The Safariland Solis ALS Concealment OWB (Outside-the-Waistband) Holster is a simplistic-looking holster for gun owners, but it confidently falls into the universal category of “simple is best,” and the more hillbilly moniker of “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.” Regardless of how you view a tried-n-true platform like the Safariland Solis, they are expanding their existing offerings to now include the ever-popular Glock G17 and G19.
Safariland @ TFB:
With new fits for the G17 and G19, the Safariland Solis is now compatible with 11 variants of Glock handguns for concealed carry. The MSRP flutters anywhere from $82.50 – $92.50 depending on the precise configuration you choose for yourself. Some of the simple specs and a word from Safariland can be read below:
- ALS® secures firearm once holstered: simple straight-up draw once the release is deactivated
- Compatible with most Red Dot Sights
- Compact Light Compatible
- Two-piece reinforced holster body for increased strength
Jacksonville, Florida – Safariland®, a brand of The Safariland Group®, a leading global provider of safety products designed for the public safety, military, professional and outdoor markets and one of Cadre Holdings, Inc.’s (NYSE: CDRE) (“Cadre”) key brands, has announced new GLOCK fits for the Solis OWB holster.
In 2023, Safariland introduced the Solis holster to accommodate subcompact duty pistols with lights and optics. Now available for GLOCK 17 and 19 models, Solis offers law enforcement officials and civilians a new OWB carry option from the originators of holster retention.
“We continue to collaborate with firearm manufacturers to ensure a diverse range of OWB holster fits for the most effective tools for everyday carry,” said Eric Gasvoda, GM of Duty Gear for Safariland. “Solis is an ideal addition to our outside-the-waistband holster family, and we’re proud to provide new GLOCK options for the firearm and law enforcement community.”
Crafted from a durable and weather-resistant SafariSeven™ nylon blend, the Solis OWB holster offers rugged durability to protect firearms. Its open muzzle end design facilitates easy debris removal and accommodates threaded barrels, ensuring optimal functionality in various environments.
If you’re a Glock fanboy and are in need of another holster, this is a great candidate for running range drills with its open-top design or for carrying with a cover garment. Considering my home state of Minnesota has had two feet of snow dumped on us this week (why do I still live here?…), this would be a great option for OWB, concealed carry.
