Meet the minimalist hybrid made to disappear under everyday clothing: the DeSantis Gunhide Transit IWB for Ruger LCP II.

Why Ruger LCP II Owners Choose the Transit IWB
Hybrid Comfort + Control: Kydex shell locks onto the slide and protects the trigger; natural leather backing flexes to your body to reduce hot spots during long wear.
True Ambidextrous Setup: Configure for right- or left-hand carry and place at appendix (AIWB) or strong-side—no separate model required.
Ultra-Slim for Concealment: Purpose-built for micro pistols like the LCP II, the Transit’s thin profile and rounded edges help minimize printing in fitted clothing.
Secure, No-Nonsense Clip: A robust belt clip grabs onto your EDC belt for consistent draw angle and dependable reholstering.
Defined Sight Channel & Trigger Coverage: Molded shell protects the trigger guard completely and guides the front sight for snag-free presentations.

Real-World Benefits
Carry All Day, Forget It’s There: Leather backing spreads pressure and conforms slightly over time, making the Transit comfortable at a desk, in a vehicle, or on the go.

Everyday Concealed Carry: Minimal bulk for true EDC with micro-pistol convenience.
Travel & Commuting: Leather comfort helps during seated hours while maintaining quick access.
Training & Dry Fire: Consistent retention and ride height support high-rep practice with identical gear to daily carry.
Fit & Compatibility Notes
Platform: Designed around Ruger LCP II dimensions. (Not for original LCP or LCP MAX; confirm your model.)
Sights/Lasers: Standard-height sights typically fit; add-on lasers/lights may change compatibility.
Belts: Use a rigid 1.5" gun belt to stabilize the holster and control cant/ride.
Setup & Carry Tips
Unload & Verify Safe before any fitting or practice.
Pick Your Position: Start at AIWB (1–2 o’clock) or strong-side (3–4 o’clock) depending on comfort and draw speed.
Clip & Check: Attach to a sturdy belt; confirm the holster does not shift during movement or seated positions.
Dry Practice First: Perform slow draws and careful reholstering to confirm retention and clear clothing paths.
Confirm Live: Validate on the range with your carry ammo; make small position tweaks for best concealment and access.
Care & Maintenance
Leather: Wipe with a soft cloth; avoid oversaturation with oils/solvents to preserve structure.
Kydex: Clean with mild soap/water; remove grit that could abrade the slide.
Hardware: Periodically check the belt-clip screws; a small dab of medium thread locker can help retain tension.
