M-1911 Holsters : Hellweg

Hellweg are another manufacturer offering holsters for your M-1911. The following models are shown in their catalog and web site:

K-SERIES TACTICAL HOLSTER Model # KST

The new Hellweg tactical holster does the job of at least three regular holsters. Their patented adjustment system allows you to wear your holster on the strong side for tactical exercises, or with one turn of a screw to angle the holster for concealment behind your hip. The same holster can be repositioned to cross-draw when you are working surveilence assignments from a car. Best of all, this Kydex belt holster won't give away your position when you draw your pistol because it is lined with their synthetic Roo Skin for a quiet presentation. When the mission requires a raid vest you can still draw your pistol because there is just enough clearence between the belt and the holster. Available for the Colt Government Model and other 1911 clones. NOTE: This holster is available with backplates that have slots to fit either a 1 1/2 inch belt or 1 3/4 inch belt. Additional backplates including our new IDPA approved concealment backplate are available for $10. At this time we do not offer a paddle backplate for this holster.


K-SERIES TACTICAL-C HOLSTER Model # KSTC

Similar to the model above, but with a different swivel plate. Just like the standard belt plate the Concealment Swivel Belt Plate (CSBP) allows you to adjust the holster body for angle and height. If you are short waisted the Concealment Swivel Belt Plate gives you more of an adjustment for drop than the standard Tactical Belt Plate. Their K-Series holsters are a modular design and you can buy additional belt plates for different size belts or switch the belt plate, depending on your mission. They currently make both belt plates to fit our standard 1 ½-inch Dress Gun Belt or they offer belt plates to fit 1 ¾-inch belts. You can order any of the K-Series Holsters with the Concealment Swivel Belt Plate in place of the standard Tactical Belt Plate for the same price. And if you want to shoot in IDPA matches, the K-Series Tactical-C holster is approved for IDPA competition.


K-SERIES SWAT HOLSTER Model # KSS

When you have to get down and roll in the dirt your pistol needs all of the protection it can get. The K-Series SWAT Holster gives your pistol an extra measure of insurance against the elements as it covers the top of the gun over the ejection port. The K-Series SWAT Holster is adjustable for angle and elevation so you can adjust to fit your body and the gear you are wearing. It has the same modular ability as the other K-Series so you can interchange the belt plate depending on your mission. If you need more drop and the pistol in closer to your side you can interchange the standard Tactical Belt Plate with the Concealment Swivel Belt Plate.


K-SERIES LIMITED HOLSTER Model # KSL

This is the IPSC/USPSA holster of Hellweg (cannot be used in IDPA though). It is low cut in the front, allowing the fastest possible draw. Like other K-Series holsters you can adjust this holster to fit you. With one turn of a screw the patented adjustment system allows you to adjust the holster body for angle and elevation.


HELLWEG BELT SLIDE Model # BSH

Made of hides of Royal Cordovan and Tuxedo Black leather these are one of the best belt slides available.


PADDLE SPEED HOLSTER Model # PSH

The PSH uses a hardened steel shank to lock up to the steel inner lining of the holster body so the joint won't fatigue. On the other end of the steel shank is a spring steel plate. The paddle is covered with rough out suede leather and can be shaped to conform to your hip for comfort. The combination of the steel shank and suede leather produces a paddle that grabs your belt and pants so that when you draw the pistol, the holster stays on your waist. What is more important for those who must carry concealed, the steel shank pulls the gun and holster tight into the body.


THUN-DUR™ Model # TDH

This holster is supposed to be the best blend of speed, concealability and comfort that I have found in a belt holster. The secret lies in the position of the holster on the belt and the construction of the holster body. By placing the holster high and behind the hip you take advantage of your body to hide the pistol in most situations. This holster is made of premium cowhide. The angle and cut of the new Hellweg Thun-Dur™ was designed to give you a smooth, fast draw from behind the hip with the Colt Commander, Colt Officer's ACP and most Glock pistols. You can wear this holster on your side, but with most models it actually draws slower from that position. For Colt 1911 lovers who prefer to carry and shoot a full-sized pistol, they have angled that model more vertically so you don't have to bend your wrist on the draw. The Government Model Thun-Dur ™ draws faster on the side of the hip, yet in most cases under the appropriate clothing it conceals very well. This holster is guaranteed for life.


INSIDER™ holster Model #INH

This holster is made of Roo Skin™, their synthetic laminate and available in Ebony color. They have models currently available for the Colt Government, Commander, Officer's ACP models and all 1911 type pistols. Roo Skin™ was developed for a military contract and it has a wider temperature range than any other synthetic laminate on the market. A Roo Skin holster will hold its shape and your gun in the burning desert or the artic cold and you will always have a fast, smooth draw from it.


Covert Thun-Dur™ holster Model #CVT

This holster is made of Thun-Dur™ holster out of the expensive black suede/suede Roo Skin™ to give you a holster that will not reflect light and one that will draw quickly. This is a limited production holster for Glocks and Colt 1911 type pistols.


INTERNATIONAL SPEED HOLSTER Model # ISH

The ISH is a limited edition holster built for the hand guns that are the most popular in IPSC competition, the Colt 1911 type pistols, including the high capacity Para-Ordnance, STI and SVI pistols.


COMPETITION SPEED HOLSTER Model # CSH

The patented Competition Speed Holster (CSH) features a steel lined belt loop which moves the body of the holster out a bit. The belt loop is slotted and allows you to raise or lower the holster body to the height that is right for you. Another designinnovation is the use of a friction washer that allows you to adjust the angle of the holster body. The angle and elevationare adjusted with one Allen wrench which comes with the holster.

Of course, they also produce several mag pouches, belts etc.
