Abstract

A holster for an automatic hand weapon and retention system which secures the weapon at the weapon's ejection port and trigger guard against unintentional withdrawal yet is made of lightweight, durable and inexpensive materials is provided. The holster is formed from a piece of fabric of synthetic material which is folded on itself and stitched to form a cavity for receiving the weapon. A first dowel is secured in a first pocket positioned above the muzzle end of the ejection port of the weapon. A second dowel is secured in a second pocket positioned in the trigger guard of the weapon. The first and second dowels engage the ejection port and trigger guard, respectively, of the weapon to prevent the removal of the weapon by an opponent or accidentally during strenuous activity by the user. Also provided is a holster suitable for wearing against a leg which has at least one dowel secured in a pocket positioned above the muzzle end of the ejection port of a weapon. An elastic strap secures the weapon in the holster and urges the ejection port towards the dowel, yet allows the user to rapidly remove the weapon.
