“Shorty” Race Master Holster

The “Shorty” Race Master Holster is a limited additional model of the Race Master, which offers STI and other 1911 platform shooters an even more compact version of the Race Master.

The original design of the holster was a “Shorty” and earlier versions seen at the 2010 Shot and IWA Shows were of this model. Later, as we prepared the various gun inserts, it became apparent that the holster body would have to be lengthened a little to accommodate the larger trigger guard of guns such as the CZ SP01, the Glock, the Tanfoglio and others. So the design of the body was modified, making it 10mm longer.
However the first few hundred holster bodies were made in the “Shorty” version, and compatible inserts manufactured, to be used with a limited selection of gun types, which have a more compact trigger.

The “Shorty” is an excellent choice for those shooters who expect to use their holster only for an STI or similar. It has all the same features of the “full size” model, in a slightly more compact version.

Advantages of the “Shorty” model:
* A little more compact and lightweight than the “Full-Size” version
* Gun is seated a little lower, so the range of height adjustability is increased
* 10 Euro cheaper than the “Full-Size” version
* All the same features and functionality of the “Full-Size”

Disadvantages of the “Shorty” model:
* Cannot be used with all insert blocks

The following Insert Blocks are currently available for the “Shorty” Model:
* STI or SV Plastic
* SV Steel or Aluminum
* 1911 Steel Frame
* BUL M-5 (round trigger guard)
* SPS/BUL SAS
