Aegis Calypto R: $135

The Aegis Calypto R is an appendix holster specifically designed for revolvers. After purchasing a S&W 19 Carry Comp, I found I needed to rethink the holster for maximum comfort specifically for revolvers. I trimmed down the holster as much as I possibly could to achieve this. I left just enough room for the clip and a Modwing or Darkwing. 

The holster has been very successful since it's release. It has been posted on forums, Reddit, and other platforms with praise. I make at least two a week and many customers own more than one now. This isn't to be boastful, this is the highest compliment I could be given. It is simple and comfortable appendix holster for a revolver. 

**Please know you can remove the reinforced mouth and/or the steel band and I will deduct the difference from the total price. You can also replace the cowhide reinforcement with kangaroo to keep it slim and keep the steel band. The steel band I use is thin but strong. It does not add thickness to the holster in a way that you would "feel". 

When you order, please specify if you want the front portion of the mouth above the cylinder or cut flush with the cylinder. 

Options: Exotic hides, Modwing or Darkwing, velro (client installed) and choice of clip. NO red dots.

Aegis Calypto 1: $85

The Aegis Calypto 1 has been a proven design that provides concealment with comfort for extended, daily use. From micro pistols to government 1911’s, they are used by military, law enforcement and civilians alike. I make them as slim as possible to increase comfort when sitting, bending down, etc.

Options:

Reinforced mouth: $10

Steel band: $5

Exotic trim and exotic full face

Client installed velcro: $2

Modwing or Darkwing: $15

Choice of clip. G Code, DCC cant adjustable, DCC height adjustable, Tough Clip

Aegis Calypto D L7: $160

I have quite a few clients who have been wanting a two clip appendix holster for a revolver. The other request was for an appendix holster with the clips further apart, with the focus on heavier firearms. I believe I have achieved both with the D L7. 

The holster design is a reverse clam shell design, much like my Ridgie (Rhodesian style) which allows me to keep the frame side of the holster very slim. In turn, it keeps the holster rigid and with a reinforced mouth, one-handed holstering is quite easy.  (Note: It cannot have a steel band ) 

It is comes with either DCC height adjustable or G Code clips. Either clip allows the user to adjust the height and the cant, forward or back, with ease. Especially with the additional mounting holes. (The number of holes may vary.)

Now, the answers to the questions most are asking themselves:

YES. This will work with standard optics and some that go past the ejection port. (No revolvers with optics.)

NO. This WILL NOT work with light bearing firearms.

Here are the options:

Modwing or Darkwing: $15

Velcro (client installed) $2

Cowhide color of choice.

Cowhide reinforcement color of choice

Full face exotic or just exotic trim

Shirt guard: Half or full for semiautos. Full or none for revolvers.

Open muzzle ONLY

Please know this is intended for revolvers with 2.5” barrels or longer or semiautos roughly Glock 19 in size or longer. However, that may vary depending on the gun design. Please inquire for more information.

Aegis Calypto 2: $150

The Aegis Calypto 2 offers a client a two clip appendix holster for those who prefer carrying heavier pistols or want to distribute the weight of their EDC.

This setup has been very successful for pistols with weapon lights and optics. From a Glock 43x with TLR7 Sub to a HK 45 Tactical with a TLR7 HLX, it works. 

The Aegis Calypto 2 comes with a reinforced mouth and steel band and clips of choice.

Options: Exotic hides, Modwing/Darkwing, velcro (client installed), light bearing, and most red dot sights.

*NOT available for revolvers. 

Aegis Calypto 3: $120

The Aegis Calypto 3 offers a snap loop appendix holster for those who do not care for kydex or metal clips. The snap loop allows for cant adjustment and it can be worn strong side as well. (Note: If equipped with a Modwing, it cannot be worn strong side or it could lock up the holster, interfering with the draw of the pistol.) The loop can also be "fixed" in various cants. 

Comes with a reinforced mouth and steel band.

As the loops is removeable, a kydex or metal clip can be placed on the wing, which will make it an Aegis Calypto 1 holster. Some have found that option very appealing. 

Options: Exotic hides, most red dot sights, kydex or DCC clip, velcro (client installed), and a Modwing/Darkwing.

*NOT available for revolvers. 

Aegis Calypto Monoblock: $135

Now offering split loops or solid loop for $145. 

The Aegis Calypto Monoblock system has been added due to the growing popularity of Discreet Carry Concept Monoblock clip. This holster works well pistols with optics and weapon mounted lights. It doesn't distribute the weight as well as the Aegis Calypto 2 but it is a noticeable difference from the Aegis Calypto 1. 

If the client prefers, the Monoblock could be set at a specific cant. 

It comes with a reinforced mouth and a steel band.

Options: Exotics, Modwing/Darkwing, velcro (client installed), most optics and light bearing pistols.

*NOT available for revolvers.
