The Ultimate Guide to DME Holsters’ Outside the Waistband (OWB) Holsters

When it comes to outside the waistband holsters (OWB), DME Holsters’ Standard OWB Holster stands out from the competition. Offering complete customization to fit your specific needs, our holsters are designed with the user in mind. Whether you’re in law enforcement, military, or a firearm enthusiast, our OWB holsters provide unmatched versatility, security, and durability.

Customizable Features for Maximum Versatility

Our Standard OWB holsters are made from high-quality Kydex material, ensuring durability and longevity. The holsters are available in various colors and prints, allowing for a personalized look while maintaining functionality and reliability. DME Holsters’ products are compatible with a wide range of firearms, including popular handguns and specialized models, ensuring a precise fit for each firearm model.

Secure Fit and Retention Systems

Each DME Holster is custom-molded using advanced 3-D CAD software and 3-D printers, guaranteeing a snug and secure fit for your firearm, lights, and lasers. Our in-house manufacturing system ensures the highest quality standards and fit accuracy. The retention system further guarantees that your firearm stays in place until you need it, offering both Level I and Level II retention options. Level I retention does not affect draw speed, while Level II requires activation of a spring-loaded mechanical hood, which can slightly reduce draw speed but provides additional security.

Modular Mounting Systems

For firearm enthusiasts with multiple firearms, our holsters offer modular mounting systems such as the Blade-Tech Tech-Mount and the Safariland QLS system. These systems allow you to attach different holsters for different guns to a single platform easily. The platforms are ride height oriented:

  • Follow this link for the ultimate guide and attachments
  • Tek-Lok: The firearm rides with the trigger guard on the beltline.
  • Duty Drop: The firearm rides with the grip on the beltline. This option can include a thigh strap to keep everything in place, making it ideal for duty belts, battle belts, war belts, or your everyday carry (EDC) gun belt.
  • Thigh Rig: Allows the holster to ride just about anywhere on the thigh, providing ultimate flexibility.

With these options, ride height is generally not adjustable but is tailored to specific use cases for optimal performance.

Perfect for Tactical and Duty Use

Our holsters are perfect for duty belts, battle belts, and war belts, making them suitable for law enforcement and military personnel. The robust design and secure retention systems ensure your firearm is always ready and accessible. Additionally, the customizable features make our holsters suitable for everyday carry, providing the perfect balance of security and convenience.

Lifetime Warranty and Fit Guarantee

DME Holsters stands by the quality of our products with a lifetime warranty. We also guarantee a precise fit, provided the customer correctly fills out the form when ordering. For example, if you order a holster for a Glock 19 with a TLR1 light but have an M&P 2.0, the holster will not fit, and we cannot make adjustments for such discrepancies. All holsters are built to exact specifications based on customer input. Shop DMEHolsters.com Now! Or you can head directly over to our Standard OWB holster page
