Patent attributes
The presently disclosed subject matter is generally directed to a holster system that allows for quick and secure release of a weapon, while also allowing attachment to a wide variety of connectors. The holster system comprises a frame that interacts with and safeguards a weapon (e.g., a gun). The frame includes a fastener band that acts as a trigger guard and releasably secures the weapon to the holster. The frame further includes a barrel plug that acts as a vertical rest and stabilizer when the weapon is holstered, keeping the weapon secured. The frame cooperates with a spacer to allow attachment to a wide variety of connectors. The holster system enables the weapon to be securely maintained when not in use, yet available if needed by the user. The holster can be configured with an ambidextrous feature, allowing both left-hand and right-hand weapon draws.
