship seem fine, outside of the claw issue. Shipping was fast, price was discounted due to holiday sale, which is what prompted me to give ANR a try. For background, I have multiple holsters for this CZ P01, which I have carried for over 6 years at this point. Normally carried IWB @ 3:30-4 in a Stealthgear ventcore mini.

    I didn’t outright give up on this holster and have worn it in public for several hours on multiple occasions and with trying different locations between 12 and 1:30 on body, but haven’t been able to find a comfortable way to work with this.

    I did give ANR a call to discuss and see what advice or options they might be able to offer. The call went to VM and I left a message, which wasn’t returned. I recognize their policy of ‘all sales final’ so I’m not complaining about that. I just thought that others might benefit from my experience. There are better options available from other manufacturers, which include concealment depth adjustability, isolation of retention adjustment, ‘hybrid’ materials, etc.

    • Alex Costa

      Our holsters are certainly geared more towards appendix. We try to get to the VM when we can. We have a chat service and you can send a ticket through CS using the contact page and will yield faster response times. We are a small shop and getting to the phone can be tough in a manufacturing facility.

  116. chris maga (verified owner)

    Excellent holster! Only reason for not being 5 stars is there isn’t an option to select external safety/no external thumb safety. So for my S&W M&P with no safety, the holster still has the outward formed section in the top to accommodate one. Not a big deal, but it does make the very top of the holster facing the body a little less flat and streamlined than it could be. Retention is at a good level and the holster fits the pistol with the RDS well. I appreciate it coming with a second smaller interchangeable claw for adjustment in carry preference-

  117. Eric (verified owner)

    The holster I received is decent. It looks good on the outside, but looks a little sloppy on the inside. I won’t judge it for that though.

    I have a couple issues with the holster, however. The first is that the groove for the iron sights is off center. Also, the holster rubs excessively on my slide. Both issues occur no matter how tight or loose the screws are set. And both issues cause kydex shavings to build up on my pistol.

    The second issue I have is that the plastic clip has unclipped itself from my belt several times. That would be a huge issue in a self defense scenario. I hope the metal clip is better.

    Overall, the holster is good enough. And I’m glad they make one for the P2000. But you may want to consider upgrading the clip.

    • Alex Costa

      We use molds and real guns for this model specifically. We make so few P2000 holsters so there are handmade nuances and a break-in period for the gun. Add some gun oil to the points of contact in the holster causing wear. Unclipping from the belt is indicative of a poor belt design for carrying a gun. The upgraded clip is great for NON gun-belts. What kind of belt are you running? Have you gotten the gun hot and run it from your holster in training?

  118. Danny (verified owner)

    Best holster really comfortable and your pistol doesn’t print at all i love this holster , great job on that, easy to select and fast delivery great experience 100 stars for you.

    Fuc**n fantastic! Came from a oversized heavy crossbreed, this thing is night and day better slimmer, lighter, sits higher for comfort sitting, kydex in one piece for long time durability; stoked!

    It was very hard trying to locate a company that had the ability to produce a holster for my FN. When I ran across ANR Design I did notice that they were the highest priced in the market, but it was well worth the cost. The grip highly aggressive and the IWB holster hides the full size weapon and keeps the handguard off my bare skin. Will be buying from this company again.

    I’m only one my third holster from ANR, very surprised it’s taking me this long to review. Everything in this holster is superb. I’ve been carrying a Staccato P all winter, now moving into warm weather carry I’ll have a Walther PDP, and carrying all day has been a breeze, even with the heavier Staccato. Do yourself a favor and buy this (with the deep carry mag holster) and put it all together with a quality belt. You’ll never go back. Long Live ANR

  122. Shawn

    its a really comfortable holster. I love everything about it other than the claw moves a lot. Maybe the holes for the claw could be smaller to give a tighter fit. Could also put a sleeve or bushing around the screw to make everything fit a little tighter?

  123. Les (verified owner)

    My second ANR iwb holster…this time for a Springfield XD-M Elite 3.8 in 10mm. Perfect fit, the claw is awesome, and the holster is quite comfortable. The best IWB holsters I have found…highly recommended this quality product.

    I would like to preface my review by articulating that I had worked for a holster company for a couple of years.

    I was skeptical at first as to whether or not I was a fan of not having the means to adjust the cant or ride height however, I will say that the ride height on my Cz 75 PCR is perfect. I thought it would be much more difficult to conceal the pistol without the aforementioned means and I was entirely mistaken. I would say this holster, with the claw, allows me to conceal the CZ to the same degree that my holster for G43 (no extensions/flushfit mag) with no claw; further, I would have to carry my G48 (with a comp/also flushfit mags) on the lowest ride height with any of my other holsters with a claw and it still would not conceal as nicely as the ANR holster that I purchased. I am now a huge fan and plan to order holsters from them for all of my other needs/wants. Whenever asked for a recommendation, I will point this way.

    • Alex Costa

    One of the if not these best holster for a nice minimalit slick carry. Have a few now, most recent in Coyote Tan which is just a fantastic look. Also have purchased a few premium patterns and wthout fail they are on point every time. The lone time I had a slight fittment issue, the customer service team was ready to help me out within minutes and had everything fixed up immediately. Awesome product, great team and amazing customer engagement on IG which is huge. Will continue to add to the collection of ANR holsters.

    This will be at least my 10th holster from anr in my opinion they produce a far superior product in an already saturated market.

    So I totally goofed it and ordered a left handed holster when I needed a right handed holster. ANR customer service was awesome! They refunded my original order and sent me back the holster I needed in a timely manner. Great company with great products I’m very happy with my purchase.

    G21 holster, mag carrier and accessories are all top notch, as usual! The G30 will also fit in the G21 holster (perhaps not the G30S).
    Always remember to threadlock the hardware once you have the tension adjusted to your preference.
    ANRDesign is my go-to kydex holster maker.

    I’ve bought several of these holsters for my different pistols over the years and they are outstanding! I had one crack after years of use and it was likely because I changed to solid bushings to use a neomag T post instead of using the rubber ones the holster comes with. Great product, the fit and finish is always been great. Ive got another in the mail as I type this.

    Old guy with his first pistol; H&K VP9SK, factory installed Holosun red dot. Figured if I bought a carry gun I should carry. To take classes and learn how to carry responsibly I needed a holster. I read tons of stuff and ran cross ANR in some obscure blog. Must have put this AIWB holster in a cart and got cold feet a dozen times. Finally just bought it with the mag holder to boot. It took a long time to get it, but I wasn’t in a hurry as I’d not even signed up for classes yet. Got it two days ago; first day I hooked it to the casual belt I’d worn to work and it was uncomfortable. Second day I hooked it to a proper EDC belt (had just arrived in the mail) and just hung around the house. Unloaded, just getting used to it. Thoughts on it before locking up the tool for the night. I like it, it’s my first so I don’t have any holster experience to compare to but it looks nice, it fits nice, the hardware, fit, and finish all look to be top notch, and just like the ANR YouTube vid said; get a real belt. A proper EDC belt made all the difference in comfort and the rig feels right on my waist. I look forward to taking some classes and getting comfortable with my new stuff. I have zero buyers remorse and will purchase from ANR again without question.

    Needed an appendix holster for a Browning Hi Power, and ANR is about the only game in town, so tried this product for the first time. Holster itself is great. Plenty of room for extended/wide thumb safeties like Novak’s. Is quite comfortable and conceals very well, with one caveat. The top/front corner of the clip stands very proud and prints a fair bit in lighter shirts. It’s not a huge deal and can be mitigated, but I intend to try the DCC mono clip as a fix. I bought a second ANR holster for a Glock since this one works so well with the Hi Power.

    • Alex Costa

      Body type and clothing choice can change appearance of printing. I carry and Browning Hi Power and it doesn’t print at all. Thanks for the review.

    This is my sixth ANR holster, this IWB for my Shield Plus and I couldn’t be happier. The craftsmanship and the milling are perfect, which goes without saying on ANR products. The design is just what I need, with the claw pressing the grip to my torso and making it non-printing even with a standard T shirt or buttoned shirt. I’ve tried other IWB’s for this gun, and despite looking the same, all the others placed it too deep or something like that. It was difficult to get a good grip on the pistol on drawing; something was always in the way. I returned them.

    But not with this one. I can’t figure out why exactly, but even with the claw, the grip is quickly accessible.

    The customer service is excellent, “three Michelin stars” as the French might put it. I have NEVER had an issue with a minor problem, which was always handled with a pre-paid label sent immediately by email, and the refit holster sent back in 10 working days.

    And if it’s alright with Adam Painchaud, it’s OK with me.

    BTW, one of the reviewers above is right, I, too, can’t find a High Power holster other than at ANR. It will be my next order.

      Thank you so much for the kind words Jay!
