TACO Tuesday – Double Your Choices with the DCH

Tuesday, January 25th, 2022

HOUSTON, TX – January 25, 2021 – IWB or OWB, Comp-Tac® has you covered with the Dual Concealment Holster.

The Dual Concealment Holster allows users with different lifestyles to have various carry methods in just one holster. This 100% aircraft-grade Kydex® holster allows for both inside-the-waistband or outside the waistband (OWB) wear. The DCH is perfect for concealed carry and comes with an Infidel™ Belt Clip and paddle attachment for easy on-off access. This holster fits all the most popular makes and model handguns, including Glock, Smith and Wesson, Sig Sauer, Springfield, STI, and Walther.

“Many of our law enforcement customers enjoy carrying both on and off-duty which gave us the idea of designing the Infidel™ Belt Clip onto DCH™ Holster,” said Gordon Carrell, general manager of Comp-Tac. “Our Infidel™ Belt Clip has been a favorite for years because of the cant adjustability.” This clip can be adjusted to a cross draw cant, speed cant, and a FBI forward cant depending on the users preference.

The paddle attachment was molded with wings to grip the bottom of the belt to keep the holster stationary during draw at the 3 o’clock position. Similarly, to the Infidel™ Belt Clip, you can cant the paddle for the customer’s choice.

Blackhawk Expands Stache Lineup with R.A.H.C. Belt Pack, N.A.C.H.O. Belly Band

Thursday, January 20th, 2022

VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. – January 19, 2022 – Blackhawk®, a leader in law enforcement and military equipment for over 20 years, announces two additions to the Stache family of concealed carry products with the introduction of the Stache R.A.H.C. (Rapid Access Holster Carrier) Belt Pack and the Stache N.A.C.H.O. (Non-Conventional Adaptive Carry Holster Option) Belly Band.

The Stache R.A.H.C. Belt Pack is specifically designed for rapid access to your handgun by pulling up on the bottom of the storage compartment, which is held by rare earth magnets, or stealth access by using the top access zipper. Lightweight and with tough, 200D water-resistant polyester construction, the Stache R.A.H.C. is built around a rigid 1.5″ double layer SCUBA™ webbing that secures a Glock 19-sized Stache IWB holster or similar system (holster not included). This makes the Stache R.A.H.C. a good alternative when carrying inside-the-waistband isn’t practical.

Completely ambidextrous, the Stache R.A.H.C. boasts adjustable straps from 26″ to 58″, allowing the pack to easily transition from waist pack to behind-the-back pack to over-the-shoulder pack depending on the carrier’s needs. A 3-D mesh backer provides comfortable padding and breathability when on the trail or exercising.

Outside, the Stache R.A.H.C. features a small 7″ x 3.5″ pocket that’s perfect for smart phone storage.  On the inside, a larger zippered mesh 7.75″ x 5.5″ pocket easily accepts other personal items. The concealed handgun compartment is padded to reduce printing.

The Stache N.A.C.H.O. Belly Band is a great concealed carry solution for those days a carrier might be wearing board shorts, gym shorts, sweatpants, yoga pants or a skirt. Constructed with a 4″ tall, double-ply elastic band and a hook-and-loop closure, the N.A.C.H.O. Belly Band hugs your body for a secure fit. Rigid 1.5″ double layer SCUBA webbing secures a Glock 19-sized Stache IWB holster or similar system (holster not included), plus other pockets hold cell phones, flashlights or spare magazines.

Besides the N.A.C.H.O. Belly Band’s carrying capacity, it’s designed for all-day comfort. Rounded band ends reduce hot spots, and a generous 3-D mesh backing creates padding and breathability when things get hot. The double-ply elastic band is strong enough to support your firearm while also flexing around your body for optimized comfort. Available in five sizes from extra small to extra large, the N.A.C.H.O. Belly Band can be adapted for multiple carry positions including appendix, hip, behind-the-hip and upper torso carry.

The Stache R.A.H.C Belt Pack has an MSRP of $89.95 and the Stache N.A.C.H.O. Belly Band has an MSRP of $44.95. The new Stache products will be showcased to the public during the 2022 SHOT Show and will be available at retail this April.

Tuesday, January 11th, 2022

HOUSTON, TX – January 11, 2021 – Comp-Tac® is taking it to the next level with their new Level II and Level III holsters.

As a holster manufacturing company Comp-Tac produces Kydex® holsters that are 100% American-made for law enforcement, military, range use, and competition shooters. The newest duty holsters, including the CT3™, CT2-A™, and CT2-H™, took years of abundant testing and collaboration from various departments and members of the law enforcement community.

The CT3™ features three levels of retention including hood, automatic ejection pork lock and friction retention to prevent unintentional removal of the handgun, while still maintain a master grip. There are multiple mounting options including the drop offset, CT3™ Mid-Ride Belt Mount, SQR™, PLM™ (Push-Button Locking Mount), and an adaptor plate for QLS system. “Every one of our holsters is fit checked in a Q & A process to real handguns to ensure that there is no undesired movement of your gun,” explained Gordon Carrell general manager of Comp-Tac. “Overall, we wanted to present a solution for every single person who serves on the front line to know that they are safe and will come home at the end of the day.”

Comp-Tac Holsters also offers the CT2™ Series of holsters. The CT2-A™ is designed with economy of motion, and two levels of retention, including the ejection port lock and friction retention. The activation lever only releases the ejection port lock when held down during the draw like the CT3. These features in the CT2-A have grown increasingly popular for law enforcement and military alike.

In the same series of the CT2-A, is the CT2-H™ Holster that features a thumb-activated hood and friction retention. The aircraft-grade Kydex® is expertly formed to restrict undesired movement of gun with no “holster rattle”.

Raven Concealment Systems Announces Signature Reduction from MATBOCK for Holsters and Accessories

Tuesday, December 7th, 2021

Raven Concealment Systems announced today an exciting new partnership with MATBOCK to provide Near-IR compliant signature reduction for the RCS product line.

The result of this partnership is that RCS will now be able to offer their holsters and magazine carriers clad with MATBOCK Skins.  The Skins provide significant signature reduction under both visible light and infrared/night vision, while also reducing noise signature of anything that scrapes against the outside of the holster.

MATBOCK introduced the Skins over a year ago, and since that time, they have been used extensively on helmets, dive fins, night vision goggles, and countless other pieces of kit where durable signature reduction was required.

Michael Goerlich, owner of Raven Concealment Systems explains:

“Normally, when we talk about how great our holsters are at ‘concealment,’ we’re talking about how we designed them to hug your body very closely to make it easier to hide them under clothing.

But for some missions, ‘concealment’ means something completely different.  Sometimes, the holster needs to blend in with a uniform.  Sometimes, it needs to be Near-IR Compliant so that it doesn’t show up as a glowing orb when someone is looking at you through night-vision goggles.

Some companies will use hydro-dip to put a Multicam pattern on their holsters.  This kinda ‘looks’ like Multicam (if you don’t look too closely) but it doesn’t do anything to reduce noise signature, and it actually makes your gear stand out even more under night-vision than if they had just left it black.

Other companies accomplish signature reduction by gluing Cordura nylon onto their holsters.  While that method does help with signature reduction, the MATBOCK Skins provide equal or superior signature reduction while also weighing less and being much more precisely fitted – which means they also happen to look significantly better in daylight, when your friends are admiring your gear.

This is why we are so excited to announce this partnership:  MATBOCK now provides our product-line the best Near-IR compliant signature reduction solution available on the market.”  

Just in time for the holidays, RCS has released a special bundle of their products featuring MATBOCK Skins.  Each bundle includes a Lictor M4 rifle magazine carrier, a Lictor G9 dual pistol magazine carrier, and your choice of either a Glock 19 or a Sig P320C/M18 Perun, all shipped with Multicam MATBOCK Skins factory-installed.  These bundles are available here:  rcsgear.com/matbock-ir-signature-reducing-government-kit

The Dual Concealment Holster – DCH is the best solution on the market for users who need versatility in their carry methods. Offering both IWB or OWB carry options, the DCH is fast to put on or take off and adapts to each user’s needs.

With adjustment, the clip can be configured to carry at appendix, 3:00 side carry or behind the hip.

The paddle is worn inside the waistband, allowing the holster to fit at any position on the belt line and can be put on or taken off in a matter of seconds, but stays securely during the draw with the molded wings.

“Many individuals that carry concealed have a variety of holsters for different weather, clothing options, guns and carry methods. While no one holster can be the answer to every situation, the Dual Concealment Holster was designed to help those users who want to switch between inside the waistband carry and outside the waistband carry simply and easily,” explained Randi Rogers, director of brand management at Comp-Tac.
