This has driven many of us to buy countless holsters in pursuit of the one.
But first, you have to find that ideal EDC pistol.
For me, the Springfield Hellcat OSP (optical sight pistol) is a real contender.
The Covert IWB holster from Crucial Concealment gives you a discreet means of carrying an optic-equipped Hellcat OSP pistol.
The Hellcat OSP as an EDC has flipped the firearms industry on its head for multiple reasons.
Quick to follow that burgeoning trend set in motion by Springfield are holster manufacturers.
Now that carrying an optic-equipped micro pistol has moved into the mainstream, holster makers are taking note.
The holster is not only adjustable for cant and orientation, but can also be converted for left- or right-hand use. Shield SMSc optic shown equipped on the Hellcat OSP.
So, lets dive in and take a closer look.
So, I already have a mountain of holsters at home.
One key element to any holster is retention.
Adjusting the two Phillips head screws is all that it takes to adjust the cant or angle of the holster and how it will sit on your waistline. The holster is also swappable to be ambidextrous.
It is like the three little bears and their porridge.
You do not want too much retention or too little it needs to be just right.
This is something that is easily modifiable.
The holster is produced from rugged Kydex for durability and light weight.
Additionally, the holster is fully ambidextrous as it can be swapped for left-handed and right-handed shooters.
I appreciated all these features in the Covert IWB because it lets you create a more custom fit.
Not all holster manufacturers are thoughtful enough to employ something so simple yet meaningful.
Complete coverage of the triggerguard and trigger is key in any holster to ensure it is safe. The Covert IWB does a terrific job of this.
If it is too high it has an increased likelihood to tip or fall off your belt or pants.
Too low, and it is too difficult to draw your firearm in an expeditious manner.
Obviously, I like the fact the Covert IWB is made from this material.
The Hellcat OSP has helped reshape the way we look at optics on CCW pistols.
It was not long ago that having an optic on a handgun was a completely abstract and foreign idea.
So, pick one of these up for your Hellcat OSP I am sure you will like it!
