Vnsh Holster Review: Enhancing Concealed Carry Comfort and Accessibility
This is a belly band style holster that offers the ability to carry in different positions (appendix, small of back, 3 o’clock) and it comes with 2-built in mag pouches. It doesn’t offer the tools and principles of concealment that other holsters have however so it may be difficult to conceal for people with challenging body shapes or clothing.
What is the vnsh holster?
The vnsh holster is a great option for those looking to carry their firearm on the side of their body. It’s ambidextrous, modular, and works with 99% of all modern pistols. It has 2 built in mag pouches, is comfortable wherever it touches your body (especially with form fitting clothes), and features a “no stink” material that wicks away sweat and minimizes odor. It’s also available in a range of different attachments, including appendix, small of back, and 3 o’clock. It is a little bulkier than some other options, but it’s still very concealable. It’s also fairly lightweight. It can be purchased in either black or white.
How does it work?
The brand Safariland needs no introduction to most gun owners. They are the holsters of choice for tier-one special forces units around the globe and also LEO agencies nationwide. They aren’t cheap but they offer the best retention and safety in the industry. They have snap buckles for belts or permanent loops to thread your belt through and if you get in a tussle they will be impossible to dislodge. They can be worn appendix, shoulder, small of back, or 3 o’clock.
Does it fit my gun?
For those unfamiliar with kydex, it is a thermoplastic that molds to your gun for retention and can be very durable. It is also very thin and light, making it a great material for holsters. Many holsters use a combination of leather and kydex, with the leather providing comfort and support where it touches your skin and the kydex holding the gun in place.
This holster uses a similar design, with a leather backing and a kydex shell. This means that it will fit 99% of modern semiautomatic handguns. This is great, as it means you don’t need multiple holsters to carry your different guns.
Another great feature of this holster is that it has 2 built in mag pouches. This makes it easier to carry a full magazine with you, and helps to keep you ready for action. It also has a special “no stink” fabric that wicks away sweat and minimizes odor. This makes it ideal for long shifts in hot and dusty environments.
Is it comfortable?
The vnsh holster feels very comfortable to wear. They are not as slim as some other iwb holsters but they fit well against the body and feel like they will stay secure even if you get into a tussle with someone. They have soft materials where they touch your body and a “no stink” material that wicks sweat to minimize odor. The ambidextrous design makes it easy to rotate the holster and adjust for left or right hand draw or carry in various positions like appendix, small of back, or 3 o’clock. It also has built in mag pouches so you don’t need to purchase separate ones. This is a great option for those who need to carry several different pistols and don’t want to deal with multiple holsters.
