| M-1911 Holsters : PowerSpeed |
A very interesting holster, invented by Peter Spielberger and made of synthetic material (i.e. plastic) by a firm named PowerSpeed Trading Ltd.. Outside the European Community, the marketing and manufacturing rights for this holster are held by HogueThe holster features a very ingenious retention device. In the holster body, right in the gun's trigger guard, there is a protruding safety lever. As the shooter's hand grabs the gun, his thumb pushes down on the "Safety Wedge" releasing the safety bolt and allowing the gun to be pushed forward to the shooting position. Additionally, the holster can be easily converted from right-hand to left-hand use, by reversing its components. See the pictures below.
This is the safety wedge, which when pushed downwards releases the pistol.
These are the parts that make this holster.
The company is also producing (in association with others), some duty holsters, shown below:


These holsters are produced in association with Sickinger (and Austrian holster maker), Gould & Goodrich and Hogue.
