Perfect OWB holster for the PSA Dagger. Nerd staff reached out to see which belt attachment I planned on using and provided extra hardware for it. I’d definitely recommend this holster for anyone looking for an OWB option. This is my 3rd Nerd holster and they have all exceeded my expectations.

Emailed with a question, the owner of the company called me and went over every detail of my holster with me to ensure it was exactly what I wanted. Super fast turn around time and shipping, had the holster in my hands in three days. It’s super high quality, fits great with my pistol, works well, great adjustments. 10/10 reccomend the company and the products.
Dennis B –
Absolutely the perfect holster for the PSA Micro Dagger! My weapon fits perfect, and snug! Easy to draw! I am thinking of getting the IWB now!

If I can give you 5 more stars, I would. The quality. The fit. Just so perfect for the price. Won’t be the last time I shop with NERD.
Aidan R –
Best holster I’ve ever purchased. 10/10, you guys knocked it out of the park. Price was on point, quality is phenomenal, looks great and feels great. Good retention, no looseness when holstered. Fast shipping. I will be buying more holsters from you. Also, massive assortment of pistols and attachment options, which is great.
Drew H –
Would help to have a little instruction on using it as a paddle. I had to take off a piece to be able to use it as a paddle. That said the quality is excellent.
Chad S –
The SLY holster fit my PSA Rock with a TLR-7 perfectly. The Kryptek Raid camo looks great and the holster has holes to mount a G-Code RTI hanger. Very happy with my purchase!

Solid holster for PSA Rock 5.7. Very few options out there currently , and this one fits Rock with red dot and surefire light. Exactly what I was looking for.
Blake B –
Excellent holster! Fit and finish is on point. Will highly recommend
Tyler R –
By far the best holster I own. I can’t even explain how awesome this company is! I was searching for something for a PSA dagger with a TLR7 and compensator and I emailed these guys with a few questions, and they replied within literal minutes. After a few exchanged emails i ordered one a week or two later. Turnaround time was impeccable. One day after I ordered received an email it was already shipped and got to me in just a few days! I’ve waited months before to get orders from other top name holster brands and they weren’t anything to be excited about honestly. This holster fits absolutely perfect, with great retention and nice material to boot. Don’t hesitate to order one. I’ll be getting a few more once I get my other guns finished without a doubt these guys are my number one go to for holsters now.
Jeffrey J –
Amazing customer service here, no question. They will go above and beyond to ensure you are happy and to help you purchase the correct product. The sly is a wonderful owb gun belt style holster, and it pairs up really well with the Dagger. If that’s what you’re looking for, this is it. Solid build & a great fit! USA made, what’s not to love…
Derek O –
I’m extremely happy with my holster and the customer service I received from the Nerd team.

Brian B –
Great fit and finish. Fast shipping. Very Happy
Alexander R –
Great holster. Wish it came out of the box QLS compatible or that NERD would make a QLS adapter, but for the price the holster is more than acceptable.
Nicholas C –
Put about 100rds through the pistol using the holster. First of all it looks great. Came a little loose outta the box but the retention adjustments are easy to use and work appropriately. Planning to use the QLS and change it up from the through belt mount into a safariland. Thanks to the guys at Nerd to getting this out quick also! I will be purchasing from you all again in the future.
Wyatt R –
Absolutely love this holster, retention is great and shipping was fast, can’t wait to get my iwb one !!

Exactly what I was looking for. And reasonable time for delivery.

The Sly OWB holster for my PSA 5.7 Rock is excellent quality! It retains the pistol well but is smooth on the draw. It easily adapted to a QLS mount and is cut low to fit an optic. I wouldn’t hesitate to buy it again.
William M –
Love it . Great product.
Ronald T –
High quality holster. Tension set perfectly for holding my pistol right out of the box. Now that guns come in colors, it was nice to get a holster that matched the color of my gun. It really helps sort out which firearm goes in what holster.

Great holster quality fast shipping
John H –
Excellent product and super fast delivery. More room at the rear of holster but accommodates weapon variants well. Would buy again!!!
Gabriel R –
The order was delivered fast and the holster is nice. However, the piece that extends up and goes between the gun and your body can create some discomfort in some positions but overall its a great holster.
Paul H –
Fits great, well made, fast shipping. What else could you ask for?
Richard H –
Awesome fit, fast delivery and the color match to my FDE PSA Rock is Perfect! I’ll be back when I want a different carry pattern! (Looking at you, Rook!)

John D –
The fitment was excellent, arrived ahead of schedule, and all components worked as advertised. It looks great as well! Will definitely be using this company again in the future; well done.
Jeremy O –
With the full kit, it’s exactly what you need. Good passive retention and intuitive, secure active retention. Good quality and comfortable. I much appreciate [NERD] for making professional quality holsters for the relatively new and inexpensive PSA handguns. I hope to see one like this for the PSA Rock. OWB double mag holders for the Rock and Dagger would be great too.
Joseph H –
My PSA dagger, with suppressor height iton sights, fits perfectly and quite snugly. It also works really well with my Holosun red dot. Thanks NERD!
Robert R –
Timothy B –
I love the Holster. But I kinda regret getting it with the paddle. The paddle just isn’t that nice. Wish I woulda went with the other option. But that’s fine I’ll probably just replace it with a tek lock. It just has a little ramp that makes it hard to put on your belt quick and easy without undoing and threading the belt on.
Dillon G –
Very fast shipping, great holster
Adam R –
Very good customer service will definitely be buying from you in the future
Stuart T –
Seems to be ok. It’s real hard to slip over your belt and get into place, but stays secure when in place.
Kevin K –
Excellent holster, great service!
Richard W –
I love it
William L –
Awesome quality and retention
James G –
Great Holster, it fits my Rock perfectly.
John H –
Customer service by Clint was excellent!!! Holster was beautifully made and fit was perfect. Recommending to all my friends.
David P –
Good website, easy ordering process and quick shipping. Holster arrived and I love it, fits my firearm perfect and looks great. I later ordered a mag holder, but later found out the color I picked was out of stock, Clint at Nerd was awesome in getting me a mag holster that I liked instead of the color that was out of stock. Great customer service, quick responses and extremely helpful. Highly recommend Nerd products, will purchase again. Thanks for a great product and excellent customer service.
Chris R –
Fit is spot on, locks in place well. Will definitely shop with Nerd again.
Randolph A –
Excellent quality, great fit.
Patrick W –
I purchased this holster as a gift for my wife. I spoke to Clint over the phone about color and type’s of holsters for the PSA Dagger. Clint sent me real time photos and discussed with me the pros and cons on what and how my wife wanted to carry. Clint is very helpful and knows his way around firearms and holster. I would highly recommend Clint [ Nerd ] because of his outmost professionalism I’m and courtesy that he has for his customer in the way he carried himself as a down to earth business man.
Marshall T –
I have purchased 4 holsters from them and like all of them so far the PSA rock Is comfortable as heck with these

Troy C –
Great customer service and the holster is perfect!
Brian G –
The 5.7 Rock paddle holster fits like a glove. It’s very high quality and drawing and reholstering is smooth. I love the audible click. Even though it’s easy to draw, it still feels locked in and secure when holstered! I loce that its a paddle holster that still allows you to put a belt through it. Couldn’t ask for a better Holster.
Matthew R –
Very well built and would be great as a duty holster. Highly recommended.
Gerald M –
Amazing shipping , product and value, fits my 5.7 rock with a optic perfect out of the box . will be buying from here again and will recommend to others highly!
Michael S –
Great fit for the PSA Rock 5.7 with Red Dot, suppressor height sights and threaded barrel. Positive, adjustable firearm retention. Paddle attachment works well, rides nice on belt.

Nice solid holster! Great workmanship, I like that it’s compatible with safari land hardware.
David G –
Excellent product and super fast shipping. Highly recommend!!
Anthony E –
I am very happy with my purchase. I was in need of a paddle holster for my PSA 5.7 Rock. The website showed out of stock but a simple email request and Clint responded quickly that he had extra paddle holster and set me up. Super fast shipping.
Chase F –
Great product at a reasonable price this paddle holds tight!!! No concerns over that at all. Fits well with any RMR cut optics as well. Now I just need NERD to come out with some magazine carrying kydex and we will be wining!
Hans A –
Super fast delivery!!! After purchasing the gun with the red dot and the reddot comparable sights I thought for sure the Holter was not fling to work with the taller sights. It works perfectly!!!! Nice tactile click and the black kydex is excellent. Product is awesome and the personal thank you note a class act!!!! Top quality and service folks!!!!!!!
John S –
fast shipping and holster is just what I expected.
Robert K –
Fits perfect and feels solid. also great service when I had a question.

Vinson H –
Good holster for the PSA Dagger. I would definitely order again!
William K –
For being the 1st paddle holster I’ve ever owned, I don’t know why I haven’t had one before. This fits my Dagger like a 2nd skin and is one of the most comfortable holsters I’ve ever had from day one.
David H –
Perfect fit for my Dagger. Shipping was quick and easy.
Ken K –
Great product and functions as expected, definitely zero issues to draw and re-holster.
Brian W –
Jonathan W –
Great fit on the PSA Dagger, and high quality materials all around. Customer service was 10/10 and I’ll be getting more NERD holsters in the future.
Rojelio R –
This paired with the safari land equipment and thigh strap work phenomenal and you get a consistent draw each time!
Josh O –
Awesome holsters and a great company! I also have a SLICC and a SLY for my PSA Dagger and love them. They were quick on delivery as well. I just wished they made a holster for my Sig 229
Larry S –
Stephen C –
Quality product ??
Kenneth N –
As someone who was compelled to buy a PSA dagger, simply because the quality/value proposition was too great to resist…imagine my surprise to find so few holster makers were committing to a dagger-specific holster. NERD showed up in my search, and I’m glad they did. I’m a leather holster person, and this was my first Kydex, but I still know fine craftsmanship when I see it. The holster is PERFECTLY molded to the dagger, and retains it beautifully. I also noticed that they feathered the Kydex around the grip area where your index finger will land, and against which you would draw/drag across the holster. Very smooth, and snag/scratch free. It seems very tough, but I have no preconceived notions of what Kydex longevity is supposed to look like. It feels durable…you’d almost swear it was injection molded, considering how well it forms to the pistol. I ordered the Paddle option. I find it to be comfortable against my body everywhere from 3 to 5 o’clock. Be advised: it is a bear to get on and off your belt. It will NEVER fall off, and no one will ever pull it from your body. But if you thought it would be the option for an easy on/off, I would disagree. Not knowing how I’d like it, I also ordered their belt loop attachment separately, in case I preferred one over the other. It was very affordable, and the holster lets me have either option. Delivery was fast. I’m very pleased.
Roger M –
allows the firearm to be held up high enough to aid concealment with a Tek Lok mount and the belt loop system as well. The holster fits the PSA Dagger like a glove and is easily adjustable for weapon retention. Great OWB holster that’s comfortable to wear, instills confidence when carrying with it. Highly recommend.
Cody A –
I’m very happy with my holster. It fits the PSA Dagger, with a Holsun 507c, absolutely perfectly. The fit of the paddle is very “aggressive” and will not come off easily. Great job, guys!
Michael V –
This is truly a great well made holster!! Thank you.
Douglas W –
Shipped fast and fits the form of the gun well. No complaints. I’d recommend it to anyone needing an OWB holster for a PSA Rock.
Jeffrey S –
Great retention and fitment. Has room for tall sights and an optic.
Ryan C –
Received my order quickly. Holster is sturdy and fits perfect! Great American made product. Would refer to a friend.
Gary T –
Perfect fit for my optics equipped PSA Dagger.

Great product! Fits perfect! Just what I was looking for, quality and versatile with the other systems NERD offers.
4561 85th –
Great fit, fast shipping. Top notch. Will buy from again!
Arron G –
Holster functioned without issue, it does use the safariland type mount system which was a pleasent surprise. I can confirm it works with a duty drop safariland mount.
Marcus D –
Quality construction. Fantastic fit. Comfortable. Functions well. 10 out of 10. Would definitely do again if needed.
Adam H –
Well made holster, only holster i have found for the PSA 5.7 Rock. Works well and fast shipping! Ordered on the weekend and received order that Wednesday.

Rick G –
Excellent service and superb product.!
Eric M –
NERD was fantastic to work with. Post office lost my first holster but NERD worked to get it resolved. The holster itself is exactly what I was looking for and look forward to purchasing more in the future. The fit was perfect and after a couple of small easy adjustments, I had it set perfect for my carry style.
Huxley G –
Holster works perfect and shipped right away. Thanks for everything
James C –
Great OWB holster for the PSA Dagger. There are not a lot of options for the Dagger so I had some questions, I reached out and got immediate responses. I ended up ordering the holster and couldn’t be more impressed.
Toby S –
You cannot go wrong with any of these holsters. I now own three from Nerd and absolutely love each one of them. Customer service is awesome and shipping is lightning fast!!
James C –
Contacted NERD to see if the would make me a couple SLY OWB holsters for the PSA Dagger, and much to my surprise they responded within minutes and let me know they just finished making a batch and they would be added for online ordering in a few days. They sent me a picture of their finished product and true to their word, they were available to order within a few days. I received the holsters about three days after the order was placed, and the fit and finish was great. I would highly recommend them to anyone!!
Aaron W –
Only holster i could find to fit a psa dagger, the dagger’s accessory rail is just a bit lower than a G19 and thos accomodates it perfectly.
