Protos-M OWB Holster

The Protos-M OWB Holster from Black Arch Holsters delivers exceptional comfort, durability, and firearm protection for outside-the-waistband carry. Built around a 3/4 shell construction, this holster provides full trigger guard coverage and adjustable retention, ensuring your firearm stays secure and ready when you need it.

Designed specifically for OWB carry, the Protos-M offers a comfortable, close-to-body fit for superior stability and concealment under a jacket or loose clothing. Whether you're heading to the range or carrying throughout your daily routine, the Protos-M's lightweight, ergonomic design ensures all-day comfort while keeping your firearm easily accessible.

The Protos-M shell is also modular—allowing you to swap it seamlessly onto our Single Clip or Dual Clip Protos-M and Heritage backers for versatile IWB options, giving you flexibility without purchasing a completely new holster.

Key Features:

  • 3/4 Shell Design: Provides rigid protection for the trigger guard while reducing bulk for enhanced comfort.
  • Optimized for OWB Carry: Secure, close-to-body fit for stability and superior comfort.
  • Built-In Cant: Slight forward cant for an optimized draw angle, improving draw speed and natural firearm presentation.
  • Modular Flexibility: Shell can be placed on Black Arch’s Single Clip or Dual Clip Protos-M backers for IWB options.
  • Comfort-Focused Fit: Ergonomic, lightweight design for extended wear during daily carry or range use.
  • Exceptional Accessibility: OWB positioning allows for a natural, rapid draw every time.
  • Secure Retention: Precision-molded shell keeps your firearm securely in place with adjustable retention.
  • Durable Construction: Built with premium materials for long-lasting reliability and performance.
  • Concealment Ready: Low-profile OWB design works with jackets, untucked shirts, or loose clothing for discreet carry.
  • Versatile Carry Use: Perfect for range days, everyday carry, hiking, or open carry while working outdoors.
  • Sweat Guard: Protects your firearm while keeping it off your skin for added comfort during extended wear.

The Protos-M OWB Holster combines the durability and accessibility of outside-the-waistband carry with the sleek, low-profile design Black Arch Holsters is known for. Its modular 3/4 shell allows you to adapt to your preferred carry method while offering the stability and comfort needed for all-day wear. Whether you're at the range, on duty, or going about your daily routine, the Protos-M OWB keeps your firearm secure, accessible, and ready when it matters most.

Quality Product!

I’m always impressed whenever I order a holster from Black Arch! I love buying local and I appreciate how nice each holster is when it arrives. The fit and finish is awesome. It’s great that each one is stamped with the make and model of the gun. It’s a nice touch. If more of the holsters were light compatible, I’d by all of my holsters from here.

Thank you for the awesome feedback and for supporting local—we really appreciate it! We’re glad the fit, finish, and stamped details on your holsters stand out. We hear you on light-bearing compatibility and continue working to expand options so more of our gear can fit your exact setup. Thanks again for your trust and support!

Almost perfect

I’m still gonna give a five star review because of the quality, but lacks One thing. It does not accommodate a. Light.. this hs become one of my favorite holsters.. make it compatible with optic and a light, hands down it would be second to none..

Thank you for the great review! We’re glad to hear the holster has quickly become one of your favorites. We appreciate the feedback on light-bearing options—our team is always working on new designs, and input like this helps guide future development. We’re thrilled the quality and fit stood out for you, and we’re grateful for your support!

Holster

Little slow getting it but was worth it. Fits and looks good also like the “click” when you put it away — solid

Thanks for the feedback! We’re glad to hear the holster was worth the wait. That secure “click” is one of the best parts—it lets you know your firearm is locked in safe and ready. Happy to hear the fit and look hit the mark too. We appreciate your support!

Protos M IWB Single

Perfect fit for my Bul Armory Axe Hatchet C with a Holosun 507C optic. I was on the fence about trying another kydex holster when I came across Black Arch. This is an extremely high quality holster that I am very satisfied with. One will not be disappointed for the fit and finish is the best I have used to date.

Thanks for the 5-star review! We’re thrilled the Protos M’s fit and finish impressed you. Enjoy the comfort and confidence, and thanks for choosing Black Arch!
