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 rotating lock lever assembly configured as an additional security feature for a holster and may be useable in combination with a first user actuable handgun retention mechanism and a second user actuable handgun retention mechanism. The rotating lock lever assembly may include a housing, a pivot portion pivotally mounted to the housing and an elongate member extending from the pivot portion. The elongate member may include a lever button portion and a blocking projection extending from the pivot portion. The blocking projection may have an engagement surface configured to engage with a protrusion portion of a thumb button of the second user actuable handgun retention mechanism when in the protrusion portion blocking position. The rotating lock lever assembly is configured for manual movement of the rotating lock lever assembly between a protrusion portion blocking position and a protrusion portion non-blocking position.

A holster defining a holster cavity; a locking element extending from a rotation portion to a locking engagement portion, the rotation portion including a helical portion formed in or around at least a portion of the rotation portion, the locking engagement portion including a handgun locking portion, the locking element being rotatable between a locking element retention position and a locking element release position, in the locking element retention position at least a portion of handgun locking portion extends into at least a portion of the holster cavity; and a pushrod extending from a release lever, the pushrod being slidable between a release lever retention position and a release lever release position such that if the pushrod is urged to the release lever release position, interaction between the pushrod and the helical portion causes the locking element to rotate toward the locking element release position.

A trigger shroud assembly (14) for a small arms weapon (12) is disclosed. The trigger shroud assembly (14) may include a rail mount (22), an accessory body (28) slidably connected to the rail mount, a spring guide (24) disposed between the rail mount and the accessory body, a resilient member (26) arranged about the spring guide, and a starboard side trigger shroud (32) and a port side trigger shroud (34) connected to the accessory body. A belt clip (36) may be disposed on one of the starboard side trigger shroud or the port side trigger shroud. The trigger shroud assembly (14) may include a closed configuration (17) and an open configuration (27). The trigger shroud assembly (14) may include a tactical accessory (47) such as a flashlight. The trigger shroud assembly (14) may be secured to a handgun for inside the waistband carry and to deter inadvertent handgun discharge.

A holster for receiving and withdrawing a handgun having two active restraints and a dust cover. The holster further has a lockout button assembly comprising an elongated member having a lockout button portion on a proximal end and a blocking portion on a distal end, wherein the lockout button assembly is configured to be slidingly mounted to a housing for manual movement of the lockout button assembly between a protrusion portion blocking position and a protrusion portion non-blocking position, wherein the blocking portion is configured to block rotation of the protrusion portion and the thumb button when in the blocking position, and wherein the blocking portion is configured to allow rotation of the protrusion portion and the thumb button when in the non-blocking position.

A holster system that comprises a holster and an accessory configured to be fixed to a mounting rail of a handgun. The holster has a holster body with a pair of opposing wall portions defining a cavity. A retention mechanism of the system has a blocking portion movable between a blocking position and a non-blocking position. The blocking member at least inhibits removal of the handgun and accessory if the handgun and accessory are urged rearwardly before a thumb receiving portion is depressed. The blocking portion is on a spring member that is deflected by an elongate exteriorly extending sliding member that has a cam surface that selectively deflects the spring member from the blocking position.

Holster, support and anchorage quick release system for guns that comprises left and right assembly parts configured to guide the gun when holstered, a trigger guard ratchet, a release button and a locking mechanism, wherein the left and right assembly parts configure a holster that is laterally opened where, once the gun is holstered, the muzzle and the full length of the barrel remain leaning outwards, the holstering of the gun activates the ratchet when yielding under the insertion of the trigger guard, locking the gun in the holster and the release of the gun is produced by the actuation on the locking mechanism and the release button, so that the drawing of the gun is performed perpendicularly to the barrel, allowing to aim from the very first instant of the release of the gun, avoiding unneeded movements and providing a shooter with more time.

A holster for receiving and withdrawing a handgun having two active restraints and a dust cover. The holster further has a lockout button assembly comprising an elongated member having a lockout button portion on a proximal end and a blocking portion on a distal end, wherein the lockout button assembly is configured to be slidingly mounted to a housing for manual movement of the lockout button assembly between a protrusion portion blocking position and a protrusion portion non-blocking position, wherein the blocking portion is configured to block rotation of the protrusion portion and the thumb button when in the blocking position, and wherein the blocking portion is configured to allow rotation of the protrusion portion and the thumb button when in the non-blocking position.
