Q. Will the Glock insert fit all Glock models?

Yes and no. Not trying to be evasive, but here’s the deal: The RM holster requires a very precise fit to the trigger guard of the gun. We have found that amongst the various Glock models, and sometimes even in the same model, with various generations of molds, there are slight variations in the trigger guard dimensions. Our only option was to keep the dimensions tight, to fit the smallest Glock trigger guard we could find. So if you find that your Glock does not slide smoothly into the holster, most likely you need to slightly adjust the Slide Lock of the holster to your Glock’s trigger guard. You can read up on how to do this in the Support sections – check out the video tutorials.

Q. Can I use the RM holster for both my Limited and Open STI Guns?

Yes. The RM holster grips the gun securely around the trigger guard, and no muzzle support is needed. So the length of the gun, whether it has a comp or not plays no part, and you can use this holster with your Limited and Open guns without adjustment or modification.

Q. I have two SV guns – one with a plastic frame, the other Steel. Can I use the same RM holster for both?

The problem here is that that Steel and Aluminum SV guns are machined with a slightly narrower trigger guard than the plastic frame, which is the same as the STI plastic. That is why we must offer a special insert for the SV Steel/Aluminum.
However, a smart solution is to slightly modify the trigger guard on your plastic SV, to make it a little narrower in the front, so that its dimensions then match that of the steel frame – and then you can use the very same holster for both guns.

Q. Will the CZ SP01 holster fit the CZ Tactical Sport?

Not out of the box, but it can be modified in seconds to fit perfectly. The TS trigger guard follows the same contour as that of the SP01, but is just a hair wider. Using a Dremel tool you can modify your SP01 Slide Lock to fit the Tactical Sport easily. Follow the Adjustment tutorial video clip, under the support section of this site. Note that once you make this modification, the holster will no longer fit the SP01 very well, and an SP01 gun will be a little loose.

Q. Does the RM holster work equally well with all gun types offered?

Almost. Most guns are held absolutely solid and cannot move at all in the holster, other than draw upwards of course. The exceptions are the rounded trigger guards, as in the 1911 steel frame, Para Ordanace and the BUL M-5. In these inserts, even though the Slide Lock tooth precisely fits the trigger guard, the gun can rotate a few degrees forward and backwards in the holster. This is because of the inner and outer radios of the trigger guard are the same, and we cannot prevent the gun slightly rotating.
It is still held considerably more motionless than other holsters, but just not as still as most gun types we have inserts for.

Q. Will the 1911 insert fit any 1911 gun? What about Para Ord?

We have tried it on several 1911 guns, including a Para, Colt and Springfield. The one we found it did not fit well was a Llama. For the rest, these trigger guard follow the same profile and should work well. But bear in mind that there are dozens of models and manufacturers of 1911 guns, so we cannot be totally sure.

Q. Will the Sig X5 model work for my 226 or 228 Sigs?

No. The X5 has a wider and thicker trigger guard and we have machined the insert to fit this, as it is the more commonly used model in IPSC and USPSA. It will not fit the 226 or 228.

Q. What other gun models do you plan to offer the RM for?

During the next few weeks we plan to make new inserts for the S&W M&P, the HK USP and possibly for the 686 L frame revolver too. Other guns will be added as needed.

The Race Master Holster offers almost unlimited adjustability. And, thanks to its rugged aluminum construction and large-thread screws, when you lock the holster in your chosen position, it stays put!

Unlike other holsters, the Race Master is designed to give you access to almost all the adjustment screws while you are wearing it on your IPSC belt. Without removing your belt, you can adjust the height of the gun and the distance from your body, and even unlock the ball-socket hinge and adjust any angle of the holster. This is a huge advantage in setting up your holster just right.

Checkout our video tutorials here.

At the very heart of the new Race Master Holster is a brand new innovative patent-pending locking system that offers a smooth clean release of the pistol and a solid grip on the gun when holstered.

Unlike other models which rely on a muzzle support to hold the gun steady, or short holsters which allow the gun to rock when holstered, the new Race Master holds the gun so steady, you cannot tell the pistol from the holster! And yet it draws upwards as smoothly as can be with almost no resistance at all.

The phenomenal locking is achieved by means of a unique sliding block, formed precisely around the front end of the trigger guard. This fitting is the reason for the gun’s incredible stability in the holster. As the gun is drawn, the block, which resides in an angled track, slides out to the side, smoothly releasing the trigger guard and allowing the gun to be drawn with only 6-8 mm (1/4”) of upward motion required to clear the holster.

Loosen or completely remove the four M4 round-cap screws which hold the two Belt-Hanger Retention Bars (1) in place, position the holster on your belt, and re-tighten the four screws. Do not
over-tighten!

If your shooting belt is much narrower than 1.5”, you may need to use a spacer to fill the gap. However this will not be necessary with most commonly available belts.
