1791 Gunleather BH2.4 Optic Ready Right Hand Belt Holster

The 1791 Gunleather BH2.4 is an open-top, multi-fit belt holster handcrafted from 100% Certified American Heavy Native Steerhide leather, designed for right-hand draw and built to fit a wide range of full-frame pistols with barrels from 4 to 5 inches. An optic cut accommodates most pistol optics, making the BH2.4 a practical choice for shooters running red dots or other slide-mounted sights. Available in Stealth Black.

Handcrafted Leather Built to Last

The BH2.4 is constructed from 100% Certified American Heavy Native Steerhide leather, a dense, durable hide that holds its shape under daily use and develops a functional fit to the carried firearm over time. Reinforced stitching runs throughout the holster, adding structural integrity at the stress points most likely to see wear during repeated draw cycles. For a shooter who wants a leather holster that holds up across years of use rather than seasons, the material and construction here are built with that expectation.

Open Top Design for a Clean Draw

The open-top configuration removes the retention strap from the draw path entirely, allowing a full firing grip on the pistol before it clears the holster. This suits shooters who prioritize draw speed and prefer to rely on the holster's passive retention (the friction fit of quality steerhide against the firearm) rather than an active retention device. The design is intentional and consistent with how the BH2.4 is built: straightforward, with nothing in the way when it matters.

Wide Compatibility, Including Optic-Ready Pistols

The multi-fit design accommodates a broad range of full-frame pistols without requiring model-specific tooling. The optic cut built into the holster body means shooters running a pistol optic do not need to remove the sight to holster the firearm, a practical detail for anyone who carries or trains with an optic-equipped pistol. The Specifications table below lists the specific models confirmed as fits.

Who This Is For and Isn't

The BH2.4 suits right-handed shooters who carry or train with a full-frame pistol, including those running a pistol optic, and who want a leather belt holster with passive open-top retention. It is a practical fit for range use, duty belt setups, or everyday carry where a leather holster is preferred over a polymer option.

This holster is not designed for left-hand draw. It does not include an active retention device, so it is not suited for applications where a retention strap or level-II/III retention system is required. It is built for full-frame pistols with 4–5 inch barrels; compact and subcompact pistols are not listed as compatible fits.

Common Questions

Which pistols fit the 1791 Gunleather BH2.4?

The BH2.4 is a multi-fit holster designed for full-frame pistols with barrel lengths from 4 to 5 inches. Confirmed fits include Beretta 92FS and M9, CZ 75 and P09, Sig Sauer P220, P226, P227, P320 and P320 Tacops, Springfield XD Mod.2 4" and XDM variants, Heckler & Koch USP Tactical, VP Tactical and VP40, Ruger American and Security-9, Walther PPQ, Taurus PT92-AFD and TH9, and several others. See the full compatibility list in the Specifications table above.

Does the BH2.4 work with a pistol that has a red dot or other optic mounted?

Yes. The 1791 Gunleather BH2.4 includes an optic cut in the holster body that accommodates most pistol optics. Shooters running a slide-mounted red dot or similar sight on a compatible full-frame pistol can holster the firearm without removing the optic.

Is the BH2.4 available for left-hand draw?

The 1791 Gunleather OR-BH24-SBL-R is configured for right-hand draw only. A left-hand variant is not offered in this listing. If you need a left-hand holster, contact us and we can check availability across the broader 1791 Gunleather lineup.

What kind of retention does the BH2.4 use?

The 1791 Gunleather BH2.4 uses an open-top design with passive friction retention. The holster secures the firearm through the natural fit of the steerhide leather against the pistol, with no retention strap or active retention device. This allows a fast, unobstructed draw but means the holster is not rated for any active retention level.

How is the BH2.4 attached to a belt?

The 1791 Gunleather BH2.4 is a belt holster. Belt slot width and attachment style are not specified. Contact us before ordering if your belt width or attachment system is a specific requirement.

The Bulletproof Zone Promise

When you buy body armor, you're buying your safety. We don't take that lightly. Here's what every order from Bulletproof Zone includes.

1. Authorized dealer of every brand we carry

Every plate, vest, and carrier we ship comes from the manufacturer directly to our warehouse. We don't sell gray-market product, surplus, or returns. That means factory-fresh stock, the full manufacturer warranty, and real after-sale support — the kind only an authorized dealer can offer.

We maintain authorized-dealer relationships with America's leading body armor brands, including Spartan Armor Systems, AR500 Armor, RMA Defense, Shellback Tactical, Caliber Armor, DFNDR Armor, Protection Group Denmark, BulletSafe, BulletBlocker, and over 40 more.

2. Best price, guaranteed

If you find a lower price at another authorized dealer of the same product within six months of your purchase, we'll refund the difference.

Why the "authorized dealer" requirement? Because gray-market and surplus armor may not be genuine, may have a compromised supply chain, and almost never comes with a manufacturer warranty. We won't price-match against products that may not actually protect you.

3. Free fitment consultation

Body armor only protects you if it fits. Email us a photo and your measurements before you order, and one of our specialists will help you size your carrier and plates correctly — at no charge, no obligation.

4. Trusted by thousands of customers

Bulletproof Zone has been a trusted authorized dealer of America's leading body armor manufacturers for over five years. We have over 4,000 verified Trustpilot reviews from real customers across all 50 states.

Price Match Guarantee — Terms

  • You must have purchased the item from our website before requesting the price match.
  • Discounted items and "free with purchase" items are not eligible.
  • The item must be in stock on the competitor's website at the time of your request.
  • The price match is valid for six months from the date of your purchase.
  • The competitor must be an authorized dealer of the product. Auction sites (eBay, Overstock), discounters, and gray-market resellers do not qualify.
  • The competitor must operate an online store. Brick-and-mortar-only retailers do not qualify.
  • Price match applies to the item price plus shipping. Sales tax is excluded.

To request a price match, email us a link to the product on our site and the same product on the competitor's site within six months of purchase. We'll process the refund.
