A holster shell is constructed with a horizontally oriented closed bottom wall, which along with opposing outward and inward facing sidewalls form a U-shaped cross section. A holster cavity is exposed along front and rear sides of the holster shell, through respective front and rear gaps that are defined between the sidewalls and the bottom wall. In some embodiments, the front gap of the holster cavity provides clearance for varying dimension, electro-optical or other sighting systems. In some embodiments, the rear gap of the holster cavity provides clearance for varying dimension laser sights and/or flashlight modules. Handgun retention features, such as trigger guard and/or ejection port conforming profiles, are defined within the holster shell. When a corresponding handgun is inserted within the holster cavity, the holster shell provides retention bias against the handgun.

Representative implementations of devices and techniques provide a holster mount assembly, to mount and to support an implement (such as a handgun, for example) or an implement holster (such as a handgun holster or shell, for example), or the like, in a variety of configurations. The holster mount assembly is arranged to be worn on a user's person, clothing, or gear (backpacks, gear packs, accessories, straps, belts, etc.), for example, for temporarily and safely carrying the implement, while making the implement easily accessible to the user. In various embodiments, the holster mount assembly is comprised of two primary components, where one of the two components is coupled to the implement or implement holster.

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.

A holster for carrying a handgun includes an elongated strap with a clip-on affixed to one end of the strap. The opposite end of the strap is formed as a loop. Functionally, the clip-on is used for securing the holster onto the belt of a user, and the loop is dimensioned to receive and hold the barrel of the handgun. In use, the handgun is held in the holster between the belt and the body of the user. Thus, the loop supports the handgun, and the user's belt is tightened to support and stabilize the handgun against the body of the user.

Chest worn utility pouch designed to provide easy, quick and safe access to a weapon, specifically a handgun. The pouch makes it easy for a user to grab, install and wear on their body and provides secure and quick access to the weapon stored inside. The pouch is supported by a neck lanyard for suspension and a waist lanyard for securing to the body. Requires no fine motor skills to operate thus offsetting the adverse effects of adrenaline. The rear pocket for a communications device affords the wearer hands free communications with the police, thus reducing the chances of criminal prosecution or civil penalty, post incident. The pouch conceals the firearm from view, thus allowing for possible de-escalation. Further, the present invention is designed to fit inside most gun safes or hides so that firearms are immediately deployable in a safe, but expeditious manner.

Representative implementations of devices and techniques provide a ankle holster assembly to mount and to support an implement (such as a handgun, for example) or an implement holster (such as a handgun holster, for example), or the like, in a variety of configurations. The ankle holster assembly includes a base having a receiver and a post having a shaft, the shaft arranged to be inserted into the receiver to removably couple the post to the base.

A holster comprising a body portion, the body portion comprising a port shell and a starboard shell that cooperate to define a cavity for receiving and holding the handgun. The holster comprising a pair of flat ears, the ears including a forward ear extending forward of the cavity and a rearward ear extending rearward of the cavity. The forward ear defining a forward slot and the rearward ear defining a rearward slot, each slot having a forward edge and a rearward edge. Each slot being configured and dimensioned to receive one of a belt and a clip. Each ear having changes in thickness adjacent the forward and rearward edges of each slot. The changes in thickness defining multiple discrete positions for receiving a holster body attachment portion of the clip.

A holster support assembly for use by a user wearing a belt is adjustable for both drop and cant. The assembly includes a belt support that engages and is supported by the user's belt, the belt support defining a plurality of drop positions spaced apart along the track to enable the user to set the drop position of the holster. The assembly also includes a holster mount supported on the belt support for sliding movement relative to the belt support, the holster mount configured for supporting a holster. The holster mount has a first condition in which the holster mount is engaged with the belt support thereby blocking rotation of the holster mount relative to the belt support, and is selectively movable into a second condition in which the holster mount is rotatable relative to the belt support about an axis to enable the user to set the cant position of the holster relative to the belt support.
