Ruger Holsters Built for Precision, Retention, and Daily Carry
Wide Ruger Holster Coverage Across 60+ Models
Alien Gear offers holsters molded for over sixty Ruger handguns. From concealed carry pistols like the Ruger LCP MAX, LC9s, and Max-9, to larger frames such as the SR1911, Security-9, and Ruger-57, every holster is engineered for exact fit. Revolvers including the GP100, SP101, Redhawk, Super Redhawk, and compact LCR series are also supported, with shells shaped around the specific cylinder and barrel length. This model-specific design ensures retention that generic holsters cannot match.
Optic-Ready Ruger Holsters for Max-9 and Ruger-57
Modern Ruger pistols often ship optics-ready. Holsters cut for MRDS allow the Max-9 with red dot or Ruger-57 with suppressor-height sights to draw cleanly without drag or optic wear. By preserving clearance, these holsters deliver faster presentation and protect your investment in sights and red dots.
Concealment Advantages with IWB Ruger Holsters
Compact models such as the Ruger LCP, LC9s, and Security-9 conceal effectively in appendix or traditional IWB configurations. Adjustable ride height and cant reduce printing under clothing, while padded backers spread weight across the waistband for all-day comfort. For daily carry, a Ruger IWB holster balances discreet profile with consistent access.
OWB and Paddle Ruger Holsters for Range and Duty Use
For range training, open carry, or plainclothes security, OWB holsters provide stability and speed. Paddle Ruger holsters allow easy on/off transitions while maintaining positive retention on pistols such as the Ruger SR9, P95, or SR1911. Optional belt-lock features prevent shifting during drills or rapid movement.
Ruger Holsters for Revolvers – LCR, GP100, and Redhawk
Revolvers carry different demands than pistols. The LCR .38, GP100 .357, and Redhawk .44 Mag each require shells molded for cylinder girth and barrel length. Chest rigs and drop-leg Ruger holsters distribute weight evenly, making large-frame revolvers easier to manage in the field, whether for hunting or backcountry defense.
Light and Laser-Compatible Ruger Holsters
Many Ruger owners pair pistols with Viridian, Crimson Trace, or LaserMax attachments. Holsters molded for the Ruger LCP with Reactor R5 or LC9s with Crimson Trace LG-412 preserve trigger guard protection and retention. A holster not designed for a mounted light or laser risks unsafe fit, accidental activation, or blocked draw. Alien Gear’s dedicated shells eliminate that risk.
Ruger Holsters for Older P-Series Pistols
Even discontinued Ruger pistols like the P85, P89, P90, P94, and P95 remain supported. Each holster is molded to the frame and slide geometry of its specific model, extending carry options for classic Ruger owners.
Modular Systems: ShapeShift and Cloak Ruger Holsters
The ShapeShift Modular Holster System covers popular Ruger models such as the LCP, LC9s, Security-9, and Max-9. A single shell adapts across IWB, OWB, appendix, chest, or drop-leg platforms. For carriers who change environments, this modularity allows one Ruger holster to meet multiple missions without sacrificing retention or fit.
Why a Dedicated Ruger Holster Outperforms One-Size-Fits-All
Universal holsters often fail in three critical areas: retention, comfort, and safety. Small Ruger pistols shift inside oversized shells, revolvers press against holsters not molded for cylinders, and optics snag without clearance. Alien Gear Ruger holsters eliminate these compromises. Each model receives a shell molded for its frame, with adjustable retention screws, sweat guards, and ergonomic contours.
Ruger Holsters Engineered for Comfort and Reliability
Long carry sessions demand more than retention alone. Ruger holsters with padded, breathable backers prevent hot spots, distribute weight, and reduce fatigue when carrying heavier pistols like the SR1911 or GP100. Combined with adjustable ride height and cant, the holster adapts to body type, clothing, and mission without sacrificing access.
