Falco Holsters is adding to its hybrid carbon-fiber holster collection with two new models, the CX92 and CXL92 Hybrid Carbon Fiber OWB Holsters. Building on the success of the original C908 and C908 L Hybrid OWB Holsters, the new models have a blend of Italian leather for comfort paired with a genuine carbon-fiber shell. This carbon-fiber design is three times more durable than Kydex, offering steel-like strength at a fraction of the weight. The result is a light, extra-thin and strong solution for outside-the-waistband (OWB) carry.

"After the successful launch of our carbon-fiber and hybrid-carbon-fiber holsters, we clearly saw that our customers had been seeking innovative, high-performing gear for a long time," said Robert Kováč, CEO of Falco Holsters. "We are proud to have delivered on that need. Thanks to the overwhelmingly positive reviews and strong demand, it was only natural to complete our portfolio with these two new carbon-hybrid holsters. They combine the craftsmanship our brand is known for with the most advanced materials available today, giving our customers both style and performance in one package."

CX92: Hybrid-Carbon-Fiber OWB Holster

Designed for OWB carry at the 3- to 4-o’clock position, it delivers retention, breathability and long-lasting durability. The open-top design ensures a seamless draw, while the open-bottom construction accommodates threaded barrels. The CX92 offers multiple customization options, allowing for compatibility with red-dot sights as well as have an adjustable cant, optional sweat guard, different belt loop widths and select your preferred leather backer color.

MSRP: $199.95

CXL92: Hybrid-Carbon-Fiber OWB Holster for Gun With Light

The CXL92 builds on the same foundation as the CX92 but is crafted to fit a wide variety of handguns equipped with tactical lights. This model maintains the carbon fiber and Italian leather construction while accommodating the additional bulk of light-bearing pistols without compromising on retention or comfort. Like the CX92, it features an open-top, open-bottom design and offers the same customization options, making it a good choice for shooters who require both illumination and performance from their holster.

MSRP: $199.95

Both the CX92 and CXL92 are available now at falcoholsters.com and can be customized to fit more than 2,400 handgun models and over 100 different lights.

We hear you (pun intended)! This year, we are reporting manufacturer’s sound-reduction rating where available. Now, not every manufacturer makes that information publicly available, so you’ll see a fair number of “N/As” where no decibel-reduction numbers were provided, but rest assured that, despite what you might think, the noise-reduction rating is one of the least important factors when choosing a new suppressor (more on that in a future article).
