What You Need In A Competitive Shooting Holster

What To Look For In A Competitive Shooting Holster

If you're interested in competitive shooting, then you know that having the right holster is essential. But what exactly should you look for in a competitive shooting holster? Whether you’re looking for an IDPA holster or a USPSA holster, here are some things to keep in mind:

Comfort

Competitive shooting can be taxing on your body, so it's important to find a holster that's comfortable to wear for long periods of time. Look for a holster that doesn't rub or chafe and has a secure mounting platform to ensure a snug, comfortable fit.

Stability

A good competitive shooting holster will keep your gun stable and secure, even when you're moving around a lot. Look for a holster with a wide, sturdy belt loop or clip that will stay in place on your gun belt no matter what.

Quick Access

In a competitive shooting situation, every second counts. You need competition gear that allows you to be able to draw your gun quickly and smoothly, so look for a holster that allows you to do just that like our Signature OWB Holster. A good competitive shooting holster will have a smooth, easy-to-use retention system that lets you draw your gun quickly and efficiently.

Versatility

A good competitive shooting holster should be versatile enough to work with a variety of different guns. If you're planning on competing with more than one gun, look for a holster that can accommodate all of them.

Durability

A good competitive shooting holster needs to be able to withstand the rigors of competition. Look for a holster that's made from high-quality materials that won't break down or wear out with extended use.

By keeping these things in mind, you can be sure to find the perfect holster for your shooting competition. With the right holster, you'll be able to shoot your best and take your game to the next level.
