- Why Bulletproof Zone?
The 1791 Gunleather BH24S is an open-top, right-hand belt holster handcrafted from 100% Certified American Heavy Native Steerhide leather, designed to fit compact and carry-sized versions of full-frame firearms with 4-inch barrels. Its multi-fit design accommodates a wide range of pistols, including optic-ready configurations, in Stealth Black finish.
Leather Built to Last
The BH24S is constructed from 100% Certified American Heavy Native Steerhide leather, a dense, durable hide that holds its shape under daily carry. Reinforced stitching runs throughout the holster, adding structural integrity at the stress points that see the most use during draw and re-holster cycles.
Open Top for a Clean, Fast Draw
The open-top design removes the retention strap from the draw path entirely, allowing a smooth, unobstructed presentation regardless of carry style. Retention is provided by the holster's molded fit rather than an active mechanism, so the firearm stays secure during movement while clearing cleanly when needed.
Multi-Fit Compatibility Across Compact Platforms
The BH24S seats compact and carry-sized pistols with 4-inch barrels flush and is built to accommodate the smaller carry variants of full-frame firearms. The optic-ready designation means the holster mouth is cut to clear common slide-mounted optics without requiring a separate model. The confirmed compatibility list spans more than three dozen pistols from FN Herstal, Heckler & Koch, Sig Sauer, Walther, Ruger, and others. See the Specifications section for the full list.

Who This Is For and Isn't
The BH24S suits right-handed carriers who want a leather belt holster with passive open-top retention for a compact or carry-sized pistol, particularly those running a slide-mounted optic on one of the listed compatible platforms. The multi-fit design makes it a practical choice for shooters who own more than one pistol on the compatibility list.
This holster is not configured for left-hand draw. It does not include active retention (thumb break or hood), so it is not suited to applications that require a retention-rated duty holster. Firearms not on the confirmed compatibility list are not guaranteed to fit, and full-size pistols with barrels longer than 4 inches are outside the stated design intent.
Common Questions
Which firearms fit the BH24S?
The 1791 Gunleather BH24S is confirmed to fit more than three dozen compact and carry-sized pistols with 4-inch barrels, including models from FN Herstal, Heckler & Koch, Sig Sauer, Walther, Ruger, CZ, and others. The full confirmed list appears in the Specifications table above. Firearms not on that list are not guaranteed to fit.
Does the BH24S work with a pistol that has a slide-mounted optic?
Yes. The BH24S carries an optic-ready designation, meaning the holster mouth is cut to clear slide-mounted optics on compatible pistols without requiring a separate model or modification. Confirm your specific optic footprint is compatible before purchase if your setup is non-standard.
What type of retention does the BH24S use?
The 1791 Gunleather BH24S uses passive, open-top retention: the firearm is held by the molded fit of the leather rather than a strap, thumb break, or active locking mechanism. This allows a clean, unobstructed draw but does not meet retention ratings required for some duty or uniformed-carry applications.
Is the BH24S available for left-hand draw?
The variant carried by Bulletproof Zone is configured for right-hand draw only. A left-hand version is not offered in this listing. Contact us if you need help identifying a left-hand option.
Are there any purchase or shipping restrictions for this holster?
The 1791 Gunleather BH24S is a non-ballistic leather holster and is not subject to the body armor shipping restrictions that apply to plates, soft armor, and ballistic gear. No state-level purchase restrictions apply to this product. Standard order and shipping terms from Bulletproof Zone apply.

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.

- 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.

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.
