BlackPoint Tactical Launches ARC-LOCK TASER Holster With Two Levels of Retention

Tuesday, September 15th, 2026

ALPHARETTA, G.A. – September 14, 2026 – BlackPoint Tactical, a High Speed Gear® Products Group brand, announces the launch of the ARC-LOCK™ TASER Holster, a professional-duty holster engineered specifically for the TASER® 7 and TASER® 10 energy weapons.

Designed for law-enforcement officers, military personnel and other professionals who demand uncompromising security for their less-lethal equipment, the ARC-LOCK TASER Holster features two levels of retention while maintaining a draw mechanic that is smooth, fast, and consistent.

At the center of the design is the BlackPoint Tactical Master Grip Concept. The retention lever is positioned so the user can comfortably reach it when establishing a full, natural grip on the TASER® . This eliminates unnecessary hand articulation and allows the user to maintain the master grip throughout the draw and presentation of the device. The result is an intuitive draw stroke designed to provide officers with fast, dependable access to their less-lethal option when seconds matter.

“Law-enforcement professionals should not have to choose between equipment security and immediate access,” said Tyler Johnson, Vice President of Finance and Holster Sales, High Speed Gear Products Group. “The ARC-LOCK TASER® Holster applies BlackPoint Tactical’s proven Master Grip Concept to the TASER®, giving officers two levels of retention without introducing unnecessary or unnatural movement into the draw.”

This holster’s first level of retention is an adjustable friction fit, while the second level is an auto-rotating hood. The hood is easily released by depressing the retention lever. Customizations offered include magnetic activation for the Taser® 10 and a hood augmentation plate which further enhances the security of the Taser® in the holster. Together, these features balance performance and equipment security with a smooth, natural draw stroke, giving professionals greater confidence during routine duty and rapidly evolving encounters.

Features include:

• Two levels of retention

• BlackPoint Tactical’s Master Grip Concept

• Belt and MOLLE mounting options (also compatible with 3rd party accessories)

• Durable construction designed for professional duty use

• Thread locker applied to hardware to help prevent screws from loosening over time

• Designed and manufactured in the United States

The BlackPoint Tactical TASER® 10 Holster has also been recognized through the National Tactical Officers Association’s Member Tested and Recommended Program, further supporting its suitability for professional law-enforcement use. The product appears among the equipment reviewed through the NTOA Member Tested and Recommended Program.

The ARC-LOCK TASER® Holster expands BlackPoint Tactical’s growing line of professional-duty offerings reflects the company’s commitment to developing dependable retention products around the real-world needs of law-enforcement officers.

The BlackPoint Tactical ARC-LOCK TASER® Holster is available now. For product specifications and ordering information, visit the BlackPoint Tactical website at: blackpointtactical.com/shop/arc-lock-taser-holster-2-levels-of-retention

Active Retention Meets Everyday Concealment

ALPHARETTA, GA, July 23, 2026 – BlackPoint Tactical, a High SpeedGear Products Group brand, proudly announces the launch of the newConcealed Duty Holster (CDH), an innovative, new active-retention holster designed to bridge the gap between traditional duty holsters and everyday concealed carry. Available in both standard and weapon light-compatible configurations, the Concealed Duty Holster provides the security of an active retention system in a streamlined, highly concealable outside-the-waistband design. Whether carried by plainclothes officers, executive protection professionals, armed security personnel, or responsibly armed citizens seeking additional firearm retention, the CDH offers retention without the bulk typically associated with duty holsters. The CDH launches with compatibilityfor the Glock 17 and the 19/45 with TLR-7 and TLR-7 HLX but other models are soon to follow.

Unlike conventional duty holsters that prioritize weapon retention and durability over size, the Concealed Duty Holster was engineered from the ground up to provide a lower-profile footprint while maintaining the speed, confidence, and security expected from a retention holster. Based on the proven Master Grip Concept of BlackPoint’s Enhanced Duty Holster (EDH), the CDH uses the same intuitive release mechanics, allowing users already familiar with the EDH platform to transition seamlessly between overt duty carry and concealed carry.

“The Concealed Duty Holster represents an entirely new category for us,” said Tyler Johnson, Vice President of Finance and Sales. “Customers have been asking for a holster that provides active retention without compromising concealability. The CDH answers that request by combining secure retention, exceptional concealability, and the premium craftsmanship BlackPoint Tactical has become known for.”

Constructed from precision-formed KYDEX®, the Concealed Duty Holster series features:

• Level II active retention

• Intuitive thumb-release mechanism based on proven Master Grip conceptfrom the EDH

• Optic-ready design

• Low-profile pancake-style OWB configuration for enhanced concealment

• Designed and Manufactured in the USA

T.REX ARMS Releases New Active Retention Holster

Thursday, July 16th, 2026

*The Titan was Designed to Provide Speed and Reliability Without Compromising Strength and Weapon Retention*

**CENTERVILLE, TN. – July 16, 2026** – T.REX ARMS is proud to announce the availability of a new active retention holster built for speed and reliability. The?Titan?combines a precision-formed Kydex shell with a rugged housing and robust locking mechanism that can be released quickly and easily, so that the weapon can be securely retained, but also rapidly deployed.

Every ergonomic detail is shaped to support a natural, uninterrupted draw and solid firing grip from the first touch. The ability to release the weapon even when pulling or twisting the gun at the wrong angle, drawing the gun before hitting the button, or any other things that may happen under stress and duress. This holster offers the fastest draw for people who have a high level of skill, and the fastest draw for people using it for the first time. 

The duty 0.125″ Kydex shell provides adjustable passive retention on the weapon or light, and many points of contact regardless of the locking mechanism. This ensures a rattle-free slim holster with wide support for Glock, Sig, S&W, Walther, Staccato, and more pistols, Streamlight and Surefire lights.

The Titan will also accommodate all optics up to and including the Trijicon SRO with armor, and it includes an optional and removable optic shroud designed to protect your red dot from large debris. The shroud opens automatically during the draw stroke, and when reholstering with most optics.  

All parts of this holster are available in multiple colors, and it is best paired with the T.REX LINK belt mount, which gives it perfect compatibility with our thigh strap for extra stability. However, it is also compatible with mounting systems from Alien Gear, Blackhawk, Bladetech, DARA, G-Code, Safariland, and more, and will work with or without quick detach systems or adapters.  

Every metal fastener on the device is made of stainless steel, and every moving part is glass-filled nylon, so there are no rust or corrosion issues that could cause jamming or binding. The ejection port lock, spring, and button are all part of a single component, reducing complexity. This holster has the fewest parts of any locking holster on the market, making it lighter without compromising strength.

The Titan was built on the premise that the user must always be able to draw their weapon when needed, regardless of circumstances. All mechanical systems will fail at some point, so the Titan is intentionally engineered to fail “open.” If the locking mechanism were ever to break, the firearm can still be drawn safely and without obstruction.  

The weapon will be accessible, whether the user executes a perfect draw or a suboptimal draw, and whether the holster is perfectly functional or has been catastrophically damaged. If damage occurs, the locking mechanism is user-replaceable, and field serviceable. The entire holster has the same lifetime warranty support as all other T.REX ARMS holsters.

T.REX ARMS designs and manufactures premium holsters, belts, targets, and other defense of life equipment engineered for real-world performance. Innovation, durability, and user feedback drive a brand that’s made in America by Americans, with a lifetime warranty and best customer service, for all who carry in defense of life. 

HRT Tactical Gear Releases the HRT Holster Adapter: A Semi-Flexible Mounting Platform That Moves With You, Not Hinders You

Thursday, July 2nd, 2026

A holster is only as good as what it’s mounted to. HRT Tactical Gear’s new Holster Adapter starts with that premise and builds up from there — delivering a rigid, reliable mounting platform that doesn’t punish you for moving around in it.

The adapter is constructed from dual-layer 1.4mm CURV® material, giving it the structural integrity to handle aggressive use while retaining enough controlled flex to stay comfortable during dynamic movement. The CURV® core is wrapped in laminated Squadron material — the same finish used across HRT’s lineup — so it integrates cleanly with your existing kit rather than looking like an afterthought bolted to your belt.

Broad Compatibility, Simple Installation

The Holster Adapter is designed to work with the mounting systems already in your holster drawer. It’s compatible with Safariland ALS/QLS, G-Code RTI wheel, and Blade-Tech Tek-Lok configurations, covering the majority of serious duty and competition holsters on the market. Included belt mounting hardware keeps the install straightforward.

The 2-column profile keeps the footprint slim, and the mid-drop carry position gives you solid access without the excessive hang of a full drop-offset setup. It’s sized for 2″ belts and pairs directly with HRT’s own ARC Belt 2.0 for users who want a purpose-matched system from end to end. For those who want to extend the setup, it’s also compatible with HRT’s optional 1″ leg strap kit.

Built for the Job at Hand

Whether you’re running drills at the range, transitioning in and out of a vehicle, or working through dynamic environments on the job, the Holster Adapter gives you a draw platform that stays planted when it needs to and flexes when you do. No wobble, no rattle, no compromise on access.

Color options include Multicam, Ranger Green, Black, and Coyote Brown.

Made in the USA. Backed by a Lifetime Warranty.

Crucial Concealment Expands Popular Universal Light Line with New Universal Light OWB Holster

Thursday, May 28th, 2026

ALPHARETTA, GA, May 28, 2026 – Crucial Concealment, a High SpeedGear Products Group brand, proudly announces the release of the new Universal Light OWB Holster, the latest expansion of the company’s highly successful Universal Light holster series. Building on the widespread popularity of the Universal Light IWB Holster, the new OWB model delivers the same innovative multi-fit capability and patent-pending retention technology in a versatile outside-the-waistband platform designed for range use, training, and everyday carry.

The Universal Light OWB Holster utilizes Crucial Concealment’s patent-pending Retention Shim™ system, allowing users to configure a single holster to securely fit a wide variety of pistols equipped with popular weapon lights. The system was designed to eliminate the limitations of traditional firearm-specific holsters while maintaining the secure retention, consistency, and performance demanded by serious shooters.

“The Universal Light platform has quickly become one of the most popular products in our lineup,” said Tyler Johnson, Vice President of Finance and Sales. “Shooters wanted the same versatility and performance of the IWB model in an OWB configuration, and this new holster answers that demand with the adaptability, value, and performance customers expect from Crucial Concealment products.”

Like its IWB counterpart, the Universal Light OWB Holster is built around specific weapon light families rather than firearm models, enabling compatibility across numerous handgun platforms when paired with supported lights. Current light compatibility includes:

• Streamlight TLR-7 Series

• Streamlight TLR-1 / TLR-1 HL

• Surefire X300 Ultra / Turbo Series

Constructed from rugged KYDEX®, the Universal Light OWB Holster features:

• Patent-pending Retention Shim™ technology

• Adjustable retention

• Adjustable ride height and cant

• Optic-ready design

• Low-profile OWB configuration

• Durable American-made construction

The Universal Light series was developed to address the growing demand for adaptable holster solutions as more shooters adopt pistol-mounted optics and weapon lights across multiple handgun platforms. By indexing retention around the weapon light and utilizing Crucial Concealment’s adjustable shim system, users can maintain a secure fit without requiring multiple firearm-specific holsters. The new Universal Light OWB Holster is available now through authorized dealers, distributors and directly from Crucial Concealment.
