Firearm holster

Abstract

A firearm holster has an outer wall, extending between a muzzle end and a breech end, defining a cavity configured to receive a firearm. A magnet and/or magnet assembly may be included, wherein the magnet is at least partly in the cavity at the muzzle end. The magnet assembly is coupled to the muzzle end and includes a magnet housing coupled to the outer wall and connected to the magnet. The holster may include a protruding wedge on a side panel of the outer wall, wherein the protruding wedge comprises a surface formed at an angle from the longitudinal holster axis. The wedge presses against a user's body to help alleviate the holster sagging. The holster may also have a spacer assembly, a portion of which can be configured to press against a user's body to achieve a desired resting angle of the holster.

         2 . The holster of  claim 1 , wherein the magnet housing comprises a housing coupling aperture, and the magnet comprises a magnet coupling aperture, wherein the housing coupling aperture and the magnet coupling aperture are disposed along a common axis, wherein the magnet assembly further comprises a fastener coupling the magnet housing and the magnet along the common axis. 
     
     
         3 . The holster of  claim 1 , wherein the magnet housing is disposed at least partially within the holster cavity between a first side panel and a second side panel of the outer wall. 
     
     
         4 . The holster of  claim 1 , wherein the magnet assembly further comprises a stabilizer rod coupled to at least one of the magnet housing and the magnet, wherein the stabilizer rod is positioned at least partially in the holster cavity and is configured to be disposed at least partially within the bore of the firearm when the firearm is positioned in the holster cavity. 
     
     
         5 . The holster of  claim 4 , wherein the stabilizer rod comprises a coupling void disposed along the common axis configured to receive the fastener therein, wherein the fastener couples the stabilizer rod to the at least one of the magnet housing and the magnet along the common axis. 
     
     
         6 . The holster of  claim 1 , wherein the magnet housing comprises a magnet recess, and the magnet is positioned at least partially within the magnet recess, wherein the magnet recess is disposed along the common axis. 
     
     
         7 . The holster of  claim 1 , wherein the muzzle end of the outer wall comprises a muzzle-end coupling device, and the magnet housing comprises a housing coupling device coupled to the muzzle-end coupling device. 
     
     
         8 . The holster of  claim 7 , wherein the muzzle-end coupling device comprises a wall coupling aperture disposed through the outer wall, and wherein the housing coupling device comprises a housing coupling stud protruding from a surface of the magnet housing, wherein the wall coupling aperture of the outer wall is configured to receive the housing coupling stud to couple the magnet housing to the outer wall. 
     
     
         9 . A holster, comprising:
 an outer wall defining a holster cavity configured to receive a firearm, wherein the outer wall has a muzzle end configured to house a muzzle of the firearm; and   a magnet directly coupled to the muzzle end,   wherein the magnet is configured to be in magnetic communication with a crown of the muzzle of the firearm when the firearm is positioned in the holster cavity.   
     
     
         10 . The holster of  claim 9 , wherein the magnet comprises a magnet coupling aperture configured to receive a fastener therein. 
     
     
         11 . The holster of  claim 9 , further comprising a stabilizer rod coupled to the magnet, wherein the stabilizer rod is positioned at least partially in the holster cavity and is configured to be at least partially disposed within the bore of the firearm when the firearm is positioned in the holster cavity. 
     
     
         12 . The holster of  claim 11 , wherein the magnet comprises a magnet coupling aperture spanning along an axis configured to receive a fastener therein, and wherein the stabilizer rod spans along the axis. 
     
     
         13 . The holster of  claim 12 , wherein the stabilizer rod comprises a coupling void disposed along the axis configured to receive the fastener therein, wherein the fastener couples the stabilizer rod to the magnet. 
     
     
         14 . The holster of  claim 9 , wherein the magnet comprises a magnet inner surface configured to touch the crown of the muzzle of the firearm when the firearm is positioned in the holster cavity. 
     
     
         15 . The holster of  claim 9 , wherein the muzzle end of the outer wall comprises a muzzle-end coupling device, and the magnet comprises a magnet coupling device coupled to the muzzle-end coupling device. 
     
     
         16 . The holster of  claim 15 , wherein the muzzle-end coupling device comprises a wall coupling aperture disposed through the outer wall, and wherein the magnet coupling device comprises a magnet coupling stud protruding from a surface of the magnet, wherein the wall coupling aperture of the outer wall is configured to receive the magnet coupling stud to couple the magnet to the outer wall. 
     
     
         17 . The holster of  claim 11 , wherein the stabilizer rod comprises at least one rifling edge that is complementary to rifling of the firearm to be disposed in the holster cavity. 
     
     
         18 . A holster, comprising:
 an outer wall defining a holster cavity configured to receive a firearm, wherein the outer wall comprises a first side panel and a second side panel opposite the first side panel, wherein the holster cavity is configured to receive the firearm along a longitudinal holster axis, and wherein at least one of the first side panel or the second side panel comprises a protruding wedge, wherein the protruding wedge comprises a surface spanning along a wedge axis that is formed at an angle of between 5 and 15 degrees between the longitudinal holster axis and the wedge axis; and   a plurality of outer belt clips coupled to the at least one of the first side panel or the second side panel, such that the protruding wedge is disposed between two of the plurality of outer belt clips.   
     
     
         19 . The holster of  claim 18 , wherein the wedge is coupled to or integrally formed with the at least one of the first side panel or the second side panel.
