Concealable Holster for a Firearm

Abstract

The present invention is a concealable holster for a handgun which encircles the mid-torso of the wearer, for the purpose of supporting and stabilizing a handgun, while the wearer is engaged in vigorous physical activities such as running, thereby reducing movement of the firearm independent of the wearer's body allowing the wearer to focus on the activity without the distraction of the independent movement of the handgun. The handgun within an encasement with a clip attachment is inserted onto the belt; a pad is attached to the interior side of the belt and positioned behind the firearm encasement. The unattached top and bottom portions of the belt's plane and pad's plane, which are aligned, create a sleeve which precludes movement of the firearm independent of the wearer's body.
