I absolutely love my Alien Gear ShapeShift OWB holster.
I have a few different holsters from Alien Gear and they are all exceptional.
I love the build, feel, looks of them.
This Holster is even better with the thumb release.
Alien Gear is the ONlY brand holsters I will use.
Highly recommended!! (Posted on 1/4/2021)

So far so good Review by Michael

Just received holster tonight. First, I was able to contact chat late in the evening since they are based in PST and I'm in eastern. Customer Service answered all my questions. So after loosening the retention, the holster was still very tight getting firearm in and out. I opened the shell up and noticed the catch that goes over the trigger guard when you press down the thumb release, was not fully depressing. I took some gun oil spray and sprayed the catch and the thumb release shaft. I put it back together and it working perfectly at this time. Hopefully that solved that issue. It came with the paddle and belt loop attachment. With the paddle on and because of the way it attaches, it does move right to left some what while walking. It's not real bad and if you are wearing body armor it will wiork fine. Otherwise use the belt attachment since that fits more flush . But with the belt attachment, you lose the quick release. So you have different opinions. (Posted on 11/10/2020)

The holster is just awesome I love how you can mix and match "shapeshift" with different pieces. I was first upset about an order issue but now that its all done I'm really loving these holsters. I plan to buy more
. Thanks, Alien (Posted on 9/11/2020)

Not for me Review by Garett1169

I love the design, but it sticks out way to far for me. I like to have an owb but close to me. this has almost 2" of space between my body and the actual holster. (Posted on 8/26/2020)

Alien Gear Holsters responded:

Hello Ken! Thank you so much for reaching out and we do apologize for this. With paddle holsters they do general cause alot of spacing between the holster and your body. For any one looking for a holster that stays snug up to your body we definitely recommend any type of holster with belt loops so you can keep the holster and firearm up close to your body. We hope this helps for your future purchases!

After ordering a paddle holster I knew I wanting to get the Shape Shift Modular Holster system because it comes with everything. There team works hard at both delivering the holster and keeping tabs on when the holster should arrive I will definitely be buying more shells from these guys for my other guns thanks for the awesome holsters (Posted on 8/19/2020)

365 holster not so good Review by Shemp

The holster arrived promptly and set up the way I ordered it.

I wore the holster for about a week on duty as a Police Officer. As I was standing, the holster suddenly was upside down. The top screw came out causing the holster to be top side down. I examined the holster and found the bottom screw to be loose too.

I understand that this can happen but I sent a "chat" to the company and they never responded. I even asked for additional screws since one was now missing.

I was able to find another screw to secure the holster for now, so based on the incident and the failure of the company to reach out to me, I would not recommend the product. (Posted on 7/30/2020)

Alien Gear Holsters responded:

Hello Dan! Thank you for the review and we do apologize for screw falling out. We recommend to apply a little bit of Blue Loctite to the threads of your screws to seal them in place. With walking, running, jumping, etc the screws can come out with a thread locker keeping it in place. Please reach out to our customer service if you can any additional questions!

Would recommend Review by Curtis

I ordered this merely as a last resort because I couldn't find a holster for my M&P 45 Shield I liked that would fit. I HATED spending $63(after shipping and tax) on it but the second I took the holster out and holstered the firearm I IMMEDIATELY stopped caring about the cost. It slid in with an audible "Click" from the active retention and there was absolutely ZERO rattle. It fit snug as a glove from the word go and I LOVE it. (Posted on 2/15/2019)
