Falco TalonGuard Holsters

Falco Holsters is launching three new leather/Kydex hybrid holsters featuring the new TalonGuard system. FALCO's new hybrid holsters combine premium Italian leather with a customized Kydex insert that fully covers the trigger guard on both sides. The A910 TalonGuard holster is made from Kydex and is fully enclosed by leather, while the A911 and the A911 L combine a Kydex with an exterior that is comprised of half leather and half Kydex.

According to FALCO Holsters Vice President of Sales and Marketing, Katarina Zacharová, "This design greatly enhances safety and passive retention while preserving the comfortable and quiet experience unique to leather. With TalonGuard, we offer the best of both worlds. By providing the renowned retention and safety of Kydex holsters, our customers enjoy peace of mind without sacrificing the everyday carry comfort of leather."

The new FALCO TalonGuard hybrid system built into these Inside the Waistband (IWB) holsters have a Kydex insert that fully encloses the trigger guard, as well as the weapon-mounted light on light-bearing models for better safety and improved retention compared to just leather. The open bottom allows for use with threaded barrels and easy maintenance, while the exterior leather surface provides a more comfortable carrying experience

The TalonGuard system fits over 2,400 handguns and 80 lights, and the stainless steel belt clip with matte black finish works with 1.5-inch and 2-inch wide belts. The leather on these holsters is pre-tanned Italian leather that is hand-molded, stitched, lacquered and customizable options are available for leather color, stitching, edge color and more.

There are three models in the TalonGuard lineup:

  • A910 TalonGuard Hybrid IWB Holster: Kydex insert surrounds the trigger guard with full leather exterior coverage, MSRP: $109.95
  • A911 TalonGuard Hybrid IWB Holster: Extended Kydex insert covers the trigger guard and front of the handgun, with half leather exterior coverage and two adjustable retention screws, MSRP: $109.95
  • A911 L TalonGuard Light Bearing Hybrid IWB Holster: Extended Kydex insert covers the trigger guard, light, and front of the handgun, with half leather exterior coverage, two adjustable retention screws, and offers compatibility with rail-mounted lights, MSRP: $119.95
