Precision Fit for a Proven Sidearm: Beretta 96 Holsters
The Beretta 96 stands as a cornerstone of reliability and craftsmanship in full-size semi-automatic pistols.
Chambered in .40 S&W and built on the same proven frame as the 92 series, it delivers durability, accuracy, and balanced recoil management trusted by military, law enforcement, and civilian shooters alike.
Every Beretta 96 holster in this lineup is molded precisely to fit its iconic contours—ensuring stable retention, smooth draw, and long-lasting performance for concealed or open carry.
Everyday Comfort and Control: IWB Beretta 96 Holsters
An IWB Beretta 96 holster provides deep concealment without sacrificing accessibility. The design’s contour matches the pistol’s distinctive slide shape and squared trigger guard, keeping the firearm close to the body for discreet carry.
Adjustable cant and ride height allow users to set their preferred draw angle, maintaining ergonomic consistency with the Beretta’s natural point of aim.
Hybrid and polymer IWB configurations balance concealment and retention, allowing smooth reholstering and secure lock-up under stress. Breathable backers minimize irritation during extended wear, while the reinforced sweat guard shields both the firearm’s alloy frame and user from moisture.
The result is a dependable inside-the-waistband setup ideal for daily carry, concealed defense, or plainclothes duty.
Stability and Speed: OWB Paddle Beretta 96 Holsters
A Beretta 96 OWB paddle holster combines rapid deployment with secure retention for open carry and range use.
The paddle’s contoured surface anchors firmly against clothing or the waistband, maintaining consistent positioning through movement or training. Its wide footprint distributes weight evenly, reducing pressure on the belt line while providing a stable platform for the 96’s full-size frame.
Each holster’s molded geometry aligns precisely with the pistol’s open slide design and ambidextrous safety levers, preventing snagging during draws. The rigid polymer construction resists heat and wear, preserving fit and form over time. Ideal for range practice, duty transition drills, or tactical readiness, this configuration keeps the Beretta 96 secure while supporting a natural drawstroke.
Tactical Access and Mobility: Drop Leg Beretta 96 Holsters
For professionals requiring rapid access in field environments, the drop leg Beretta 96 holster offers unmatched functionality. Dual adjustable straps fasten securely around the thigh, maintaining position during dynamic motion. The holster’s vertical belt attachment allows customizable ride height, letting carriers find the optimal draw level while wearing gear or armor.
This configuration is favored in tactical, training, and law enforcement applications where movement and accessibility are critical. Reinforced retention hardware ensures the pistol stays stable even during sprinting or physical engagement, while its open muzzle design accommodates debris drainage and ease of cleaning.
The drop leg format complements the Beretta 96’s balance and long sight radius, supporting confident handling in both high-stress and precision environments.
Adaptive Storage: Hook & Loop Beretta 96 Holsters
A hook & loop Beretta 96 holster offers modular flexibility for unconventional carry positions. Designed for use in vehicles, bags, or tactical setups, it attaches to loop-compatible surfaces with reliable adhesion. The holster retains its structure even when mounted vertically or inverted, allowing quick access in off-body scenarios.
This adaptable configuration serves security professionals, drivers, and tactical operators who require non-traditional placement options without compromising firearm security. Despite its modularity, each holster maintains full trigger guard protection and adjustable retention to ensure safe, consistent draw performance.
Engineered Precision for the Beretta 96 Platform
Each Beretta 96 holster is shaped to match the pistol’s steel slide, full-length barrel, and reinforced locking block system. The holster’s contours accommodate the pistol’s forward rail (on later models) and open-slide design, ensuring perfect retention and friction-free draw.
Retention screws allow fine-tuning to match user preference, while reinforced edges preserve the holster’s integrity during repeated holstering cycles. The material construction—Boltaron or durable polymer—resists temperature and moisture, protecting the Beretta’s finish and mechanical precision.
The holsters also maintain compatibility with both standard and Brigadier slide variants, offering users consistent fit across configurations.
