Holsters

Pistol Holsters

The holster must secure the firearm safely while allowing for a quick and consistent draw. In this collection, you will find competition holsters for IPSC and IDPA such as the Ghost Thunder and Ghost Civilian, Safariland tactical holsters with ALS and SLS retention, Cytac and Orpaz polymer holsters, and models for concealed carry, as well as mounts and adapters.

How to choose

• Firearm model: the holster is specific to the make and model; if a red dot, compensator, or light is mounted, a compatible version is required.
• Side: choose the right-handed or left-handed version based on your dominant hand.
• Retention: retention levels range from simple adjustable friction to systems with active thumb release for professional use.
• Mount: verify the belt attachment system (belt loop, paddle, drop-leg platform, or competition belt mount).
