The flexible Eco-Leather exterior, soft inner lining, and metal clip combine close-to-body carry with a design that protects the pistol's finish.

This left-handed variant is listed for Glock 17, 20, 21, 22, and 31 models. After installing aftermarket sights, higher sights, or other parts, actual fit should be checked again. Does the holster fit all SIG Sauer P320 versions? The manufacturer’s compatibility guide associates size 57B with the full-size P320. For Subcompact, Compact, and Carry versions, another size may fit, so not all P320 variants should be considered automatically compatible. Are SIG Sauer P228 and P229 definitely compatible? The product variant description lists P228 and P229 for the 57B model, but the manufacturer’s separate compatibility table associates these models with size 57B SUB. Due to this discrepancy, we recommend confirming compatibility with the seller before purchase or testing the holster with a completely unloaded pistol. What do “SIG 2020” and “Canik T9” mean in the list? These appear to be typographical errors in the product list. For SIG, it likely refers to the SP2022 model, and for Canik, the TP9 model family. The exact pistol model should be confirmed separately before purchase. Do Springfield XD and XD-M compact models fit? According to the manufacturer’s table, the CHPO 57B is intended for full-size XD and XD-M pistols in 9 mm, .40 S&W, and .45 ACP calibers. For compact and subcompact versions, the table lists size 57B SUB. Can the holster be used without a red dot sight? Yes. The optics cutout does not require the presence of a sight. However, the pistol must stay securely in the holster, the trigger guard must be fully covered, and the firearm’s controls must not move unintentionally against the holster. Is the holster compatible with a pistol-mounted light or laser? The standard CHPO 57B optics-ready variant is not confirmed to be compatible with weapon lights or frame-mounted lasers. For such accessories, a holster specifically shaped for the device should be selected. Can the retention force be adjusted with a screw? No. This is a soft, passive retention holster without the adjustment screw typical of rigid Kydex holsters. Pistol retention depends on the pistol’s dimensions, holster fit, and waistband pressure. When is the Houston CHPO 57B (LH) the right choice? This option is suitable for left-handed users who want to carry a compatible full-size pistol inside the waistband and prefer a softer, closer-to-body holster over a rigid plastic shell. The optics cutout also makes it practical for pistols with red dot sights. Choose the smaller CHPO 57B SUB if you use a compact or subcompact version of the same model family. A pistol with a weapon light or frame-mounted laser requires a holster made specifically for the accessory’s shape. Expert recommendation The compatibility of a soft holster designed for multiple pistol models should always be checked with the specific firearm. Completely unload the pistol, remove all ammunition from the work area, and ensure that the holster covers the trigger and trigger guard fully. The pistol must stay secure even during normal movement, and the holster must not press the safety, magazine release, or other controls. The soft holster mouth may collapse after drawing the pistol. If the pistol cannot be reholstered without pressing or adjusting the holster, first remove the holster from the waistband and insert the firearm in a controlled and safe manner. Carry firearms only in accordance with local laws and license conditions.
