Blackhawk A.R.C. IWB Holster for Glock 17/22/31 (Not Gen 5 .40) Urban Grey Ambi

The Blackhawk A.R.C. (Appendix Reversible Carry) IWB Holster for Glock 17/22/31 in urban grey represents a purpose-built inside-the-waistband carry solution designed for operators who demand versatility without compromising concealment or retention. Its ambidextrous configuration eliminates the need for separate left- and right-hand units, making it an efficient choice for agencies and serious users who rotate shooters or carry positions across multiple platforms.

The holster's injection-molded polymer construction balances durability with comfort—critical when wearing inside-the-waistband for extended duty or training cycles. The passive retention detent provides tactile feedback during draw while maintaining secure weapon positioning during dynamic movement. Two included belt clips with adjustable cant and ride height accommodate belt widths from 1.5 to 1.75 inches, enabling users to fine-tune appendix positioning for their body profile and draw preference. This modularity is essential for finding the carry angle that works across different body types and clothing profiles.

This holster suits patrol officers, armed civilians in constitutional carry jurisdictions, and range shooters who regularly train from concealment. Appendix carry—positioning the weapon near the navel—offers advantages in seated positions (vehicle duty, office work) and provides superior retention against strong-side compromise while maintaining accessibility during typical daily activities. The A.R.C.'s ambidextrous design makes it valuable for training environments where instructors work with students across skill and dominant-hand distributions.

Blackhawk's A.R.C. line competes in the mid-range IWB market against carriers that force users to buy separate units for different draw angles or hand dominance. The urban grey finish resists visible wear and maintains a professional appearance under concealment or in low-visibility environments. For users seeking a single, configurable IWB platform that accommodates Glock Gen 4 and earlier models in common defensive calibers, this holster delivers proven ergonomics without premium-tier pricing.
