Abstract:

A holster for a concealable handgun has a front assembly, a rear assembly, and straps for securing the holster to a user's body. The front assembly and rear assembly are joined to each other to form a pocket, open at the top, to receive a handgun. Each of the front and rear assemblies is formed from a sandwich of flexible fabric folded in half to form a top edge, and joined to each other to form the pocket opening at the top. The rear assembly further includes a waterproof layer of fabric to act as a barrier preventing moisture from the user to affect the handgun. A strap is secured to each side of the open top edge and the straps adjustably secured to each other around the user. When the straps are secured, tension passes through the open top of the pocket forcing the top edges of the first and second assemblies closed and securing the handgun in the pocket.
