Trigger Guard
Small and light protection for you double stack Glock in 9/40/357sig. This fits the G17,G18, G19, G22, G23, G26, G27, G31, G34, and G35. The ambidextrous design covers the trigger area helping to prevent accidental discharge. If you want an even smaller version check out the Micro Trigger Guard. Many people like to cover their trigger when concealing a pistol in a purse or backpack but do not want the added size or weight of a full size holster. Multiple attachment points can be used to use 550 cords or your own lanyard to tie the standard Trigger Guard to an anchor point. For IWB, inside the waistband, this could be your belt loop. The body of the holster is constructed of .080 Kydex or for some finishes Holstex. Both offer excellent resistance to environmental conditions. Hot, cold, wet or dry will not harm your holster. Other thicknesses are available as a custom order.$25.00
Belt Drop Holster
The Belt Drop Holster is the happy place(ment) between having a belt holster and thigh holster. The mid drop design fits belts up to 2.25″ with an adjustable belt sizer. Holsters come shipped in the neutral vertical position but can be easily adjusted for forward or back cant angle with a standard Philips screwdriver. Retention can adjusted via the 2-3 tension screws. Additional levels of security can be had with the Thumb Break option. This rubberized laminated webbing secures across the rear of the slide and is easy to manipulate under stress. This strap is also removable. The single thigh strap helps stabilize the dropped holster. The leg strap features rubber anti-slip strips to minimize shifting while active. There is also an elastic webbing for additional comfort. This strap is also removable. All holsters come mounted directly to the belt drop platform. We do offer a variety quick-release interchangeable hardware that allow your to swap holster quickly or the move your holster from one platform to another easily. Some of the more popular are the Blade-Tech TMMS, Safariland QLS, and G-Code RTI. Essentially they all serve the same function but are not interoperable between brands. One side mounts to the holster (Insert/fork/hanger) and the other mounts to platform (thigh panel/ belt slide, molle adapter) and this is usually called the plate. Is one any better than another? That’s a personal preference as they all have their own following. TMMS puts it off the body the least, RTI is the easiest to swap out. QLS is the most ubiquitous. There is some adjustment in the holster placement in the Belt Drop dependent if you have a light selected. This can be 3/4″ to 1.5″ Additional holsters can be ordered by choosing our Molle Holster and Molle Weaponlight Holster. We try to provide the highest level of flexibility and cost savings. Just let us know at the time of order so we can pre-drill the correct hole spacing at no extra charge.$99.00

Competition Holster
Competition Holster for IDPA, USPSA, & 3Gun The Competition Holster is perfect for IDPA, USPSA, and 3Gun action shooting matches, general range use, or everyday carry. The low cut front allows the pistol to clear the holster faster and get on target sooner. If you measure time by the hundredths of a second this is the holster you want on your side. Dual retention screws, most models, lets you fine tune the draw effort and feel. You can make this as secure as you want. Adjustment are made with a common Phillips screwdriver meeting the most stringent IDPA requirements. A fully enclosed trigger guard meets all competitive sports rules and recommendations of most professional trainers. The low cut front is a popular feature. It allows you to clear the holster faster and get your muzzle pointed downrange sooner. This is also makes it compatible with Trijicon RMR, Burris Fast Fire, and JP Rifles JPoint style slide mounted micro red dot sights that do no extend past the slide width. If yours is different, let us know and we can typically accommodate your needs. Our design meets the rules criteria for both IDPA (International Defensive Pistol Association) and USPSA (including Production Division) as well as many other shooting competitions. If you are not an IDPA or IPSC shooter you should look into them. Both are very welcoming to new shooters and great way to improve your skills. Multiple carry heights are possible with the standard Tek-Loc belt adapter. It fits belts up to 2.25 inches. A standard 1.75” belt allows six carry height adjustments that can be locked in. You can add a FBI 15 degree forward cant or a muzzle forward cant in its base position. Other custom belt attachment models are available such as the Safariland QLS & ELS. We can even custom mold a holster to your preferred belt attachment. Vistit the Belt Accessory Page or just contact us. A flared opening is added for safety and ease. This allows the shooter to holster the pistol easily without the need to point the muzzle at themselves to get it started into the holster. Muzzling yourself in IDPA, USPSA, or in general is forbidden. Order the single color or two-tone model. The single color uses only the Base Color Option. When ordering the dual color model select the inside Base Color then the outside shell wrap color. You will also need to choose an edge reveal for two tone competition holsters. Single layer holsters should choose flush. Two-tone dual layer competition holster can choose any option. The bevel is tapers the outer layer in most visible areas and adds a nice polished transition to the inner layer. This is our most popular option just beating out the Thin Blue Line (TBL) reveal. The Thin Blue Line reveal was originally made just for our Law Enforcement customers but we had such a demand we added it as a option for everyone, in every color nad kept the name. This is roughly an 1/8 inch set back on the outer layer letting more of the inner layer be visible. Bevel and TBL are not possible on single layer holsters, though the system will let you pay for it. We have added the option to choose your sweat shield coverage. Sometimes call a shirt guard, the sweat shield is the part of the holster between the rear of the slide and your body. Low cut is the shortest and typically ends just above the belt attachment point. The full is the tallest, covering most of the slide. Different slide profiles and grips will vary just how much is covered on the full option. If you are a high thumbs forward gripper any sweat shield will work. Low thumbs forward grippers tend to like the low shield coverage. As a long time IDPA shooter (A054xx) and life member of USPSA (L26xx) we have heard that beep many times. We have also seen shooters held back because their holster was not suitable. I look forward to seeing you at the next competition. Lead times and more FAQs can be found here.

Shoulder Holster
From Miami Vice to Dirty Harry or a Yippee Ki-Yay NYC police detective, the shoulder holster has played an iconic role in movies and television. The Ares Tactical Shoulder Holster is an updated lightweight version using Kydex. This is a significant weight saving over older traditional leather versions and fit better than nylon models. We offer both horizontal and vertical carry holsters. Both models features an optional removable belt tie down. Each holster has a tension adjustment so you can adjust the retention to meet your desire. You can add a double magazine carrier on the other side. This really helps balance the rig and is a great way to have extra magazines at the ready. The shoulder harness is x-rig design that distributes weight well and helps to keep you holster and ammo where you place them. On the off side you can add a double magazine pouch or a combination magazine and flashlight pouch. Besides having those extra items you should be carrying easily at hand is provides great balance if you are not tying your holster into your belt. All shoulder holsters require greater care and training as compared to strong side belt holsters such as our Standard Holster. The disadvantages are it is very easy to sweep (muzzle) yourself and others on the draw. Also, it can be troublesome for people back problems. There are also some significant advantages wearing a shoulder holster. Among the advantages of a shoulder holster is access while seated. This is particularly true when you are strapped into your car seat. You can also stage your hand on the weapon under your jacket and still be concealed and inconspicuous. The shoulder rig is a great way to have your pistol and magazines at the ready for those bumps in the night. Many people find the shoulder holster in more convenient to draw with either hand. Tie down straps simple screw onto your kydex holster or mag holder and snap around your belt. We recommend at least one when choosing the vertical shoulder holster configuration. Don’t forget to pick up some threadlocker to secure all your screws after making the adjustments. We now offer A La Carte Shoulder Holster parts. These can be used with our harness or many other brands. Pistol Carriers: Magazine and Combo Mag & Light Pouches: Shoulder Harnesses Lead times and more FAQs can be found here.
