N8 Tactical is known for making comfortable inside the waistband holsters for everyday carry. Now they are rolling out a new line of outside the waistband (OWB) holsters for a variety of defensive pistols.

Whether you’re carrying a SIG P365, S&W M&P9 Shield, Glock 19, or one of hundreds of other handguns, the polycarbonate pocket on the new Professional OWB holster is designed specifically for your firearm. The polycarbonate pocket is made specifically for each model of gun and is built from an incredibly durable material ensuring that your holster will last and last.

The leather backer on the N8 Tactical OWB holster offers both comfort and security. The backer is composed of two layers of cowhide leather offering the strength needed to keep your firearm secure in an OWB holster. The leather surface will not mar or scratch your firearm while providing a clean and smooth surface for a smooth draw. The durable pancake belt loops accept up to 1¾-inch belts and have soft rounded edges for additional comfort.

The Secure Twist Release Retention System on the Tactical OWB holster models ensures proper retention, while still allowing for a smooth, worry-free draw. The system features a small modification to the pocket that secures your firearm, while still being easily released with a minor twist of the wrist.

Matching the new OWB holster is the new N8 Tactical FLEX OWB Mag Carrier that combines function and comfort in a compact, easy to conceal platform. The magazine carrier has a comfort backer, strong polymer clip, and can secure a wide range of different magazines, from single-stack 1911s to double-stack compact handguns up to .45 caliber.

The Single or Dual FLEX OWB Mag Carrier comes with a two-layered, leather backer that provides full coverage of the carrier to maximize comfort and clear access to your magazine. The FLEX OWB Mag Carrier is designed to accommodate multiple magazine sizes and styles to change as you vary your carry gun choices, eliminating the need for all those extra mag carriers.
