SEMI-AUTO SUMMER SPECIAL 2

SEMI-AUTO SUMMER SPECIAL 2 Reviews & Ratings

Classic inside the waistband holster offers optimum concealment and comfort. Open top style for a quick draw; wet molded to an exact fit for excellent retention. Steel reinforced top always remains open for easy, one hand reholstering. Rough-side-out texture grips clothing to prevent holster from shifting. Protective backflap prevents thumb safety from snagging on clothing; keeps slide from digging into your ribs. Sewn-in leather sight channel. Belt loops feature secure, one-way directional snaps. SIG P220-226 Holster does not fit guns with light rails.


SPECS: Leather, tan. 1-Ѕ" (3.2cm) belt loops.

Works With Ruger RXM
Milt Sparks makes some of the finest leather available. Retention is good and fit and finish are top notch. I carry it at a 3 o’clock position and it conceals nicely. I carry a Ruger RXM and it doesn’t fit quite as tight as an actual Glock 19 but it’s still adequate; I attribute that to the difference in the shape of the trigger guard not quite matching up to the Glock used to mold the holster. Overall, I would highly recommend the Summer Special II and all Milt Sparks products for that matter. It’s nice they are available at Brownell’s and you don’t have to go through several months of waiting to receive it. Maybe they should offer the Versa Max as well (hint hint).

Great Holster/Small Belt Loop
The Summer Special II is an excellent holster and it fit my GLOCK 26 perfectly. Unfortunately, the belt loops didn’t work with a couple of the belts I use for concealed carry. The snaps on the loops are directional and there wasn’t enough room left to close the snaps. Similarly, the thickness of one of my gun belts made is such that it couldn’t be threaded through the loops when the snaps were already closed. The snaps closed if I used a thin 1.5” gun belt, but was hit or miss with my thicker leather and nylon 1.5” gun belts. The holster would be better if the belt loop was slightly bigger to accommodate thicker belts and I’d prefer the loops to be black rather than tan, since I typically wear black belts.

The best!

Great Service
I placed an order for a Milt Sparks holster on a Sunday and I received the order on Wednesday. Mind you, I live in Arizona and coming all that way, in three days, I felt was about as speedy as you can get 👍. I would also like to say that all of my previous orders in the past from Brownell's have been prompt and accurate. Thank you.
