Falco Holsters Debuts Rotating Shoulder Holsters
News Briefs - July/August 2024
Falco Holsters recently revealed a new collection of shoulder holsters designed to enhance concealed carry experiences. These shoulder holsters consist of the handcrafted leather D131 and D231 Roto shoulder holsters and the D901 Hybrid Roto shoulder holster.
“The light-bearing full-leather version of our successful Roto shoulder system has been eagerly anticipated and reflects our dedication to prioritizing customer feedback,” says Katarína Zacharová, Falco’s vice president of sales and marketing. “Our shoulder holster line stands out for its interchangeability, allowing all configurations to integrate into a single harness system seamlessly.”
Roto shoulder holsters boast a rotating function, enabling a vertical carry position for a sleek profile and ergonomic draw even with full-sized handguns. “When you’re ready to draw, simply unsnap the security strap, and the holster rotates to an angle that promotes a more comfortable grip and rapid draw,” Zacharová says. “The holster incorporates a leather security strap designed to be released by the forefinger and adjustable leather belt tie-down straps to keep your firearm in place. Strategically placed spaces in the leather harness allow extensive size adjustment to fit the harness to your body type. Combined with the leather harness, everyday carriers enjoy balanced weight distribution of the handgun and magazines for all-day comfort.”
D131 and D231 light-bearing Roto shoulder holsters feature a steel-reinforced forefinger security strap for secure firearm retention, innovative rotating design for ergonomic draw, and an open-bottom design for threaded barrels. In addition, a slit for a belt strap on the back side provides stability. The holsters are designed to accommodate more than 3,000 handguns and more than 50 models of tactical lights and lasers and are available with multiple harness and counterbalance options. SRP: $119.95, D131; $95.95, D231.
The D901 Hybrid Roto shoulder holster with a double-mag pouch
combines premium Italian full-grain leather with .08 inch of Kydex for optimal comfort and retention. “By incorporating a Kydex shell into our design and surrounding it with leather, people benefit from the comfort and aesthetics of leather plus the retention and stability of Kydex,” says Zacharová.
The rotating function allows for a more efficient and comfortable gun draw, and a tension screw allows you to adjust the retention of the holster. The vertical underarm carry position allows for safe EDC concealment, and the adjustable shoulder harness is tapered for weight distribution and comfort.
The holster can be configured for handguns with red dot sights and is ideal for large-framed firearms. SRP: $299.95. (falcoholsters.com)
