Safariland Model 27 Inside the Pant Holster for Pistols

The Safariland Model 27 Inside the Pant Holster for Pistols is a time-tested concealed carry solution purpose-built for plainclothes officers, detectives, and armed civilians who require a secure, discreet carry method. Since its introduction, the Model 27 has become an industry standard for inside-the-waistband (IWB) carry, trusted by law enforcement agencies nationwide for off-duty and undercover operations. This holster is engineered for those who prioritize accessibility and concealability without sacrificing retention or safety—ideal for shooters operating in environments where tactical gear visibility is a liability.

Constructed from premium Safariland SafariSeven laminate—a durable, molded thermoplastic composite—the Model 27 delivers consistent retention and weapon security while maintaining a low-profile footprint. The molded design ensures a precise fit for specified pistol models, preventing unwanted movement during seated, prone, or dynamic activities. The holster's inside-the-pant configuration positions the firearm directly against the body, protected by the waistband and concealing garment, while the open-top design allows for rapid weapon access. Weighing just 0.37 pounds, this holster adds minimal bulk, making it suitable for sustained wear under business attire, athletic wear, or layered clothing without printing or excessive discomfort.

Law enforcement professionals operating plainclothes assignments, bail bondsmen, security personnel, and licensed concealed carry permit holders benefit most from the Model 27's balance of accessibility and discretion. The holster is designed for strong-side or appendix carry positioning and accommodates standard pistols with typical grip dimensions—verify your specific firearm model against Safariland's compatibility chart before purchase. Installation requires a sturdy belt (minimum 1.5 inches recommended) and may require adjustment during break-in as the molded polymer settles. This holster is not suitable for duty rigs with additional gear attachments but excels in minimalist carry systems where concealability is paramount.
