Frequently Asked Questions
Which pistols do you make holsters for?
We currently mold shells for Glock, Sig Sauer, Smith & Wesson, Springfield, FN, CZ, H&K, Canik, Walther, Staccato, and Archon. Every shell is made for one specific model, and for the GHOST line one specific weapon light, so pick the exact combination that is on your pistol. If you are not sure which shell fits, use the Find Your Holster tool and answer three questions.
What is the difference between ORIGIN and GHOST?
ORIGIN is the slim, non light bearing shell molded around the bare pistol. It is the smallest footprint and the easiest to conceal under a t-shirt. GHOST is molded around the pistol and a weapon light together, so it fits shooters who run a Streamlight TLR-1, TLR-7 series, or Surefire X300 and refuse to give up concealment. Both lines use the same Kydex, the same clip, and carry the same lifetime warranty.
Will your holsters fit my gun, light, and optic setup?
Use the fit guide. Pick your gun model, light, and optic style. The guide shows rigs that match. No guessing and no hidden footnotes.
How do I carry it, and what about left hand?
Every shell ships set up for appendix (AIWB) carry with a standard belt clip, and you can shift the clip slightly for strong side. A stiffer gun belt keeps the holster stable through the draw. Most shells are built for right hand draw. Left hand options are listed on the left hand holsters page.
Can I adjust the retention?
There are no retention screws to fiddle with. Every shell is pre tuned on the bench and retention tested before it ships, so the pistol clicks in and stays where you put it, draw after draw. If retention ever needs attention after months of carry, message us and we handle it under warranty at no cost.
I carry appendix with a 'dad bod.' Will this feel comfortable?
Many customers with bigger builds run appendix. Start with a TUKD ORIGIN, or a TUKD GHOST if you run a weapon light. Set ride height so the muzzle line does not rest on a bone. Add a wedge if you need more pressure spread. Wear a proper carry belt, not a thin dress belt.
Do your holsters print under a t-shirt or polo?
Every TUKD rig uses wing and wedge geometry to pull the grip in. Shirt choice and body type still matter, but designs target the 'prints like crazy' problem from the start.
Will my red dot and light clear the holster?
Shells are cut for most slide mounted red dots in the RMR, Holosun, and Romeo footprint families. GHOST shells are molded around the exact light you select, so a TLR-7A shell will not fit an X300 and vice versa. Choose the light that is actually on your pistol.
Where and how are the holsters made?
Every holster is hand formed from Kydex in our workshop in Las Vegas, Nevada. We mold, trim, bevel, and polish each shell by hand, then retention test it before it goes in the box. Nothing is mass produced overseas.
Why choose TUKD over a cheaper Amazon holster?
Cheap rigs often use thin shells, sharp edges, weak clips, and random fit claims. TUKD shells use 0.08 Kydex, steel hardware with thread locker, and real fit testing for each setup. A rig that stays comfortable and secure keeps the gun on your belt instead of in a drawer.
Where do you ship from, and how fast?
Orders ship from Las Vegas, Nevada. Every holster is hand formed to order, so most orders ship within about 5 business days. See the shipping policy for carriers and transit times.
What is your warranty?
Lifetime warranty on shells and hardware under normal use. If a shell cracks or a clip or screw fails, reach out with photos and order info. We repair or replace. Details on the warranty page.
What is your return policy?
Thirty days from delivery. Wear the holster at home, in your car, and on your normal route. If the fit does not work for your body or setup, contact support and we set up a return or exchange. Details on the return and refund page.
Do you offer law enforcement or military pricing?
Yes. Off duty law enforcement, active duty, and retired service members receive special pricing. Reach out with basic proof and we share a code.
Do you support instructors or dealers?
Yes. Instructors and shops who focus on concealed carry training or sales can apply for partner pricing. Email support to get started.
