The CQC Carbon-Fiber holsters are ideal for those who operate in a harsh environment or simply like the cutting edge appearance. All CQC Carbon-Fiber holsters are an open top speed scabbard design molded from a proprietary polymer and carbon-fiber composite material impervious to chemicals, humidity, and other harsh environmental elements. The outside of the holster features a carbon-fiber finish appliqué. This gives it a dynamic appearance and acts to deaden the typical sound of drawing from a polymer holster. An internal passive retention system is adjustable to allow the user to choose the appropriate retention for their specific requirements. he opening of the holster is slightly flared to facilitate reholstering, while the leading edge of the holster is cut down for a faster and more comfortable draw with full size duty pistols.
