Concealment Holster for a Weapon

Abstract

Disclosed is a specialized holster design and system. The holster disclosed herein is intended to be used by an individual to carry a handgun on his or her person in such a way that the weapon may be partially or completely out of view, securely in place yet immediately available to be drawn from the holster when needed. The holster is variable in ways that also allow the user to make adjustments for comfort and tactical preferences. Once the weapon is drawn the holster remains open allowing one handed re-holstering. Among other attributes, four key features enable in part its broad ranges of functions. These four are the unique outer coating, the retention qualities, fold out attachment tab, and the particularly angled clip. The design enables a novel lightweight holster form fitted to the weapon and maintained securely in place firmly against the user's body in a concealed manner.
