Frequently Asked Questions
Will the Galco FL652R fit my S&W M&P Shield or Ruger Max-9?
Yes. The FL652R is purpose-built for the Smith & Wesson M&P Shield, Ruger Max-9, and FN 503. Verify your specific pistol model before ordering to ensure compatibility.
Is this a right-hand or left-hand holster?
The FL652R Fletch is a right-hand holster, meaning it's designed for shooters who draw and fire with their right hand. Galco offers left-hand configurations under different model numbers if you need right-side carry.
What's the difference between a belt slide and other OWB attachment methods?
A belt slide holster loops over your belt without snaps, screws, or complex hardware. It's simple, durable, and creates a secure carry position through the friction fit between leather and leather or leather and belt material. The trade-off is that belt slides work best with proper belt thickness and material.
Does the leather need break-in time?
Leather holsters naturally mold to your body and your gun with use. Expect the FL652R to feel stiff initially; over time, the leather softens and conforms, improving both comfort and retention characteristics. This is a feature, not a flaw.
