What to consider when choosing a holster shell

As a gun owner, you know that it is essential to have a holster that fits your firearm and body type. However, with so many holster shells on the market, it can be challenging to decide which one is right for you. This guide will help you consider the critical factors when choosing a holster shell.

1. Consider what you’ll be using the holster for. First, ask yourself if you plan to use the holster when concealed carrying or when open carrying. Next, you will want to select a shell best suited to your purpose.

2. Choose a shell that fits your gun perfectly. It may seem obvious, but it is essential to choose a Kydex shell that fits the model of your firearm precisely so that there isn’t any room for movement once it’s in place and can also guarantee complete protection of both the weapon and the trigger guard area in case of an accident with an accidental discharge (AD).

3. Make sure the shell is made of durable material. Kydex holsters are usually offered in Kydex-T or Kydex-I. Kydex is a thermoplastic material that has been used for decades by the local police and military because of its durability and resistance to extreme weather conditions.

4. Check to see if the shell has any special features. Kydex shells with special features include belt loop attachments, adjustable cant, extra mag carriers, retention screws for an even more secure hold on your firearm, custom colors & designs, leather sweat guards, etc. You can also find Kydex shells explicitly designed for single-handed holstering or double hand draw holstering, as well as some high-quality Kydex holsters with thumb break straps.

5. Find out how easy it is to change shells. Kydex shell replacement is straightforward, so you can change your Kydex shells to another Kydex holster or switch it with a Kydex shell from another firearm model if you own more than one Kydex holster. Replacing Kydex shells is quick and straightforward, but be sure to follow the manufacturer’s instructions on how to do this correctly not to damage your Kydex shell.

6. Compare prices and find the best deal. The cost of Kydex holsters varies depending on manufacturer, quality, design, features, material used for construction, etc. Still, they are usually considered an affordable option for gun owners who want a durable Kydex that will last them many years of use. Kydex shells on Kydex holster models are usually interchangeable or swappable, ensuring that you can always have a new Kydex shell for any model of firearm as well as an old Kydex shell for a previous gun model if you want to purchase another Kydex holster.

Kydex holsters are made from thin sheets of Kydex molded into shape and affixed to a base material such as leather or cloth. Kydex is a thermoplastic material that has been used for decades by the local police and military because of its durability and resistance to extreme weather conditions. Kydex shells on Kydex holster models are usually interchangeable or swappable, ensuring that you can always have a new Kydex shell for any model of firearm as well as an old Kydex shell for a previous gun model if you want to purchase another Kydex holster.
