Things To Consider When Buying a Sig Sauer Mosquito Holster

Most people really do some research when they buy a firearm. Unfortunately, some people don’t realize how important it is to do some research when buying a holster. A holster is probably the second most important piece of equipment in your self defense arsenal.

Only you can decide the key features you are looking for in a holster. Comfort, concealability, safety, quality…..the list can go on and on. It is important to have a good idea of the key features you are looking for in a holster.

A holster needs to do two basic functions. It needs to keep your firearm secure and you need to be able to get to it quickly, if needed.

Price Vs. Quality

Not too many of us have money to burn. Most of us want to make sure, when we spend our hard earned money on something, it’s not going to go to waste.

The key is balance. There is an old saying that says, “You get what you pay for,” yet you don’t have to break the bank to get a quality holster. In the end, if you use your holster for self defensive carry, your life is worth paying a few more bucks for a higher quality product.

Retention

As I mentioned earlier, a holster need to do two things. It needs to keep you gun secure and you need to be able to access it quickly, if needed.

The way the holster keeps your gun secure is called retention. There are different levels of retention. Level one, two three, etc. The number correlates to how many features there are to keep the gun in the holster.

Just like how much you decide to spend, retention is also a balancing act. Too little retention and your gun falls out. Too much and you’ll rip your pants right off as you draw your weapon.

Materials

In addition to quality and retention, the material your holster is made from is also something to take into consideration.

Leather

Leather is probably the very first material that holsters were made out of. Leather is durable, long lasting and handsome. It becomes more comfortable the longer you wear it.

With leather you need to avoid heat and moisture and it does need some maintenance to keep it in optimum condition.

Kydex

Hard plastic holsters have some major advantages. They’re tough, scratch resistant, low maintenance, and precision molded to your gun.

Hybrids

Hybrid holsters blend leather and kydex for the ultimate holster. You can have the comfort of the leather up against your body and the kydex pouch where your gun goes. Hybrid holster are growing in popularity all the time.

Nylon

Nylon is the cheapest material for a holster. This is usually where you don’t want to skimp. Most nylon holsters don’t have much retention and the don’t support the weight of a gun very well.

Nylon holsters have their place. If you’re carrying in your home or around your yard, etc, they are fine. If you are trying to carry concealed or need something very secure and safe, kydex or leather may be a better option.

How To Wear It

There are different places to carry your weapon. After you have thought about the material you like, the level of retention you want, and the budget you have, you want to look at the different ways to carry.

Belt Carry

Carrying on the hip is the most popular choice. You can either open carry or concealed carry on the hip. Inside the waistband (IWB) is the most comfortable way to carry on the hip. The gun sits between your pants and you. The grip is about the only part of the gun that is above the pants.

Outside the waistband (OWB) has the whole assembly outside the pants. This is a good way to open carry, yet you can conceal this way with long shirts or jackets.

Shoulder Holster

Shoulder holster is what you see on all the detective shows. The holster goes over your shoulders and the gun sits under one arm and extra mags can sit under the other arm to balance the weight.

Pocket Carry

Pocket carry is popular with smaller guns. Not much is more convenient than putting your gun in a holster and slipping it into your pocket. Pocket holsters work for jacket pockets and front and rear pockets of pants.

Ankle Holster

Ankle carry is also for smaller guns. Most ankle carry is for a backup weapon. It can be awkward to try and get to your weapon on your ankle.

Putting It All Together

The different varieties of holster can be overwhelming. It seems people come out with new ideas all the time. Some ideas are game changers and some ideas are gimmicks and aren’t worth a dime.

Keeping all these different features and qualities in mind will help you as you look for a good holster.
