Raven Concealment Eidolon The Modular Holster

25692574103_792c05cd7b_kWhen I think of modular, the last thing that comes to mind is a holster, until the Eidolon. The Raven Concealment Eidolon might be the most modular holster invented.

We are not all shaped the same. Some of us have swimmers body’s, others of us look more like a muffin top, Grimace or any other number of portly figures. Not only do our bodies differ but our position of carry may change based on environment and clothing.

The Eidolon has more attachments than an Erector set so that it will fit every shape in just about every carry position. They do this by making this holster configurable with a wide assortment of positioning accessories. Check out this list of included items:

• One holster shell of your specification
• One pair of belt attachments of your choice
• One Tall Spacer for mounting the belt attachment below the trigger guard
• One 8-hole Extension Wing
• One 10-hole Extension Wing
• One Short Spacer for mounting the Extension Wing below the trigger guard, angled up toward the belt line.
• One set of Belt Claws
• One Holster Wedge for right or left-hand configurations
• All needed hardware and full instruction manualThe Holster

The Holster

Eidolon15__65923.1427773749.1280.1280The Eidolon’s core-shell is injection molded polymer. It has no rough edges like Kydex that need to be smoothed out. It is designed to accommodate an RMR and suppressor sights while still offering a full-length sweat guard. The sweat guard is something you truly appreciate if you have had any slide work done to increase surface tension. It also accommodates extended slide releases and takedown levers. Which is useful for extended controls, or running a LaserMax Guide Rod Laser. The open bottom allows for use with aftermarket extended or threaded barrels.The biggest advantage of the injection-molded method is in pistol retention. Instead of a Kydex system that creates additional tension on the entire gun retention is tightened at the trigger guard. Once you break free of the trigger guard retention, the remaining draws stroke is smooth as silk without the typical drag of Kydex. It’s like the difference between a clean breaking Geissele trigger and a mushy LC9 trigger.
