Galco Triton 3.0 Holster

Galco Gunleather is now selling its Galco Triton 3.0 Kydex holsters to accommodate single-stack, 1911-pattern pistols with 3-inch barrels. 

The Galco Triton 3.0 is a modern concealment holster designed for concealed carry in mind and can be used in either the IWB or AIWB positions. As the 3.0 model, it’s the latest iteration of Galco’s previous Triton 2.0 models. This more recent version is not only designed to accommodate carry guns with slide-mounted red-dot optics (and their often taller back up iron sights), but it has also been tweaked to improve comfort and utility in the modern AIWB carry position. It does so by offering a lowered neutral cant for end users who are looking for a deeper riding position.

Galco includes two different types of tuckable clips with each Triton 3.0: the Galco UniClip and the Ultimate stealth clips. These offer extra versatility and configurability in concealment for the end user. UniClips are meant to go over the belt in a standard manner, while the Ultimate Stealth clips are just that: Stealthier belt clips that are designed to fit behind the belt and latch onto the trouser.
