The DeSantis Slim-Tuk (DeSantis part no. 137KJF9Z0) is a minimal inside-the-waistband Kydex holster molded specifically for the 1911 Government (4.25-inch barrel). It’s built for concealed carriers who want a slim, low-profile IWB shell rather than a bulkier leather or nylon holster. One of the Slim-Tuk’s standout features is DeSantis’ tuck-able 360-degree C-Clip, which affords unlimited mounting and cant positions instead of locking you into a single ride height. The hardware can easily be reversed to switch from right- to left-hand carry, and the shell itself is precision molded with adjustable tension so you can dial in your own balance of retention and draw speed. It rides on a rugged 1.75-inch nylon clip built for daily carry.
