ABSTRACT:
An adjustable holster for accommodating a variety of handguns of differing sizes and shapes includes a rigid front spine member and two substantially rigid spine members and two sidewalls. At least one of the sidewalls is constructed of flexible interior, exterior, and core layers wherein the core layer is made of resiliently deformable material that will not stretch. An adjacent member mounted between the rear spine members carries a movable engaging element that contacts a handgun and forces it forwardly against the front of the holster. An upper adjustment screw mounted between the rear spine members is used to pull the spine members and sidewalls together to adjust the draw of the handgun. A lower adjustment screw mounted between the rear spine members is used to pull the rear spine members and sidewalls together to narrow the lower opening of the holster for different size guns. The sidewalls are flexible but not stretchable in order to accommodate a variety of gun widths without the need for repeated adjustment for the specific gun in use.
