Discover Unparalleled Concealment: The DeSantis Gunhide Insider IWB Holster for S&W Bodyguard 380/M&P Bodyguard with CT Laser

For those committed to responsible everyday carry, selecting the right holster is not merely an accessory choice—it's a critical decision impacting safety, comfort, and the ability to discreetly protect oneself. The DeSantis Gunhide 031BAU7Z0 Insider IWB Holster, specifically designed for the S&W Bodyguard 380 and M&P Bodyguard models equipped with a Crimson Trace laser, offers a compelling solution for deep concealment without compromising on accessibility or comfort. This isn't just a piece of gear; it's an integral component of a well-prepared personal defense strategy.

Are you an S&W Bodyguard owner seeking a highly concealable and comfortable carry option? Do you prioritize discretion and ease of wear for your everyday carry (EDC) firearm, especially one fitted with a laser sight? If these questions resonate with your needs, the DeSantis Insider IWB is meticulously engineered to address these very challenges, providing a seamless and secure method for carrying your compact pistol.

Why Choose Inside-the-Waistband (IWB) Carry?

Inside-the-waistband (IWB) holsters are renowned as the go-to choice for maximum concealment. Unlike outside-the-waistband (OWB) options, IWB holsters position the firearm inside your waistband, typically between your pants and your body, effectively eliminating "printing"—the visible outline of a firearm through clothing. This method allows individuals to wear more standard clothing while maintaining complete discretion. The DeSantis Insider takes this concept further, minimizing bulk and maximizing deep cover, making it an excellent choice for those who demand the utmost in stealth.

Common questions about IWB holsters often revolve around comfort and accessibility. While some IWB designs can feel cumbersome, especially with larger firearms, the DeSantis Insider's thoughtful design, particularly for compact pistols like the S&W Bodyguard, ensures it's an exception. Its soft, un-molded leather construction conforms to your body over time, providing a custom-like fit that enhances comfort for all-day wear.

Key Features and Design Philosophy of the DeSantis Insider

The DeSantis Gunhide Insider IWB Holster stands out due to its specific design elements aimed at achieving superior concealment and comfort.

Designed for Deep Concealment

One of the primary objectives of the Insider holster is to minimize its footprint. The heavy-duty spring steel clip is strategically positioned high on the holster, allowing the majority of the firearm to sit deep within the waistband. This "deep cover" design is crucial for preventing printing, even under lighter garments. Whether you're wearing a t-shirt or a light jacket, the Insider helps ensure your firearm remains virtually undetectable.

Premium Black Leather Construction

Crafted from high-quality leather, this holster offers a balance of durability and comfort. Unlike many rigid Kydex or molded leather holsters, the DeSantis Insider features a soft, un-molded leather body. This intentional design choice allows the holster to naturally break in and adapt to the contours of your body and firearm, resulting in a more comfortable and personalized fit over time. The inherent flexibility of the leather also contributes to a smoother draw and reholster experience.

Precision Fit for S&W Bodyguard with Crimson Trace Laser

A significant challenge for firearm owners is finding a holster that perfectly accommodates accessories like laser sights. The DeSantis Gunhide 031BAU7Z0 is specifically engineered for the S&W Bodyguard 380 and S&W M&P Bodyguard when equipped with a Crimson Trace (CT) laser. This precision fit ensures that the laser module does not interfere with the holster's retention or the firearm's presentation, a common issue with generic holsters. Owners can trust that their laser-equipped Bodyguard will seat securely and be readily accessible.

Right-Handed Configuration

This particular model is designed for right-handed shooters, ensuring a natural and efficient draw stroke from the dominant side. The orientation of the belt clip and the holster's body are optimized for a smooth, consistent draw for right-hand users.

Reliable Belt Clip Attachment

The sturdy belt clip provides a secure attachment to your belt, preventing the holster from shifting or pulling out with the firearm during a draw. Its robust construction ensures longevity and reliable performance, giving you peace of mind that your firearm remains safely in place until needed.

Who is the DeSantis Insider Holster For?

This holster is an ideal choice for a specific demographic of firearm owners:

• S&W Bodyguard Owners: Specifically those with the .380 ACP Bodyguard or the M&P Bodyguard variant.
• Laser Sight Users: Individuals who have equipped their Bodyguard with a Crimson Trace laser and require a holster designed to accommodate it without compromise.
• Concealed Carry Permit Holders: Anyone seeking a highly discreet and comfortable method for everyday concealed carry.
• Those Prioritizing Comfort: The soft leather and minimal bulk make it suitable for extended wear throughout the day.
• Individuals Seeking Deep Concealment: If preventing printing is your top priority, the Insider's design excels in this area.

Optimizing Your Concealed Carry Experience

Choosing the DeSantis Insider is a step towards optimizing your concealed carry. Here are additional considerations for maximizing its benefits:

Clothing and Belt Selection

While the Insider is designed for deep concealment, pairing it with appropriate clothing can further enhance discretion. Slightly looser-fitting shirts or cover garments that drape well can help eliminate any subtle printing. A quality gun belt is also paramount. A sturdy belt designed for carrying a firearm will support the weight of the pistol and holster, preventing sagging and ensuring the holster remains securely positioned. The DeSantis Insider's belt clip performs best when coupled with a rigid, dedicated gun belt.

Training and Practice

Even the best holster requires practice. Regularly drawing and reholstering your S&W Bodyguard from the DeSantis Insider will build muscle memory, ensuring that you can confidently and quickly access your firearm if ever necessary. Practice in various positions – standing, sitting, walking – to understand how the holster performs under different conditions.

Maintenance of Your Leather Holster

Leather holsters, like any quality leather product, benefit from proper care. Keeping the leather clean and occasionally treating it with a leather conditioner can extend its lifespan and maintain its suppleness. Avoid exposing the holster to extreme moisture or direct heat, which can cause the leather to dry out or warp.
