Product Description
The Don Hume H721 (or "Double Nine") is made with a metal reinforced thumb break with recessed snap and double stitched sew lines at stress areas. This pancake style holster features two belt slots for easy positioning on the belt line, as well as a fully covered trigger. The H721 has a slight forward cant, rides very close to the body without riding too high. It offers a very good balance of concealment, security, and comfort. It is available in Black or Saddle Brown and fits belts up to 1 3/4".
For all single action weapons, this holster is designed so the thumb break works with cocked & locked carry (hammer back). This holster model is NOT available in a version for hammer down carry for a single action weapon.
How to tell if they holster model you are interested in is in stock: On the dropdown menu out beside each holster, there will be a notification if the holster is in stock or out of stock. In stock holsters will be marked as "In Stock" and out of stock holsters will be marked as "Preorder: 30 to 90 day ETA".
Some commonly asked questions about this model:
#1 - I like the style, but is this model available without a thumb break?
Yes, Don Hume offers this same model without a thumb break, and it's called the H721-OT (Open Top). You can read more about the OT model by following this link.
#2 - Does this holster ride at a 15 degree forward cant?
Not exactly. Don Hume doesn't provide an actual degree measurement of the cant, but it's slightly less than 15 degrees. We'd estimate it's closer to a 10 degree cant. Rumor has it that Don Hume himself wasn't a huge fan of holsters with an "aggressive" forward cant.
#3 - I was looking at the Open Top Model (H721-OT) and saw my weapon listed, but I don't see it available in this Thumb Break model?
Don Hume does offer the open top model to fit more handgun models than the thumb break model. With the TB model, they basically focus on the more popular handgun models.
#4 - I have a 1911 handgun. Does the thumb break work for Cocked & Locked (Hammer back) carry?
Yes. At this time, Don Hume makes all their thumb break models for 1911 handguns in a cocked & locked carry position only. They no longer make any of the thumb break models holsters for 1911 pistols in a hammer down carry position.
#5 - I really like this holster but don't see a model available for my handgun. Can Don Hume make one for my handgun?
Sorry, but Don Hume doesn't do any custom work. If the weapon you are trying to fit for isn't listed, then Don Hume isn't making for it.
#6 - Is this model made to fit any handguns fitted with after market lasers or tactical lights?
Sorry, but this model isn't produced to fit any handguns fitted with either of those accessories. We suggest that you try MTR Holsters for that option as they do offer a number of holsters that are made to be carried with certain laser or tactical lights attached to the handgun. Check out their holsters here.

Perfect fit holster.
I very happy with this very high quality holster for my J-frame S&W revolver. The gun fits perfect and there is full barrel coverage to protect the front sight that is hard to find with a 3" barrel. Thanks for the great holster! -Mike

GREAT HOLSTER AT A SUPER PRICE1
The Don Hume H721 OWB thumb-snap holster is a top quality item in both materials and workmanship. The H721 is a robust design that will give the owner many years of excellent service! Given its fine attributes, normally I would have given this holster a FIVE STAR rating, but I rated it a bit lower because this particular holster is not available with optional suede lining. I ordered this holster to carry a 3-inch S&W Model 13 revolver, and I must applaud Don Hume and Gunner's Alley for being one of the very few to offer a top quality holster for a 3-inch barreled S&W K-frame revolver! Gunner's Alley customer service associated with my order was---as always---cordial and personal in ever way possible. Gunner's Alley is my "go to" source for all gunleather!

Perfect fit
Don Hume custom made my holster for S&W model 29 with 4 inch barrel. H721 fit my gun perfectly, and I received holster sooner than the original projected time to finish it!

Ruger SP 101 3 INCH
SHOPPED AROUND FOR A HOLSTER TO FIT THE 3 INCH BARREL AND NO ONE CARRIED. DON HUME CARRIED IT AND HAD IT SHIPPED SOONEST TO ME. FIT IS PERFECT AND IS CANTED JUST RIGHT FOR COMFORT AND DRAW. GOOD QUALITY AND A GOOD PRICE.

Perfect
An excellent, well-made product. It is just what I was looking for.

Consistently Good Quality and Fit
I've purchased several Don Hume H721 holsters in the past and have been pleased with the fit, finish and durability. There's no "break-in" period with this particular model...the guns fit just right from the first time they entered the holster. Definitely will continue to purchase them in the future as the need arises. Great value for the money.
