ALPS OutdoorZ has just unveiled the new Talon holster, an ambidextrous handgun holster meant to secure onto backpacks and daypacks of campers, hikers, hunters and anyone else who spends extended amounts of times in the backcountry and need to keep a pistol close at hand.
The Talon holster is sized to universally fit a wide number of semi-auto handguns and revolvers, and can easily be mounted to MOLLE or other types of webbing commonly found on bags and packs. Moreover, its mounting system which consists of a clinching magnetized strap also allows users to affix the holster to the hip straps or sternum straps on their field packs for easier access to their firearm on the trail. The Talon holster’s quick release magnetized strap is designed to do-away with the traditional hook and loop system found on many universal field holsters or other types of outdoor gear, as it can tend to be somewhat unreliable in specialized applications.
