T.REX ARMS Releases the New Ironside Hybrid Holster

Tuesday, March 19th, 2024

T.REX ARMS is pleased to announce the new “Ironside Hybrid Holster”, which utilizes our existing outside-the-waistband Ironside holster and converts it to a very comfortable inside-the-waistband rig with tuckable clips. The backer is made out of Alcantara and foam layers fused together to create a waterproof, sturdy, but comfortable pad enabling easy carry at the 3-4 o’clock position.

This hybrid style holster improves upon existing hybrid options, by maintaining complete Kydex coverage of the weapon for better performance and increased retention of weapon lights. It introduces a breathable, washable, rigid yet soft pad that brings all the strengths and none of the weaknesses of alternative hybrid backer materials.

The Ironside Hybrid Backer is compatible with all existing Ironside holsters and can be purchased as a standalone item. It allows users to switch from an OWB Ironside set up, which is ideal for concealment under jackets and winter wear, to an IWB system that is better suited for lighter summer wear.

Like all T.REX ARMS holsters, the Ironside and its backer are manufactured entirely in the USA: built to order in our Middle Tennessee facility, subjected to rigorous quality control procedures, and backed by a limited lifetime warranty and our world-class customer support team.

Raven Concealment Redefines Concealed Carry with Executive Select Series

Monday, March 18th, 2024

North Ridgeville, OH – March 18th, 2024 | FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Raven Concealment Systems has launched its Executive Select Series, a new line of super-premium holsters that promises to redefine concealed carry standards. This series marks a significant shift in holster design. Unlike traditional designs, the Executive Select series prioritizes human fitment over firearm geometry. This results in increased concealment and greater comfort.

They’ve returned to the drawing board and revisited the root problems of concealed carry. The common adage says, “Form follows function.” Unfortunately, this is often not the case with manufacturing, especially with holsters. In a perfect world, a holster’s “form” would follow the “function” of optimal concealment, comfort, and accessibility.

Instead, holsters are often nothing more than shells in the shape of the gun they are designed to hold. This rigid approach follows the form of the handgun. That rigidity results from the limitations of their construction. The Executive Select Series is looking to turn that all on its head and put the focus on the end user.

Human-Centered Design: Designed to prioritize comfort and concealment, contouring to the wearer’s body.

Premium Quality: Seamless fit and finish for a premium concealed carry experience.

Innovative Holster Shape: The holster’s body shape eliminates the need for “claws” to tuck grip.

Modular Carry: Ability to nest other essential carry items within void spaces inside the body of the holster

RCS has continued advancing its manufacturing capabilities, and this new line embraces those latest innovations.  This new approach is granting them unprecedented design freedom, and one of the benefits is that it allows them to create holsters tailored to the wearer’s anatomy. Based on what we saw and heard back in January at SHOT, they have a LOT more of the Executive series to show off soon.

Blackhawk Updates Popular Stache IWB Holster Line with New Mag Adapter Wing

Tuesday, March 12th, 2024

OVERLAND PARK, Kan. – March 11, 2024 – Blackhawk®, a leader in law enforcement and military equipment for over 20 years, has updated its popular Stache IWB line of holsters with a new Mag Adapter Wing to let the operator customize the ride angle for the spare magazine carrier.

Made of durable polymer, the Mag Adapter Wing kit comes with two different wings, one 25º and one 15º, to give the operator choices to best fit personal carry style. Both Mag Adapter Wings are drop-in and require no special tools for installation.

“The Stache IWB has been an incredibly popular holster amongst serious concealed carriers. The value that it brings to the table distilled into such a simple, comfortable, and practical way makes it a no-brainer for serious concealed carriers,” said Liam Yarbrough, Senior Product Manager at Blackhawk. “We noticed customer feedback that the old-design Mag Adapter Wing didn’t feel very strong, so we beefed it up a little more and went with fixed angles to ensure stability.”

The new Mag Adapter Wing Kit is included with all Stache IWB Premium holsters. To see the full line of Stache IWB holsters with Mag Adapter Wings, including new models to fit the Glock 26, Springfield Hellcat Pro and Sig P365X-Macro, visit www.Blackahwk.com.

SOTECH Debuts Their Springnose Taser 10/7 Holster, Airborne Cobra and Light Infantry Suspension System

Friday, January 26th, 2024

SOTech will be unveiling an array of new product designs at SHOT Show this year.  We’ve spent the better part of 2023 conducting field tests and interviewing soldiers from the 82nd ABN, Ranger Regt, Special Forces and 25th ID developing our Light Infantry Suspension System, Airborne Cobra Pack, and medical systems.  These tests are culminating in review by the Army over upcoming months.  The LISS supports ensembles including rifleman, medic, leader, SAW gunner, grenadier and breacher which will be on display.  The jumpable arrangement of the Cobra pack and our new series of scrim and ruck covers will also be shown.  Come by booth 20059 to check them out, and if you can’t make it to SHOT, check them out in our catalogs at: sotechtactical.com/pages/catalogs   US Patents and Patents Pending

After dominating the soft-shell market for Axon Tasers for 25 years, SOTECH launches its first plastic holster.  Rather than adopting a pistol holster to a taser, SOTECH designed the Springnose TM around the features and requirements of both a Taser 7 and Taser 10.  We worked closely with LAPD Training Division to absorb their requirements and lessons learned.  We came up with a holster design that encompassed these features:

• Accessed with either strong hand or weekhand draw.

• Slim body design takes minimal space on the belt.

• Downward and rearward draw eliminates accidental weapon misidentification.

• Compressing taser against spring plate and rotating rearward provides quick draw.

• Extra retention strap with thumb snap is removable, and sewn semi rigid.

• Secondary weapon release provided by thumb depression of top hook.

• Officer can screw adjust to forward, vertical, or rearward cant.

• Officer can rearrange holster to right or left-hand wear.

• Field repairable as bottom cap is removable for access to spring compartment.

• Belt clip secures with unique inverted buttons.

• Belt clip fits 2 ¼ patrol belt and inner clip fits dress belts.

• Made in USA and US Patented and Patents Pending.
