Product Review: The Regulator – Made by UBG Holsters at www.ubgholsters.com

As I have said many times, to many customers, as holster manufacturers we understand that our holster products like so many others are not the ‘greatest’ holsters ever made. What my line of holsters do is serve a very specific purpose. That’s what gun holsters do, they serve a purpose. Sometimes I carry a MIC if I the carry situation is correct, but the MIC is not always the holster I need. This is where the Regulator from UBG Holsters comes in.

Nate at UBG sent me a Black right handed outside the pants holster for my Glock 27 called the “Regulator”. I have, when the situation was correct, carried this holster now for close to a year. I have found it to be of very good construction and made out of quality leather. The Regulator is very comfortable and does a good job of concealment when wearing a cover garment. Frankly, I have beat the crap out of this holster. The straps have held up well, showing very minimal wear. The snaps are still crisp and directional and the leather still looks great.

I took the liberty of stealing a couple of Nate’s images from his website, the 2nd top image is a Regulator with shark skin trim. The bottom right is a Brown right hand for a 1911. The other images are of my black regulator holding one of my Glock 27s.

UBG makes this holster for Right or Left handed use, and in several colors. This model as well as others are available also in some exotic skins. The price for the Regulator starts at a modest $70.00 for standard leather, and gets more expensive for exotic skins. The review rankings are below. There is a bit of a wait because these are custom made to order. The wait is very reasonable, and I of all people do understand that sometimes you have to wait a bit for handmade quality!

Quality of materials – 8
Ease of putting the holster on – 9
Fit to firearm -8
Angle of carry – 8
Price (Value) – 10

Overall the Regulator from www.ubgholsters is rated a 9 out of 10. If you need a good hand made belt holster at a good price, you can’t go wrong with UBG Holsters. Nate makes several other models of holsters to fit a lot of current modern firearms.
