North Ridgeville, Ohio — Friday, 16 November 2015Raven Concealment Systems has released images today of a new inside-the-waistband holster called the Morrigan, which they will be releasing on Black Friday.
Named after a war deity from Irish mythology, the Morrigan is quite different from the products that customers are accustomed to seeing from Raven. “Historically, RCS is known for extremely modular, multi-functional designs,” said John Chapman, CEO of Raven Concealment Systems. “With the Morrigan, our goal was to create a much simpler design that was very application-specific. The Morrigan is designed to have a small, streamlined profile, and serve optimally for those who carry on or behind the hip, inside the waistband. It does this remarkably well, without requiring a bunch of extra parts and time spent assembling it.”
The Morrigan is ambidextrous, and has adjustable cant and adjustable retention. Other than attaching the soft-loops, it comes ready for use right out of the box. The holster body is very trim, and contoured for comfort for both right- and left-handed shooters. Of particular interest is the innovative “tourniquet-style” retention system, which uses a band of low-profile Velcro to “cinch” the retention down on the weapon, instead of the more traditional retention screw. This gives a much greater range of adjustment, while also eliminating the tendency for retention screws to back off and loosen over time. It also makes the retention setting more repeatable, since one need only mark the strip with a paint pen to indicate where “just right” is.
Also of great interest is the price-point of the holster: MSRP is just $49.99. “We wanted to make a solution for the daily-carry market that was highly-functional, but still fit within the budgets of departments and families who need top-quality concealment holsters,” said Scott Wilson, Director of Sales at RCS. “The Morrigan embodies all the quality and innovative design you expect from Raven, just simplified.”
The Morrigan will be in stock at RCS dealers starting on Black Friday, and will be available for the following pistols:
– Glock 17
– Glock 19
– Glock 43
– Smith & Wesson M&P Fullsize (9/40/357)
– Smith & Wesson M&P Shield
Would you have these for a 9MM FIRESTAR made by INTERARMS and also a full size 1911?
Obviously the list of products they are available are a few lines above your post.
Yeah but you never know, they may be the only non custom maker stocking for the three people that own a Firestarter
There’s always one…..
Glock 26/27 sizes please.
Geoff-
You actually will want the Glock 19 size holster to carry your G26. IWB holsters ride more comfortably and are more concealable when they are for a pistol with a longer slide.
Hey, quick question: These will be avaialable to other firearms through the custom area of the site?
Not initially, but there WILL be additional models coming soon.
Please do a version of this for a G19 with XC1 or APL. Please.
I’m not sure how I feel about calling a strip of Velcro innovative….I’d prefer microsuade. I also have had ONE “ambidextrous” holster (where both sides were EQUALLY high), and found that re-holstering was 60% more difficult.
Joe-
I think you are misunderstanding what the Velcro is for. It is not for padding; it’s an adjustable retention system. Substituting “microsuede” for the Velcro would not work.
The Morrigan uses a retention system which has not been seen before on holsters, making it, BY DEFINITION, “innovative.”
The Morrigan has been tested by numerous shooting and combatives SME’s prior to being brought to market, with ZERO reported issues with reholstering.
Will this is be made available with the clips?
Looking forward to trying the M&P one soon. I’d also like to see some light bearing versions – that seems to be one area where options are still fairly limited, especially with a DG switch.
Not to be yet another “that guy” but this and the Eidolon for the M9 family would be awesome.
Sig lover here. P239 40S&W
Ditto.
I moved this to an appendix position with a Glock19. wore a hiking backpack and hiked 6.5 miles offtrail. Adjusted the angle as needed as I hiked. No issues.
