We talk a lot about the advantages of modern revolver holsters and how they beat a traditional leather holster nearly every time. After all, they’re more comfortable to use, stay put on your belt better, are faster to draw, and put the grip exactly where you want it.
But for all of the advantages we’ve given you, we haven’t yet told you how to decide which revolver holster is the right one for your firearm. Let’s take a look at the simple process for finding the one that will keep your revolver exactly where you want it.
Why Do You Need It?
First of all, you need to decide what you’ll be using your revolver holster for most. Not every holster is the same and will deliver the same advantages, so we have three distinct categories of holsters for revolvers.
- Regular Revolver Holsters – Most people will start here. These are the standard (and in our case, that means high quality) revolver holsters that are a perfect blend of comfort, speed, and style, all while being low profile so they don’t get in your way.

- Speed Holsters – When you need to draw as quickly as possible, these are the holsters you need. Whether you’re practicing at the range or are in IDPA or USPSA competition, these holster allow faster draws than any others. We also specialize in left-handed speed holsters, so check them out.
- Concealed Carry Holster – Keep your carry concealed and secure with these concealed carry holsters. They’re comfortable and low profile so that no one can tell you’re carrying…and you might ever forget yourself!
The good news is that many of our holsters are adjustable so that you can change the grip they retain on the revolver itself. If that’s important to you you, keep an eye out for this feature as you’re shopping.
