#Holster

CrossBreed Holsters is announcing its new Chest Rig Nomad, promising a perfect solution for hunters and outdoor adventurers traversing the backcountry. The holster is designed to comfortably and easily attach to the shoulder straps of a backpack, keeping your firearm high on the torso for quick access when needed.

The Galco Triton 3.0 IWB Holster is a slim and stealthy way to carry your concealed firearm, but until recently, its high level of compatibility with a healthy lineup of EDC guns on the market had one gaping… Well, it was missing a popular concealed carry option, the Sig P365. With the P365 being one of the most carried sub-compacts on the market, this was merely a matter of time. Let’s look at some features that make the Galco Triton 3.0 IWB a solid option to conceal your everyday carry.

For everybody who still loves to rock a 1911 as their daily carry piece, Galco is expanding your options yet again by offering their Halo Belt Holster which can accommodate your favorite weapon-mounted light (WML) as well.

Anyone who carries a handgun, be it for professional duty or for personal use, knows that the fit and comfort of the holster is just as important as the feel of the firearm. There are several different materials used for holsters, but many will say the same thing – nothing beats leather. Falco Holsters has been around since 1989, and produces some of the finest holsters available and in many different materials. Its latest Enhanced Timeless Leather line perfectly blends all the features you would want in a classic leather holster with modern nuances that meet the exacting demands of gun owners everywhere.

I recently had the opportunity to attend a special event put on by the Safariland Group down in Florida. Just about an hour or so north of Orlando in the middle of nowhere lies Deep Woods Ranch – the home of form Navy SEAL Rich Graham’s training facility Full Spectrum Warrior. Full Spectrum Warrior is a firearms training and consulting outfit that offers both public and private classes throughout the year with course topics ranging from leadership courses, to land navigation and even precision rifle and reconnaissance courses. Safariland’s main goal in bringing us out to the FSW facility was to provide a clear understanding of their retention levels, how they work, and what those extra levels of retention can provide the wearer in terms of both personal and firearm security. Today my aim is to pass along that understanding in the hopes that it’ll clear up some of the recent confusion surrounding the “retention leveling system” that many holster companies have started to adopt for their own active retention holsters. In the next article, we’ll talk about why these retention systems are important.

T.Rex Arms has reintroduced the Raptor holster, but now with some upgrades. The original model was discontinued in 2021. This new version is a simple, small-footprint holster that works for appendix or strong-side carry.

Safariland has added new holster fits to the IncogX line for a range of popular Smith & Wesson pistols. The new fitments are for the M&P 2.0, Equalizer, Shield, Shield EZ, and Shield Plus. Safariland offers a variety of accessory fitments for popular red dot sights and weapon lights, as well as an optional spare magazine caddy.

James Reeves visits Corvus Defensio to see this absolutely wild, ultra deep carry Kydex holster that Corvus has made for the Glock 43, Glock 43X, and Glock 48. See this Houdini of a holster in action in this video, and be sure to subscribe to TFBTV Show Time for full coverage of IWA and Enforce Tac 2024.

In a departure from their standard appendix and outside waistband holsters, T.REX Arms is now selling a hybrid holster for 4-o’clock carry. Unlike many other hybrid holsters, the  Ironside Hybrid holster fully encloses the trigger guard inside the Kydex shell rather than against the backer material. This design avoids the risk found in other hybrid holsters where the backer material can flex into the trigger guard and cause an accidental discharge when holstering up.

N8 Tactical have introduced their MultiFlex holster for compact and full-sized pistols. N8 Tactical say that the MultiFlex can be adjusted to fit over 275 pistols. The holsters have a number of adjustable retention points which ensure that the MultiFlex can integrate and reliably retain your firearm. MSRP on the N8 Tactical MultiFlex is $49.95.

I was assured when I started carrying my guns in an appendix inside the waistband (AIWB) holster, that I would promptly shoot myself in a very important area. Four years later, I am happy to report that I remain completely intact and a moderate proponent of AIWB carry. My current AIWB holster for my GLOCK 45 MOS with RMR and a full-size SureFire X300 Ultra weapon light has been my favorite for more than a year. But today we are going to take a look at the new Safariland INCOGX IWB holster system, a collaboration with Haley Strategic Partners. How does the new Safariland INCOGX stack up? Let’s take a look.

The 6000 series of retention holsters from Safariland is usually the go-to holster for those looking for a solid outside-the-waistband holster that’s not for concealed carry. The 6000 series has tons of variations for specific handgun, light, and optic combinations, but also has a pretty wide variety of standard and exclusive camo patterns available. Safariland just announced the latest addition to the lineup, the new Kryptek Highlander camo pattern for the 3654RDS, 6304RDS, and 6354RDSO ALS holsters.

SIG Sauer has issued a safety bulletin regarding light-bearing holsters. Without naming any specific model of handgun, SIG is warning end users that holsters that accommodate weapon-mounted lights have larger openings and can cause unintentional discharges. This safety bulletin comes against a background of recurrent claims that the P320 fires without the trigger being pulled, including a recent video from a police station where a P320 fired while in a holster.

Shield Arms makes more than just Glock magazines with additional capacity. The new Junk Sack is a fanny pack designed specifically for concealed carry.  It can hold pistols up to the size of a Glock 19.

Raven Concealment is throwing it back to the early 2000s with a re-release of their Phantom holster. It was discontinued in 2015, but Raven is reintroducing it for select pistols this summer. Let’s take a look at the lineup.
