Product Description
Over the last 10 years, the Don Hume JIT slide has been their top selling holster model. The JIT (which stands for Just In Time) Slide is designed to carry medium sized to small revolvers and autos in a highly concealed manner. This holster has an open bottom so it can fit handguns from the same family regardless of the barrel length. For example, the model for the Glock 19 also fits the Glock 26.
One of the reasons for its popularity is the belt slot design. Instead of having belt slots in the front and rear of the holster, the JIT Slide has a belt slot directly behind the holster and then a second trailing belt slot on the back of the holster. The combination of the center belt loop and trailing belt slot pulls the weapon close to the body, while still allowing for a full firing grip. The design makes for a stable carrying platform that takes up much less space on the belt as compared to similar pancake style designs.
The JIT is available in Black or Saddle Brown.
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 the JIT slide holster:
#1 - As this holster has an open bottom, how far will the gun stick out the bottom of the holster?
The answer to that question depends on the specific handgun that is being carried. Obviously, the longer the pistol dimensions, the more will stick out the bottom of the holster. As a basic reference, a Glock 26 will stick out the bottom of the holster about half an inch, while a larger Glock 19 model sticks out the bottom about an inch and a half. A Colt Government 1911 5" will stick out the bottom about 3 inches.
#2 - Does this model ride at any type of forward cant?
No, the JIT Slide rides at a 0 cant (straight up and down) on the waist.
#3 - Since the holster is small and doesn't have a thumb break, I'm worried that it won't retain the pistol well?
Even though the JIT doesn't have any external retention devices (thumb break, retention screw, etc.), the design does an excellent job of retaining the holster. The retention is centered on the friction created when the handgun is fully seated in the holster. To be honest, this model is one of Don Hume's top sellers in terms of popularity due to the design and price point.
#4 - Will this holster work with pistols that feature a Crimson Trace laser grip?
To be honest, it really depends on the handgun model. Most of the pistols with CT laser grips will fit in this holster, but occasionally there are a few models that won't. We'd really have to get more info on the handgun model and then we might be able to tell from experience.

Best fit ever
I got my holster a couple of weeks ago for my Kahr cm40 the fit is amazing very comfortable kidney or back side fits the weapon perfectly in the draw retention is excellent

Fit the weapon right out of the Package
This is the first leather holster that I have purchased that fit the weapon right out of the package without a bunch of wrapping the weapon in plastic and letting jamming it in to the holster to sit for a week. Great work Don Hume Holsters! The pistol will seem loose in the holster when you try it out before putting it on your belt. The tension of tightening your belt will provide plenty of tension to retain the weapon as you wear it. I am left handed and find that wearing the holster at a 10 o'clock position with an untucked shirt suits me well.

Rides perfectly
With the small Sig P238 the gun rides higher than any other holster I’ve tried. Gun sits straight up and into your waist curve . The barrel ends just slightly below the belt and does not stick out. I can wear it with short jackets or sweaters without anyone seeing it, and if they do they only see a little leather which could be anything. Extremely discreet

good product
The JIT holster holds the gun secure and close. It is not big and bulky. Good concealment holster. My one negative is I wish it was a little longer to cover the gun right to the muzzle, to protect the gun 100%!! My JIT holster for my G-43 does just that. It is a bit short for the compact Glocks.

Great holster
I've carried an H&K USP in one of these for years; this one was for my new S&W Shield. Like my old one, the design and workmanship are great and the weapon fits snugly and securely, nestled tightly to the body.

Best hi-ride on the market.
Excellent hi-ride concealed carry belt holster on the market; have one each for a Kimber 1911, Glock, and S&W 2". Great tight fit and quality.
