The Most Overlooked Piece of Gear in Your Concealed Carry Setup

Most concealed carriers spend a lot of time choosing the right handgun — and that’s a smart place to start. But once the firearm is selected, what happens next?

Too often, the holster becomes an afterthought.

Many folks go for the cheapest, easiest, or fastest-shipping option, thinking it’ll be “good enough” for now. But here’s the truth: your holster is just as critical to your safety and success as the firearm itself.

Let’s talk about why the right holster matters — and how to avoid the biggest mistake new carriers make.

A Holster Isn’t Just a Holder — It’s Part of Your Defensive Setup

A holster that isn’t built for your needs can lead to:

  • Weak retention or an unstable fit
  • Slower, less confident draws
  • Discomfort during daily wear
  • Poor concealment or print-through
  • Incompatibility with optics, lights, or lasers

These aren’t just minor annoyances — they can compromise your ability to defend yourself effectively.

What Makes a Great Holster? It’s All About Fit, Function, and Flexibility.

At 1791 Gunleather, we design holsters that check every box — because we believe your carry setup should work with you, not against you.

Here’s what sets ours apart:
