Frequently Asked Questions

What are the best holster options for concealed carry?

For concealed carry, consider specialized holsters like the Tier 1 Concealed Optio V2 for light-bearing firearms, or the Phlster Enigma for beltless carry with athletic wear. Holsters with wings or claws, such as those from Inheritance Armory, are excellent for minimizing printing during appendix carry.

How can I improve firearm concealment?

To improve firearm concealment, focus on minimizing "printing" by using holsters with wings or claws, like those from Inheritance Armory. Choosing the right holster attachment, such as an Ulticlip for beltless carry or a well-designed sidecar holster from Vedder Holsters, also significantly impacts how well your firearm remains hidden.

What is a beltless holster system?

A beltless holster system, exemplified by the Phlster Enigma, is a chassis designed for concealed carry that does not require a traditional gun belt. It's ideal for individuals who prefer to wear athletic clothing, leggings, or other garments without belt loops, offering a secure and comfortable carry option.

Which holsters are suitable for competition shooting?

For competition shooting, holsters like the Black Scorpion Gear setup for the Canik SFX Rival are often preferred for their secure retention and quick draw capabilities. These holsters are typically designed for specific firearms and competition rules, ensuring reliable performance under pressure.
