Built from premium center cut steerhide and secured with a modern nylon J-clip, this Galco Waistband holster offers comfort, concealment, and secure retention for your Glock 48 MOS—whether you carry with or without a red dot optic.
If you’re looking for a straightforward leather IWB holster that just works, the WB834RB is a proven, low-profile option for Glock 48 owners.
Purpose-Built IWB Holster for Glock 48 & Glock 48 MOS
This specific Waistband model is precision-designed to fit:
Some retailers also list compatibility with the Smith & Wesson Equalizer, giving this holster even more versatility for slim, modern carry guns.
The molding and dimensions are tuned for these pistols, delivering a secure fit while still allowing a smooth, consistent draw.
Premium Center Cut Steerhide – Galco Quality You Can Feel
Like other Galco leather holsters, the Waistband WB834RB is made from premium center cut steerhide:
Durable, rugged leather designed for years of daily carry
Natural surface that breaks in over time for improved comfort and draw
Classic black finish that pairs with virtually any belt or wardrobe
Center cut steerhide gives you the benefits of real leather—strength, structure, and comfort—at an accessible price point.
Reinforced Thumb Break Retention Strap for Extra Security
Unlike minimalist open-top holsters, the Galco Waistband IWB uses a retention strap with a reinforced thumb break:
Keeps your Glock 48 locked in place during daily activity, bending, or running
Thumb break is reinforced for easy, consistent release during the draw stroke
Ideal for those who want an extra layer of retention beyond simple friction fit
This makes the WB834RB well-suited for active lifestyles or those who prioritize weapon security during concealed carry.
Modern Injection-Molded Nylon J-Clip – Secure, Low-Profile Attachment
The holster is attached to your belt via a modern injection-molded nylon J-clip:
Hooks over the waistband and under the belt for a secure, discreet mount
Keeps the holster anchored during the draw
Slim design that helps reduce printing and visual signature
The J-clip is a great option if you want reliable retention on the belt without bulky loops or hardware.
Neutral Cant & Vertical Carry – Multiple Carry Positions
The Galco Waistband IWB WB834RB carries your handgun in a vertical orientation with neutral cant:
No built-in forward or rearward angle
Can be comfortably used in strong-side, appendix (AIWB), or even crossdraw positions
Lets you experiment with different carry spots to find what conceals and draws best for you
This flexibility is especially useful if you’re still dialing in your ideal IWB position or want to switch between carry styles.
Slim, Concealable Profile for Everyday Carry
Designed specifically for inside-the-waistband concealment, the Waistband IWB offers:
A sleek, low-bulk profile that hugs the body
Soft leather that is more forgiving than rigid kydex against skin or clothing
Easy concealment under T-shirts, polos, light jackets, or untucked button-ups
For Glock 48 and 48 MOS carriers looking for an EDC holster that balances comfort, concealment, and retention, this is a strong choice.
Fits Belts Up to 1.75" Wide
The Waistband WB834RB is designed to work with common concealed carry belts:
Fits belts up to 1 3/4" (1.75") wide
Compatible with most gun belts and many sturdy EDC belts
Ensures a tight, stable platform, which is essential for a reliable draw and reholster
Using a quality belt with this holster maximizes comfort and performance.
