A good kydex holster lasts for years. A little care keeps it that way. Here's what we tell our customers.
Clean It
- Rinse with warm water and mild dish soap.
- Use a soft brush for dirt and lint.
- Let it air dry. No heat guns, no dryers.
Check the Screws
Screws can back out over time. Check them every month or so. Snug, not cranked down. A drop of blue thread locker helps.
Set the Retention
Most of our holsters have a retention screw. Tighter means more grip on the gun. Looser means a smoother draw.
- Unload the gun first. Always.
- Turn the screw a quarter turn at a time.
- Test: the gun should click in and stay put when you turn the holster upside down.
Watch for Wear
Look for cracks, loose clips, or a gun that rattles. Wear lines on your finish are normal with kydex. Damage to the holster isn't, and our limited lifetime warranty has you covered.
Don't Do This
- Leave it on a hot dashboard.
- Use harsh solvents on the shell.
- Holster a gun with your finger near the trigger.
