1791 Multi Fit Smooth Concealment Holster IWB Size 3 Left Hand Black – SCH-3-NSB-L

The 1791 Multi Fit Smooth Concealment Holster in size 3 is an inside the waistband rig built for a left hand draw and finished in black, model SCH-3-NSB-L. Size 3 sits a step down from the larger numbers in the line, which generally makes it the choice for slimmer and more compact carry pistols rather than full frame service guns. As with the rest of the family, it is shaped to serve a group of similar pistols rather than one mold.

The 1791 multi fit smooth approach to holster sizing

Most holsters are cut for exactly one gun. That is fine until you sell that gun, buy another one, or simply want to carry something smaller on a hot afternoon.

Multi fit sizing works differently. Each size covers a defined band of frame dimensions, so a size 3 holster will accept several pistols with similar length and thickness. One well made holster ends up covering a meaningful slice of a normal collection.

The practical result is less money spent on gear and fewer half used holsters in a box under the bench. It also means you can try a new carry gun without immediately buying new leather to go with it.

Built for southpaws, not adapted for them

Left handed shooters know how thin the pickings can be. Half the good holsters on any wall are right hand only, and the left hand version is either backordered or was never made at all.

• True left hand build, not a mirrored afterthought, with the draw geometry set correctly from the start
• Multi fit size 3 pocket that serves a family of similarly dimensioned compact and slim pistols
• Smooth outer surface that slides under a shirt without catching and keeps printing to a minimum
• Inside the waistband design that puts the pistol between belt and body for genuine concealment
• Black finish that stays invisible against dark clothing and matches almost any belt
• Straightforward, affordable construction that leaves budget for ammunition and range time

Specifications and fitment notes

Carry style is IWB, inside the waistband. The size is multi fit size 3, the draw hand is left, the color is black, and the manufacturer model number is SCH-3-NSB-L.

Before ordering, check that your carry pistol falls inside the size 3 range. 1791 publishes clear fit guidance, and two minutes with that chart is the difference between a holster that grips correctly and one that feels loose or overly tight.

Because there is no rigid shell molded to one slide profile, retention comes from the fit of the pocket against the pistol and the pressure of the belt holding it closed. That is a proven, time tested arrangement, and it is why simple holsters like this one have stayed popular for decades.

Carrying and caring for a smooth concealment holster

The eight o’clock position is home base for most left handed carriers, just behind the hip where the grip tucks into the natural hollow of the back. Cant it slightly forward and a loose shirt will hide the whole rig.

Use a proper gun belt. A soft dress belt lets an inside the waistband holster shift and sag, while a stiff belt holds it flat and keeps the draw in the same place every single time.

Break it in gradually. Wear it unloaded at home, run slow repetitions, and let the pocket relax around your specific pistol before you carry all day. Wipe the outside down when it collects sweat, air dry it away from heat, and keep the interior clean so grit never rides against your slide.

Everything else you need for a complete carry setup, from gun belts to magazine carriers to cleaning kits, lives in our Apparel and Gear collection.

Shooters who have run the 1791 multi fit smooth line before know the drill: confirm the size, mount it on a stiff belt, and then forget about it. There is very little to adjust and even less to break, which is exactly what you want from gear you put on every single morning.

If your carry pistol falls inside the size 3 range, the 1791 multi fit smooth concealment holster is a clean, comfortable, genuinely affordable way to keep it concealed and ready at the eight o’clock position all day long. Ships direct to your door, no FFL required.
