20 Species® IWB Holster for Pistol with Red Dot Optic (RDO)
The Safariland Species is a minimalist inside-the-waistband holster for concealed carry. Its slim design reduces bulk in key areas and is made for wear close to the body, including appendix-style carry. The retention tension can be adjusted, and the belt clip can be rotated and adjusted in height. The holster is also compatible with red-dot optics (RDO/RDS).
The Species® IWB holster is an inside-the-waistband design for concealed carry; the construction supports a secure fit and practical everyday access.
A new species of IWB holsters. A minimalist design offers a smaller package versus other IWB holsters. The enhanced material selection and design integration brings Safariland quality materials into this new species of IWB holsters. Dual functionality and tension adjustment allow users to personalize the holster fit, feel, and draw.
The Species is optic-compatible and works with Romeo Zero, RMR CC, Shield RMS, Shield RMS-C, Swampfox Sentinel, Hex Wasp, Holosun 407K, Holosun 507K, J-Point, Crimson Trace 1550 or similar optics.
Safariland began in 1964 in a garage in Sierra Madre, California: Neale Perkins built a holster at his father's request and named the company after the African safaris they had enjoyed together. The garage workshop grew into a brand that develops holsters, gear and protective equipment for duty and operational use. The company's guiding idea is "Together, We Save Lives"; Safariland names innovation, performance, excellence and legacy as its values.

The integrated passive trigger guard retention provides a secure feel during the draw and reholstering. An audible click can be felt and heard when the firearm is properly seated.
