<b>Blackhawk! Grip Break Leather Holster</b><br /> A new Italian leather rig, this pancake-type, slotted, high-ride belt holster has a patented retention device that I call a “thumb-break SERPA.” Typical SERPA latches are manipulated by the index finger. This device, however, is located on the back of the holster, and you press it with your thumb. It has an inner molded shell, molded release guard and will fit belts up to 1.75 inches in width. Three belt slots allow for a variety of cants and wearing options. (blackhawk.com)

G&G Model 894
<b>Gould & Goodrich Model 894 Low Profile Belt Slide (LPBS) Holster</b> Gould & Goodrich has produced a new concealment holster in two sizes that will accommodate most small, medium and full-sized auto-loading pistols. It’s bargain-priced, comes in tan or black and fits on belts up to 1.75 inches. It has the added protection of a body shield that prevents sharp gun edges from causing discomfort; this shield also serves part of the front belt loop and rear wall of the holster. A unique lipped rear slot at the lower rear of the rig holds the weapon in place via the triggerguard. (gouldusa.com)

Galco Gladius
<b>Galco Gladius</b><br /> The new Gladius is an improved version of a previously existing, very popular model. Made of premium steer hide, this high-ride, belt-slide-style holster retains the original’s quick-on/off feature, but now has a slight butt-forward cant and is full-slide coverable, as opposed to the silhouetted design of its predecessor. The snap-loops will take a belt width up to 1.5 inches, and the holster has a reinforced thumb-break retention strap and tension adjustment. This highly concealable rig is made for auto-pistols only.

<b>Safariland Model 7378</b><br /> This new design is unlike the older Model 6378 ALS concealment rigs in that it doesn’t have inner suede lining to protect the gun finish. Instead, the entire holster and paddle are made of abrasion-free nylon. Inside the holster, where most contact and friction occur, are integral ribs that limit the contact points where the gun touches the holster. Handgun retention is provided by the thumb-released ALS security system. An injected-molded paddle attached at the rear makes for excellent concealment. (safariland.com)
