The Safariland Species brings battlefield-proven materials to civilian concealed carry without the bulk. Built from SafariLaminate, a durable thermal-molded polymer, this holster pairs a minimalist design with the kind of retention engineering that comes from decades of professional use. The suede-lined interior does double duty: it protects your pistol's finish from wear while providing a secure hold that's tighter than you'd expect from something this thin.
Fitting the Glock 43 and 43X, the Species is precision-molded to work best with subcompact 9mm pistols built for discreet carry. The integrated passive trigger guard retention keeps your gun locked in place without external levers or buttons. A tension adjustment screw lets you personalize how tight the holster grips your firearm, so whether you prefer a firm lock or lighter touch, the Species adapts to your preference. An Allen wrench fits into a recessed slot that won't snag on your pants, making adjustments easy without any fumbling.
The Species works equally well for appendix carry, strongside carry, or anywhere else around your waistline. The belt clip adjusts both vertically and in cant angle, so you can fine-tune ride height and draw angle for your body type and clothing. It's optic-compatible with popular micro red dots like the Holosun 407K/507K, Romeo Zero, Shield RMS, and Swampfox Sentinel. The clip accommodates belts up to 1.5 inches wide.
Safariland designed this with appendix carry in mind, but the minimalist profile and adjustable mounting system make it genuinely comfortable for multiple carry positions. Unlike some holsters that feel oversized when carried off-side, the Species stays out of your way whether you're sitting, driving, or standing all day. It avoids printing effectively under light clothing, and the suede lining keeps everything quiet during the draw and reholster.
Yes, the Species is precision-molded specifically for the Glock 43. It provides a snug fit that works right out of the box. The adjustable retention screw allows you to fine-tune the hold if needed, but the holster is designed to function immediately without any alterations.
Absolutely. The minimalist design was engineered with appendix carry in mind, though the adjustable belt clip and cant angles make it just as comfortable for strongside or other carry positions. The low profile and thin construction minimize printing regardless of carry location.
Yes. The Species is cut for popular micro red dots like the Holosun 407K/507K, Romeo Zero, Shield RMS/RMS-C, Swampfox Sentinel, and others with similar footprints. The optic cut doesn't compromise retention or draw speed.
The suede interior protects your pistol's finish from wear during draws and reholstering, which is especially important if you carry with expensive sights or a well-finished gun. It also provides slightly more friction than standard plastic, creating a snug hold despite the minimal exterior design. Bonus: it makes for a quiet draw.
