The Concealment Express Rounded Holster for the KelTec P17 is beautifully finished with clean, rounded edges. It provides excellent coverage of the trigger as well as protection for the paddle mag release levers.
The top portion is cut to accommodate KelTec’s Red Dot slide.
While the belt displacement is about 1/20” more than my DIY holster, it does feature a molded in ramp that helps press the heel of the grip into your body reducing the need for a wedge.
The AmbGun DIY holster is setup to keep a safety lever on safe, while the Rounded holster allows the safety to be either on or off when holstered. If you don’t carry a round in the chamber, you’ll want that flexibility.
The standard belt clip keeps the holster attached to your belt. I tend to prefer the tuckable belt hangers mounted to the two tension adjustment screws. I think that feels a bit slimmer. Rounded offers four tuckable options.
This is my favorite commercially available P17 IWB holster to date. It is far more handsome than my crudely made DIY holster.
My DIY holster wraps beneath the paddle mag releases a bit to help prevent accidental magazine disengagement…something I’ve never experienced with paddle mag releases, but having been traumatized by button mag releases, I’m a bit paranoid about accidental mag disengagements. Rounded features crisp and detailed molding around the trigger guard outshines my meager effort.
They are very much on top of new models offering IWB holsters for the P32, PMR30, P15, and even the, at this time yet to be released, PR57.
The Rounded P17 IWB holster…a well designed, handsome product, made in the USA, lifetime warranty, 30 day money back guarantee, and competitively priced. AmbGun recommended!

My favorite holster for the P365 and the Hellcat, especially when running a red dot. Nifty red dot garage.

Two things we really like about this Belly Band holster:
- an actual kydex holster to protect the trigger guard.
- the way that the band wraps over this kydex holster to pull your pistol into your body rather than leaving it to dangle outside the band. Deeper concealment and more secure for rough activities.

The Hellcat's engineering genius is slightly thwarted by a needlessly thick holster.
I removed the toothed mounting hardware (the top pieces in the photo) to reduce thickness of holster near muzzle.
C-clip mount point is 1/3" thinner. Positions the clip itself parallel with holster body for better presentation on belt, too.
I do have to run the retention a little tight to prevent the C-clip from swinging over to interfere with the mag release button. With the slight cant, the weight of the pistol should tend to help prevent this shift of the C-clip.

I had to ream out the C-Clip mounting holes a bit to add in a bit of can and to clear magazine release button (for left hand carry, right hand carry would not face this issue).
See my pistol reviews and my "Carrying for Self Defense" series to understand why I advocate primary left hand carry and presentation of handgun.
Magazine release button clearance is pretty close. May require grinding a bit off the C-Clip near the mag button.
Springfield Armory...paddle mag release, PLEASE.
I replaced stock screws with stainless screws I had on hand. I think they are #8-32. You could use the stock screws, the short one will just barely get an acceptable bite on the blind nut. The long screw will need about 1/4" cut off. Be sure to put a drop of Locktite on each screw.
