Apparatus and methods according to various aspects of the present technology may comprise a housing connected to one or more articulating arms. The housing may have a receiving section, such as a holster, for receiving an item for storage. The articulating arms may position the housing in a concealed location and then on command reposition the housing in a more readily accessible location so that the item may be retrieved.

A holster for a handgun comprising a holster body made of a substantially rigid and non-pliable material and configured for securely receiving a handgun therein. The holster body comprising a holster cavity configured for securely accommodating and partially embracing portions of the handgun, and a retention arrangement comprising a left-side trigger guard member and a right-side trigger guard member facing one another and configured for snug fitting within the handgun's trigger guard. At least one of the trigger guard members is a hinged trigger guard member, pivotally secured to the holster body.

A holster for receiving and withdrawing a handgun has a proximal wall portion with a handgun retention mechanism thereon. The mechanism having a first lever with a tab portion for actuation and release of a trigger guard, the lever having a snap fit into a lever region without a separate pin. A belt engaging member covers the lever region capturing the first lever therein. If a second retention mechanism is used, another lever with a tab portion is positioned so the tabs are stacked, depressing one also depresses the tab behind it, such that both mechanisms are released. Overmolded polymer layers in the holster body provides a softer interior handgun engagement surfaces. The holster body is split forwardly with a threaded fastener for clamping onto the handgun. No holster body is beneath or rearward of the tab portion, configured as a thumb button, allowing smooth transition to gripping the handgun. Accessories for the holster or belt engaging members are also provided which include a leg strap adapter that is rotatable and height-adjustable with a leg strap, a red dot sight dust cover that can be incorporated with the holster and a quick detach system that can allow for quick attachment and detachment of a holster.

A locking holster having a holster body defining an at least partial cavity portion; a locking element having a helical portion, wherein the locking element is at least partially rotatable between an engaged position wherein at least the locking projection portion of the locking element protrudes into at least a portion of the at least partial cavity portion of the holster and a disengaged position wherein at least a portion of the locking element is at least partially withdrawn from at least a portion of the at least partial cavity portion of the holster; a rod element, attached or coupled to a first end of the locking element; and an engagement lever attached or coupled to a second end of the rod element, wherein angular manipulation or rotation of at least a portion of the engagement lever results in angular manipulation or rotation of the locking element.

The present disclosure relates to a holster, comprising a control component, wherein the holster is adapted to allow a user the option of drawing a weapon and an accessory attached to the weapon. Further disclosed herein is a holster, comprising a control component adapted to receive a handgun assembly comprising a handgun and a light accessory attached to the handgun, and further comprising one or more actuators, wherein the one or more actuators are capable of moving between a neutral position and an engaged position, as the handgun assembly is inserted into the holster, retained in the holster, or drawn from the holster. Also disclosed herein are methods of using the holster.

An article of clothing comprises a waistband configured to secure and carry at least one object on a wearer's waist. The waistband includes a first portion configured to form a circumferential waist part of the article of clothing and include at least a first channel and a second channel, the first channel having an elastic band therethrough, and the second channel having drawstrings therethrough. The waistband also includes a second portion configured to include a plurality of belt loops evenly spaced and positioned along the first portion of the waistband, wherein the plurality of belt loops are configured to receive a belt assembly therethrough.

Example implementations relating to a deep concealment holster assembly are disclosed herein. In one particular implementation, a holster specifically designed and/or structured for a waist belt concealment may be adapted for a deep concealment.
