RED HILL TACTICAL
Red Hill Tactical was formed in 2013 with the mindset of competition first. When searching for a competition-oriented holster became a struggle of compromises, we made our own.
As our products developed, we realized the low front scoop created a flex point, and with the help of sponsored shooters, we developed the first double-layered holsters in 2015. We knew reducing flex would allow a smooth, consistent release with minimal retention.
As we matured as a company, so did our products. In early 2016 we developed level 2 and light bearing holsters geared toward competition shooters. We worked to keep a smooth and fast release, the same as our competition holsters.
Around 2017 we started working on an inside-the-waistband design. We started with the premium model that is fabric wrapped, and then the standard model. We focused on a safe level of retention, yet wanted to keep it fast. We found a happy medium.
By 2018 we developed the Tight N Tuck line. This was designed with a higher level of retention for every day carry use. We greatly increased retention and made the holster blocking as tight as we could.
With over 150 sponsored shooters around the world competing in many types of events, we are able to torture test everything we make. Our products continue to develop and expand so we can be your one source for all holster needs.
