The Deluxe Full-Size Quick-Snap holster is hand crafted with double military directional steel snaps on each leather strap for double the security. Features about the A-5: leather reinforced mouth piece to help retain the holster opening for easy re-holstering. Sweat shield or body shield is a key feature to help protect you from the sharp edges on the weapon; while also protecting the weapon from your body oils and sweat. The New Deluxe Full-Size Quick-Snap fully conceals the full length of the weapon while carrying OWB. Each holster comes with a deep mold of the outlines of the specific firearm, which is only done by a technique called hand boning. This technique is created by one of our professional leather craftsman to ensure a proper fitment of the weapon for long term use.
The A-5 Deluxe full-size quick-snap is a major step up from our original design B-3 and B-4. This is the 3rd generation of this type of holster from us. This gives each generation of holsters a major difference in function, features and feel. One of the main differences between the first and second generation and the new Deluxe Full-Size Quick-Snap holster there’s a small forward cant 15 degrees to the weapon for easy draw of the weapon. The A-5 features a slight wider profile in width to enable a nice comfortable contouring of the holster to the body. This will create the weapon and holster to stay concealed against the body. The profile of the holster will be less noticeable under a shirt.
FYI: The straps may be turned in the opposite direction, by using a screw driver to undue each snap from the strap. This will give you the option to unsnap the strap by pushing from the top of the strap or by pulling the strap from the bottom. Choose which way works best for you; it’s a preference of choice.
Keep in mind the leather belt loops/straps can fit up to 1-1/2 gun belt (2 layer ¼” thick) or 1-3/4 regular belt (1 layer thinner belt).
**The additional picture provided is one of our most popular selling holsters. It’s mahogany color with tiger shark trim.
NOTE: DUE TO THE FACT THAT OUR STRAPS ARE INTERCHANGABLE, THREAD LOCKER IS NOT APPLIED DURING THE PRODUCTION PHASE. PLEASE APPLY A BLUE THREAD LOCKER TO YOUR HARDWARE. LOST HARDWARE WILL BE REPLACED AT THE CUSTOMERS EXPENSE.

I bought an A-5 Deluxe quick snap for a 3″ 1911 a while ago from you. I am an experienced gun carrier, long time gun owner and an NRA instructor. After wearing the A-5 most every day for a few months now, I have to tell you, it is the BEST holster that I have ever owned. It even smells good, at least it did when I got it. It holds the gun securely but not so tight as to hinder my draw. It goes on and off easily, even while my belt and pants are on my body and it rides comfortably all the time, sitting, standing and driving. You make an excellent product. Thank you.

Since I wrote that review I have purchased two additional Deluxe Quick-Snap holsters for two other guns. Excellent holsters all.

The craftsmanship and quality is out of this world. This is one of the best looking holsters that I have ever seen. I bought it for my Glock 43 and it fits like a glove. The only thing I don’t like is the cant of the holster. It is too much of an angle for me and I will probably never use this holster. This is only my personal preference. Again, this is one of the best holsters when it comes to quality. I will buy another one, but I’ll go with the B3 holster.

Purchased this holster for my new S&W Shield in .45. Many other companies have holsters for the 9mm and .40 Shields, but not many are producing for the .45. Whereas you can force the .45 into the 9mm holster, the .45 is just enough bigger and has a slightly different profile so it is NOT a custom fit. MTR was one of the few companies to offer a holster for the .45. The holster I received from MTR is a PERFECT fit for the .45. The workmanship is superb. I have previously purchased most of my leather holsters from a very old and reputable company. They have been making leather holsters for over 100 years, but do not offr a holster for the Shield .45. The holster I received from MTR (for slightly less cost) far exceeded the quality of holsters from my previous supplier. The dark brown mahogany color is great, the holster is easy to put on and take off, and took only using for a day to completely break-in. Draw is very easy yet retention is secure enough.
You have gained a new/loyal customer and I will be recommending your products to my students.

Took way too long to get it. I realize I asked for it to be made to fit the pistol with a viridian laser attachment, and the installed magnet for the switch, but 14 weeks?

Fit and finish of the holster was great and shows a high attention to detail. My FN 5.7 mkII fit snuggle in the contours of the holster and will need a small amount of adjustment. Overall I am very pleased with my purchase and plan on making future purchases.

Very nicely made holster. Fit perfectly to my S&W Shield 380 EZ with Crimson Trace green laser. Took only a short time to break in.

I ordered this holster in mahogany with black shark skin trim. It is exactly what I hoped it would be. Quality leather and craftsmanship. Functional yet beautiful. I love supporting a local NC Christian family-owned business. Ordered a mahogany belt as well and after receiving it, ordered a black belt. Now planning to order a holster for my 1911. So many choices to customize for a unique look. I would definitely recommend MTR Custom Leather to anyone. Thanks for a beautiful quality product!

I have a number of these holsters from MTR. This one was made for a Beretta M9A3 that had a Langdon Tactical optic slide on it. The slide includes suppressor height sights. After sending the specifications, MTR went to work. The results were well worth the wait. It fits perfectly and can be quite comfortable to carry.

I have three of the Deluxe Quick Snap holsters, one each for my Glock 43, 48, and 19. VERY well-made holsters. What I particularly like is the ability to put on and take off without either unholstering the firearm or doing and un-doing my belt.

Repeat customer here. This is my second A-5, the first being for a S&W Shield .45, this most recent one for a S&W Shield Plus 9mm. Both are excellent quality and fairly priced. I’d recommend the additional liner and second row of stitching which increases retention. Turnaround time was very reasonable.
