GunfightersINC Spectre Shoulder Holster

GunfightersINC has been teasing the release of their new shoulder holster for several weeks. The Spectre is now available.

The Spectre Shoulder Holster is a classic design rendered in modern materials. It carries much like many classic shoulder holsters with the butt of the gun under the wearer’s support side arm but thanks to the inherent retention of molded kydex, secondary retention methods like thumb breaks are not necessary. This smooths the draw stroke and keeps bulk to a minimum.

This holster and harness have been designed to move with the wearer. GunfightersINC used pivoting buckles instead of standard side release buckles and built in elastic panels to allow the 4 point harness to flex as the wearer moves. G-Hooks are used to make attaching the Spectre to the belt both easy and secure.

The Spectre is very modular. It come standard with a holster on one side and a single magazine pouch on the other. However, these can be replaced with holsters for different handguns or other accessory carriers like a double mag pouch or even a silencer carrier. Swapping is easily accomplished by releasing 2 buckles.

The Spectre is available for purchase but the current handgun is limited. Limited may not be the right word since several popular handguns like Glocks, 1911s, the S&W Shield, and more are available including handguns with mounted lights. As production ramps up, more options will be available.

Check out the Spectre Shoulder Holster at GunfightersINC.

On a related note, I appreciate that GunfightersINC shows a proper shoulder holster draw stroke in their product images. It is far too easy to muzzle part of your arm when drawing from a shoulder holster and GunfightersINC gets it right by showing the support side arm in a high guard position (see image above).

Bladerigs Eidolon Clips

The Raven Concealment Eidolon Holster is a modern marvel. It’s an injection molded polymer holster done right. The Eidolon is very usable right out of the box but Blade Rigs is now offering upgraded clips that are worth a look.

To understand why an Eidolon Holster owner might consider these clips, you have to understand how good the Bladerigs clips really are. They are very durable but more importantly, they are very tenacious. Many of the metal clips used on holsters come loose far too easily. These clips go onto your belt and do not come off until you want them too.

The Bladerigs Eidolon Clips are available in two configurations – a single broad clip or two more narrow clips. Both configurations have the clips mounted on a kydex backer that bolts directly to your Eidolon without modifcations so you can easily swap hardware.

PHLster Glock Skeleton Holster Updated

Typically when you see terms like faster, better, or cleaner, you can expect the new few words to tell you it’s also more expensive. That isn’t the case with the new PHLster Skeleton Holster. The Philly Kydex Guru has improved the definition, streamlined the production, and tossed a bit of innovation into the already excellent Skeleton Holster… and then dropped the price by $10.

From PHLster:

Advancements in our forming process allowed us to create more consistent and precise shells for the Skeleton holster. Being able to rely on this consistency gave us the opportunity to add a second axis of retention and employ a unique two-piece shell design, substantially reducing production times by eliminating the steps of folding and re-touching the shells.

In addition to being traditionally retained against vertical draw forces, the gun is also retained against forces which could cause the gun to push through the open seam of the sight channel. Without the improvements in molding, we could not have effectively prevented this from happening and would not have been able to increase production speed and lower the cost. The holster maintains its original reliable and secure retention and quality feel, with a deliberate, snappy draw and a smooth, crisp, positive engagement when holstering the gun.

If you speak Kydex, you’re already impressed. If you don’t speak Kydex, I can break it down for you. This holster is made of two halves that are bolted together beneath the trigger guard and left open along the sight track. The sight track would normally be closed along its length because most holsters of this type are folded from a single piece of kydex along the track. Holsters can often go a bit awry during the process of folding. The sight channel can collapse or flare during folding. Ensuring that doesn’t happen and fixing it when it does is a large part of the fitting process. PHLster just eliminated that all together with this design.

This new design required some clever re-imagining of the holster’s retention and this was only possible because of their recent improvements to their molding process. It now retains in two directions instead of just one. Typically, kydex holsters retain on the trigger guard, preventing the gun from moving up and out of the holster. The new Gen 2 Skeleton Holster does that AND retains the gun from pushing out the sight track too. This is accomplished with a unique L shaped detent.

The Gen 2 Skeleton Holster has an ambidextrous design with an adjustable strut and is tuckable. It is available now for G26/19/17/34/17L and similar Glocks. Compared to its predecessor it has better definition, streamlined production, a heaping helping of innovation, and it costs less. How cool is that?
