Abstract:
A holster for a weapon includes a semi-rigid holster body with two sidewalls defining a cavity for receiving a handgun. The holster body has an attachment area for a holster clip to the holster body to secure the holster body to an article worn or carried by a user. The holster body is constructed of a thermoplastic and is constructed to friction-grip the weapon within the cavity. Each of the sidewalls having repeating structure for structural strengthening. When the weapon is absent from the cavity and a compressing force is applied against one or both of the closed sides of the holster body, the holster body is constructed to compress from side-to-side by at least 30% without fracturing, the open top being constructed to automatically return to an original uncompressed shape when the compressing force is removed such that the weapon can be received into the cavity for re-holstering.
