It begins with a genuine commitment to modularity that comes in at an almost unbelievable price point. This is possible thanks to an incredibly simple structure. And if the price doesn&#8217;t convince you try this&#8211;they will let you test drive a holster for 30 days. If that weren&#8217;t enough, they guarantee all parts. And, my favorite, if you ever decide to change the gun you&#8217;re carrying, Alien Gear will trade out the Kydex shell.[one_half]<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_23825\" style=\"width: 410px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Alien-Gear-1.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"alien-gear-holsters\" title=\"Alien Gear CLoak Tuck 2.0 Holsters (Review)\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-23825\" title=\"Alien Gear CLoak Tuck 2.0 Holsters (Review)\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-23825\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Alien-Gear-1-400x266.jpg\" alt=\"Alien Gear\" width=\"400\" height=\"266\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Alien-Gear-1-400x266.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Alien-Gear-1-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Alien-Gear-1-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Alien-Gear-1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-23825\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The concept is simple, and growing in popularity.

A lot of holster companies have been moving away from a Kydex clam shell in favor of a half-shell, half something else. Leather is a popular choice, and Alien Gear makes a leather backing, too. This one is a combination of polymer and neoprene. It molds to the gun, proving a lot of friction to hold the gun in place, yet feel better on the skin than plain Kydex, and is waterproof, so sweat won&#8217;t soak through.<\/p>\n<p>[one_half]<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_23841\" style=\"width: 410px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Alien-Gear-17.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"alien-gear-holsters\" title=\"Alien Gear CLoak Tuck 2.0 Holsters (Review)\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-23841\" title=\"Alien Gear CLoak Tuck 2.0 Holsters (Review)\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-23841\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Alien-Gear-17-400x266.jpg\" alt=\"Alien Gear\" width=\"400\" height=\"266\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Alien-Gear-17-400x266.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Alien-Gear-17-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Alien-Gear-17-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Alien-Gear-17.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-23841\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Modular holsters for the 1911 and the GLOCK 19.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>[\/one_half]<\/p>\n<p>[one_half_last]<\/p>\n<p>The Kydex half-shells are bolted onto the neoprene backing with only four bolts.

It is important that the fabric move.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>[\/one_half_last]<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s a tangible benefit to Alien Gear&#8217;s design. I believe in only carrying one gun (or one type of gun) and making your modes of carry consistent with one type of holster that is carried in the same place, every time you carry. You may see a theme there. It is consistency. I may carry a full sized gun in the winter, and a compact in the spring and fall. With this one holster, I can get an extra shell or two. I could carry a GLOCK 41, 19, and even a 42&#8211;all from the same holster, just by buying additional half-shells. All of the guns would function in exactly the same fashion, and the holster would stay consistent, and it wouldn&#8217;t break the bank.[one_half]<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_23831\" style=\"width: 410px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Alien-Gear-7.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"alien-gear-holsters\" title=\"Alien Gear CLoak Tuck 2.0 Holsters (Review)\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-23831\" title=\"Alien Gear CLoak Tuck 2.0 Holsters (Review)\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-23831\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Alien-Gear-7-400x266.jpg\" alt=\"Alien Gear\" width=\"400\" height=\"266\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Alien-Gear-7-400x266.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Alien-Gear-7-150x99.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Alien-Gear-7-1024x681.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Alien-Gear-7.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-23831\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Get both hands involved in the draw to ensure that you don&#8217;t get caught up in the shirt tail.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>[\/one_half][one_half_last]<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_23833\" style=\"width: 410px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Alien-Gear-9.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"alien-gear-holsters\" title=\"Alien Gear CLoak Tuck 2.0 Holsters (Review)\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-23833\" title=\"Alien Gear CLoak Tuck 2.0 Holsters (Review)\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-23833\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Alien-Gear-9-400x266.jpg\" alt=\"The proximity to the body makes the draw more complicated, but is the price you pay for concealment. \" width=\"400\" height=\"266\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Alien-Gear-9-400x266.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Alien-Gear-9-150x99.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Alien-Gear-9-1024x681.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Alien-Gear-9.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-23833\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The proximity to the body makes the draw more complicated, but is the price you pay for concealment.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>[\/one_half_last]<\/p>\n<p>Some will balk at the idea of concealing a full sized 1911 IWB.
