Carry modern, carry classic. The 1791 Gunleather BH2.4S Optic Ready OWB Open Top Paddle (Size 2.4S) blends time-honored leather craftsmanship with today’s pistol features—like slide-mounted red dots and tall sights. Trimmed in Signature Brown and built on a secure paddle platform, this open-top OWB holster is tuned for compact striker-fired handguns including the FN 509 and Heckler & Koch VP9SK. The result is a fast, comfortable, and durable daily-carry rig that conceals cleanly and draws like a dream.
Why carriers choose the BH2.4S Optic Ready Paddle
Truly optic-ready: A thoughtfully relieved sight channel and optic cut accommodate common red dots and slightly taller sights without snagging.
Open-top speed: No thumb-break or strap—just a clean, direct draw with strong passive retention molded into the leather.
Stable paddle platform: Slip-on paddle design anchors the holster to your waistband while letting you put it on or take it off—no belt removal required.
Premium full-grain leather: Thick, hand-finished Signature Brown hides deliver comfort against the body, protect your slide’s finish, and age into a handsome patina.
Close-to-body ride: Contoured molding and paddle geometry keep your grip tucked in for better concealment under shirts, hoodies, or light jackets.
Made to work every day: Edges are burnished and stitched for long service life with a smooth draw stroke.
Optimized fit (Size 2.4S)
Note: Large compensators, weapon lights, and extreme-height co-witness sights may affect fit. Most micro/standard red dots fit if they don’t extend beyond the slide footprint.
How it carries
OWB strong side: Natural 3–4 o’clock position for quick access and balanced concealment.
Adjustable wardrobe: The low-profile footprint disappears under casual layers; the paddle’s inside hook helps resist upward draw forces for consistent, repeatable reps.

Everyday advantages
Comfort that lasts: Leather flexes with your movement and spreads pressure more naturally than rigid synthetics.
Fast presentation: Open-top access and a supportive sight channel mean fewer obstructions from cover garment to first shot.
Durable by design: Dense leather and reinforced mouth help the holster keep its shape after break-in, aiding safe reholstering.
Setup tips
Seat the paddle inside the waistband so the hook grabs your belt/waistband from below.
Position at 3–4 o’clock (RH) for a neutral, fast draw; fine-tune cant by micro-adjusting the paddle angle on your waistband.
With your unloaded pistol, run several draw-and-reholster reps to confirm grip clearance and retention feel.
Break-in & care
Initial fit: Expect a snug hold—quality leather molds quickly to your pistol after a few sessions.
Cleaning: Wipe with a soft, slightly damp cloth; avoid soaking or harsh chemicals.
Conditioning: Use leather conditioner sparingly to keep fibers supple. Over-conditioning can reduce retention.
Storage: Cool, dry environment away from direct heat or prolonged sunlight preserves color and structure.
Frequently asked questions
Q: Will my red dot fit?
A: The BH2.4S is optic ready for most slide-mounted dots within the slide’s footprint. Extremely tall back-up sights or specialty optics may require a different cut.
Q: Is there adjustable retention?
A: Retention is provided by the holster’s molded leather. It starts snug and forms to your handgun for a secure, custom-like hold.
Q: Do I need a belt for the paddle?
A: A belt is highly recommended. The paddle will clip inside the waistband, and a sturdy 1.5"–1.75" belt maximizes stability and keeps your draw angle consistent.
Q: Printing concerns with compact pistols?
A: The close-to-body ride and leather contouring help minimize printing. Pair with the right cover garment for best concealment.
