A safety and retention device is provided for a weapon. The device has a first section that operates as a trigger guard cover or shield and is adapted to fit closely and specifically on the trigger guard of the weapon. The second section of the device operates as a retention clip that is designed to maintain or hold the holster (and weapon) on an item of clothing worn by a user. The first section and the second section can be integrally formed such that the first section and the second section share a common base.

A pistol mount assembly includes a clip body, a retaining body, a latch assembly and a locking cylinder. The clip body secures the retaining body to a person or object. The retaining body is optionally removable from the clip body and includes the latch assembly and the locking cylinder. At least one of the latch assembly and the locking cylinder pass within a trigger guard area of the firearm. The space between the trigger guard and the trigger is filled thereby preventing misfire. One or more latches or locking bolts are used to selectively overlap the trigger guard and/or trigger to prevent translation of the firearm off the retaining body. A two-tiered readiness function is realized through the pistol mount assembly. The assembly uses no holster but maintains effective securement of the firearm and is easily pulled at time of emergency.

An overmolded/through-molded pouch, having one or more wall portions defining a pouch body, wherein the pouch body extends from a substantially open top portion to a bottom portion, and wherein the one or more wall portions define an at least partial pouch cavity of the pouch body; at least one overmold aperture formed through a portion of one or more of the one or more wall portions; and an overmolding material extending atop at least a portion of an exterior surface of the pouch body, wherein at least a portion of the overmolding material extends through the at least one overmold aperture, such that at least a portion of the overmolding material extends through at least a portion of the at least one overmold aperture and into at least a portion of the at least partial pouch cavity.

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 is disclosed specially adapted for a long weapon, the long weapon having a pistol grip and a magwell. The holster comprises two separate brackets, an upper bracket and a lower bracket, where both the upper and lower holster brackets are adapted to be supported by a tactical vest with moly webbing. The upper holster bracket is U-shaped and snaps over the pistol grip of the long weapon. A detent is located on the inner surfaces of the U-shaped bracket which engages a channel located on the faces of the pistol grip.

A flexible pocket holster is used to secure and conceal a firearm within a pocket pouch, or similar receptacle. The flexible pocket holster comprises a holster fin, a support base, and a barrel-supporting rod. The holster fin is a flexible panel which is used to cover the trigger of a firearm and conceal the shape of the firearm. The holster fin may be sized or shaped to accept various types of firearms. The support base is mounted onto the holster fin, adjacent to a base edge and a barrel edge of the holster fin. The barrel-supporting rod is mounted normal to the support base and opposite to the base edge. When using the flexible pocket holster, the barrel of the firearm is mounted about the barrel-supporting rod. This helps to secure the firearm and allows the firearm to be easily removed from the flexible pocket holster.

A firearm support system (FSS) includes a buffer tube mount (BTM) having a first complementary component and a receiver comprising a second complementary component configured to selectively receive the first complementary component. The BTM comprises a shelf that extends from a ring of the BTM.

Representative implementations of devices and techniques provide a belt for an implement holster comprising multiple stacked layers, including reinforcement layers enclosed within outer layers of the belt. The construction of the belt allows the belt to be worn with garments that do not necessarily include belt loops, such as active wear and women's formal wear. An implement holster may be coupled to the belt, using one or more clip loops, to form an active carry holster assembly.

A modular firearm protection and alignment assembly and method of operation integrates with a firearm holster to align and protect the firearm. The assembly is arranged, such that a firearm is centrally aligned, and provided with a fixed stopping point in the holster. An upper base includes a platform defined by a protruding alignment member that projects upwardly from the platform. The platform serves as a barrier to prevent the firearm from sliding beyond a predetermined point into the holster. The protruding alignment member projects from the bottom of the holster to receive, and concentrically align, the barrel of the firearm with the holster. A lower base joins with the upper base through use of a fastening mechanism. The lower base has an elongated panel that couples to the upper base, and a circular panel that protects light accessories mounted on the firearm, and drains fluids from the holster.

A modular firearm holster safety retention assembly is operable with a holster to prevent unauthorized extraction or accidental drop of a firearm from holster. The assembly comprises a saddle that receives the barrel of a firearm, and a pivot release arm that couples to the saddle to selectively restrict movement or release the firearm in the holster. The pivot release arm detachably couples to the saddle. The pivot release arm has a first end with a protruding locking nub that engages the ejection port of firearm to restrict movement thereof; and a second end that is urged away from the saddle to disengage the locking nub from the firearm ejection port to disengage firearm from saddle. The saddle and the pivot release arm have interlocking wedges that restrict forceful removal of the firearm from holster. The saddle has a pivot stop to prevent overleveraging of pivot release arm.
