ABSTRACT:
An improved front opening holster including depending enclosed spring members extending along the edges of the front closing. The spring members have free ends and are operatively secured together by a retainer in the completed holster but relatively movable during manufacture to facilitate production.
The body includes an elongated stiffening member providing attachment point for a belt loop and defines a cylinder cup shape as well.
The belt loop includes a stiffening member and a distortable spacer and tightening means to expand and contract the spacer to selectively engage or release the belt to afford both free movement and fixed engagement with the wearer's belt.
The hammer of a handgun positioned in the holster is covered by an overlying strap. A thumb strap with a selective direction release fastener engages the overlying strap in a recess between the handgun and the belt loop.
A novel method for producing a spring closed holster, particularly the spring assembly, is disclosed.
