BlackPoint Tactical Launches Duty Series Holsters

Tuesday, October 7th, 2025

ALPHARETTA, GA, October 6, 2025 – BlackPoint Tactical, a High Speed Gear Products Group brand, long known for their innovative concealment holsters, proudly announces the launch of its latest productfamily: The BlackPoint Duty Series featuring the Enhanced Duty Holster (EDH) and Slick Duty Holster (SDH), BlackPoint’s first holsters featuring additional levels of retention. These products were designed and engineered specifically for law enforcement, military, and prepared citizens who demand uncompromising security during the most demanding encounters, while providing a draw mechanic that remains smooth, fast, and consistent.

Based off the Master Grip Concept, the user can comfortably depress the retention lever to deactivate the retention mechanisms without the hand articulation and movement required to manipulate other duty holsters on the market today. The consistent grip allows for a fast, consistent draw stroke leading to more accurate and faster rounds on target. Further, the continuity in the mechanics of the retention lever activation is consistent across all levels of retention. This patented feature translates across the company’s product lines into the Taser holsters, diminishing training hurdles based on which system is utilized. Available in light compatible and non-light compatible models, the Duty Series offers several features not seen previously in a Duty Holster. One of these features is the patent pending SHIM™ system. By changing which SHIM™ is installed, the holster can be configured to fit different weapon lights. As your equipment changes, your gear can adapt with you. At launch, SHIMs are available to support the TLR-7, TLR-1, and x300 U/A models with more coming later in 2025.

Other key features of the BlackPoint Duty Series are as follows:

Retention Levels: Available in 3 level (EDH family) and 2 level models(SDH family).

Full Coverage Trigger Guard: Minimizes any object from entering trigger guard while pistol is holstered.

Optics Cover: Optional Optic Cover to help enclose the optic cavity when holster hood is closed

Barrel Plug: Allows the holster to function with or without the weapon light attached.

Retention Lever Overdrive: Lever range of travel beyond release enhancing draw performance.

Lever Extender: Extends the retention lever to enhance ergonomics based on user preference.

Material Thickness: Holster features durable unibody 0.125” KYDEX® design.

Mounting: Compatible with mounts from popular 3rd parties. *Adapter Plate Required

“The design team thoughtfully executed every detail of this holster based on feedback from real-world operators,” said Gary Robbins, Director of Law Enforcement Business Development at High Speed Gear. “This is the next evolution in professional duty gear and stay tuned, because there is more to come”.

“When you consider duty holsters, this is a piece of gear that must perform 100% of the time,” said Tyler Johnson, VP of Sales and Finance. “The BlackPoint Duty Series upholds that commitment and provides a strong alternative to individuals and agencies which have longed for innovative options in the market. BlackPoint is excited to enter this market and complement the industry-leading options offered by High Speed Gear.”

The BlackPoint Enhanced Duty Holster is available for pre-orders through company websites and dealers. Additional firearms compatibility will be added on an ongoing basis. Please continue to check back for information on new models.

Backed by over 25 years of tactical experience and real-world feedback, it’s built for professionals who demand rapid access and reliable retention for every shift and every draw.

  • Patented In-Line Magnetic Retention: A powerful nickel-plated NEO magnet provides constant holding force for secure reholstering, creating a rattle-free experience.
  • Thumb Activated Lock Block Guard: Optional Inline Lock Block

Guard is a thumb activated lock that clears the ILS pivot arm allowing, a clear pathway and ideal thumb location. When pushed down during the draw stroke, the operator’s thumb will be positioned on the ILS thumb pad, allowing for a fast, instinctive draw for both operations.

  • Debris-Flush Design: Open-bottom construction with internal passage ribs helps flush out brass and debris, keeping your equipment operational in any situation.
  • Carbon-Reinforced Lightweight Structure: Aerospace-grade carbon fiber rods reinforce the two-piece body, delivering durability without bulk.
  • MID-RIDE Duty Belt Mount: Features a patent-pending convex comfort system, flared bottom, and minimized hot spots.

           MSRP: $214.99

“Full containment is a new level up in the next generation of retention duty holsters”, said Bobby McGee, EVP of Product Management & Innovation and the inventor of the MFT Duty Holster. “We push the limits of retention by utilizing our Instinctive locking system’s full containment technology. It maximizes strength and durability using aerospace carbon fiber rod technology. McGee goes on to say, “We wanted to design and create a system that is safer, faster, and lighter for the frontliners that demand that out of their safety equipment.”
