Holsters.....

Post by Phulish »

Regardless of company or material holster weights varie wildly so I've taken 10 of each type and vaveraged them. I also set aside a few for individual attettion.
Thumb break holsters mount on a duty or pants belt and use a strap snapped together to secure the pistol. One uses the thumb to flick it open while drawing the sidearm. .5kg/$50

Paddle holsters use a flap or "paddle" tucked in the belt or pants waistband to keep the holster positioned, Otherwise it's similiar to the thumb break holster. .5kg/$50

Inside waistband holsters have the holster itself concealed in the waistband..5kg/$55

Double mag pouch holds two mags on the belt or concealed in the waistband or on the opposit side of a shoulder holster. .16kg/$20

Single mag pouch is usually on the waist, but possibly could be ankle or wrist mounted..12kg/$9
I'm still working on the individual ones, stay tuned! :D

Thanks for the list. Any advantages / disadvanteges on Initiative for example or concealability? Can you shoot the weapon when holstered? I have also heard that the police occasionally has some kind of security holster which make the theft of the fire arm very difficult. Any idea on those?

I think holsters like the Serpa CQC and others would be covered by the coolness under fire. It's not like forgetting the safety or short stroking a shotgun. Serpas have a release where one's trigger fingerlines up when safely drawing the sidearm.

Thanks for that info. I have found this video which explains how the holster works. Very simple but very clever.

Mine is the civilian grey version with the paddle mount. It is a petty good synthetic holster. :wink:
