ABSTRACT:
A pistol holster having features to prevent unauthorized withdrawal by an assailant. The holster has a body of flexible material, closed at the front and rear to define a pocket for receiving a pistol. The upper rear portion of the holster has a trigger guard pocket for receiving the trigger guard member. The trigger guard pocket extends up over a portion of the trigger guard member so that if the pistol is drawn from a rearwardly direction with respect to the barrel axis, the trigger guard pocket will exert a substantial drag on the pistol, preventing the withdrawal. The trigger guard pocket leaves a portion of the trigger guard uncovered at the top so that the pistol may easily be withdrawn in the direction parallel with its barrel axis. The belt loop assembly has a threaded screw connected between the body and belt loop assembly to selectively pull the holster body tightly against the user, providing rigidity and making the pistol less accessible to an assailant. A second threaded screw is connected between the two sides of the loop to draw the bottom together, preventing slippage of the holster along the belt.
