Bianchi Model 397 Tornado Slr Holster S&W 4006 .40 Cal. Right Hand Plain Black
$99.24
The Bianchi Model 397 Tornado SLR holster is a duty-grade leather holster built for law enforcement and serious shooters who carry an S&W 4006 .40 caliber pistol. This right-hand holster combines proven retention design with the craftsmanship Bianchi has earned over decades in the duty gear market. If you need a holster that holds up to daily wear and stays secure during movement, the Tornado SLR delivers without unnecessary complexity.
The holster starts with premium vegetable-tanned full-grain cowhide that's wet-molded directly around a cast model of the 4006, ensuring a precise fit for your specific pistol. The leather is vat-dyed for consistent color saturation and hand-burnished to create a finish that looks professional and withstands the wear of regular carry. That meticulous construction translates to a holster that conforms perfectly to your gun and feels broken in from day one.
Retention comes from the Side-Lok weapon retention mechanism working in tandem with the Pinch Retention Device (PRD). This two-stage system keeps your 4006 secure without forcing you to unlearn your standard draw stroke. The design respects conventional training, so if you're transitioning from another holster or duty rig, the draw feels intuitive. The holster is configured for right-hand carry and finished in plain black leather.
