Drop Leg Holster

Posted by Dale @ 8:45 pm Baghdad Time in Deployment, Must Have Gear

Another item that I couldn’t live without during this deployment is the holster for my 9mm handgun. I bought the Vapor model from Spec Ops. It is a drop leg holster that fits my needs exactly. I see many people wearing the underarm holsters all throughput the FOB. The problem with those is that you can’t wear them with body armor. So you need a separate holster to wear when you put on your IBA. With the drop leg holster, I can grab my IBA, and I’m ready to go.

I added the single magazine holder to meet GEN Petraeus’ requirement to always have a magazine of ammunition with your weapon. I have additional magazines of ammunition in other pouches on my IBA. All in all, a holster that meets your needs is a must.
