Henderson, NV \u2013 Hogue, Inc., America\u2019s premier manufacturer of firearm grips, stocks, AR components, knives, holsters, gear and accessories is proud to announce their line of automatic retention carry holsters for a wide variety of handguns. \u201cWe\u2019re designing and building first rate carry holsters from the ground up,\u201d explained Hogue President Aaron Hogue. \u201cWe see a great opportunity to offer a superior product at an affordable price point to practically everyone who owns a handgun.\u201d<\/p>\n

To that end, Hogue\u2019s holster line includes right and left-handed designs for all kinds of handguns from most popular gun makers including Glock, Beretta, Sig Sauer, Walther, Smith & Wesson, CZ and Springfield. All models feature the company\u2019s patented Automatic Retention System\u2122 \u2013 an ingenious trigger guard-lock design that\u2019s surprisingly hard to defeat when the handgun is holstered. A discretely-located thumb release on the inside of the holster makes for an intuitive, fast draw while re-holstering is quick and consistent thanks to a spacious pistol channel. \u201cWe sweated a lot of details,\u201d said Hogue. \u201cEach holster is uniquely designed for a specific model handgun so the fit and finish rivals a lot of custom designs out there.\u201d<\/p>\n

A closer look at a Hogue holster reveals a host of exclusive features built in: a flexible, comfortable paddle that conforms beautifully to the hip, an included belt plate option, and a built-in cant that eliminates the need for easy-to-lose spacers and washers. Most models can be configured for straight, FBI angle or cross draw positioning and all feature a contoured, low print profile. The entire line is intelligently-designed with an eye toward ergonomics, function and durability. \u201cWe\u2019ve designed our carry holsters for an intuitive, standard grip fast draw that\u2019s consistent over the life of the holster,\u201d explained Hogue.<\/p>\n
