Gun Holster
In the last 150 years, weapons have evolved significantly. Since weapons were as simple as sticks and stones to be biological. However, it’s clear that there are certain weapons that soldiers cannot carry, either because of their weight, functionality and operability, so it’s most common for them to carry long weapons and short weapons.
In this case, to carry a short weapon, both soldiers and police officers, they need a place to carry it without any inconvenience. The problem of carrying it in an unsuitable place, such as in the back of the body, holding the weapon with the belt and the hip, can cause a misfortune.
The case protects the weapon, and it’s easier to have it there so that at the moment it’s needed. It can be reached without any difficulty. In addition, it protects the user from the fact that the gun is activated by accident and can cause considerable injury.
The gun holster became very popular for the “western” films between the time of the 30s and 50s, however, it was very used at that time since it was normal for men to bring weapons, and not always having them in his hands, he had to find a way to carry it in the most comfortable way.
The first covers were made of leather, later, time and technology did their thing. Currently, leather is also used, but after the arrival of polyester, the two materials have been used, whether only leather, only polyester or a combination.
In the same way, the color of the cover will depend on who its and the task it will perform. For example, for a police officer, the color of the case should be the same color of his uniform (which occurs with the military) so that a dark color would suit him and in the case of the military, is the same or very similar to the uniform, more if it’s camouflaged.
