    Buying a gun opens up a huge range of complements, some indispensable like ammunition and other accessories that will depend on the use of the equipment. For those who own guns, holsters can fit as a fundamental accessory and should be a priority purchase every time you get a new one. You can also try a leather gun holsters.

    This accessory is not just for keeping your gun hanging while you are not using it. There are specific models designed for different purposes. A good holster must have its purpose well defined. Two main questions must be taken into account when choosing yours: what is the purpose and how much can you invest?

    Types of Holsters

    `Two groups comprise the types of holsters available in the market:

    • IWB (Inside Waistband) holster: Ported inside the waistband of the pants.
    • OWB (Outside Waistband) holster: Ported outside the waistband.

    Most holsters are designed to be carried at the waist, using clips or belt carriers. This is usually the most used location for shooters because it allows for quick draw, ostensible or concealed carry, and visual contact with the weapon most of the time, avoiding accidents. But, there are holsters for other body locations as well.

    Thigh Carry Holsters: Leather gun holsters have been specially developed to facilitate drawing by operators who are wearing thick vests, which hinder drawing from the waist. The thigh carry reduces the weight on the waistline, as well as facilitates access to the weaponry by the non-dominant hand, which is considered important in combat.

    The downside is that this type of carrying increases the draw time since the weapon has to travel a longer distance to the eye line. It also rattles more when you are running and, of course, kicking.

    Leg-carry holster: This is common for carrying backups (2nd weapon). It is limited to small arms and usually gets in the way of running and kicking. It also requires the user to wear pants with relatively wide bars so that the weapon is not easily detected.

    Subaxillary holster: Carrying it under the arm facilitates concealment of the weapon. It forces a cross draw, which increases the response time to an eventual attack. A serious defect of this type of holster is that the operator, not infrequently, is forced to disregard a safety rule and points the gun at his arm while drawing.

    Holsters for other locations: To conceal compact weapons, one finds holsters developed for the most unusual regions such as breasts, genital areas, and purses.

    Holster materials

    Learn about two of the most well-known:

    • Nylon

    It is a synthetic fiber, a kind of fabric. There are several types of Nylon, but the most used in holsters are the most resistant ones, such as 600D Nylon and Rip-Stop.

    • Leather

    It was certainly the most used material in holster production throughout history. Today it is outdated, but still the choice of nostalgic people. It is classic, beautiful, elegant, stylish, and, if well made, can even be quite functional, especially for waist leather gun holsters that are very tight to the body.
