Description

Vega Holster IR8 “Inside” Thermo‑Molded Polymer Holster

The Vega Holster IR8 is a low‑profile, thermo‑molded polymer holster designed for discreet inside‑the‑pants carry (IWB) of full‑size pistols such as Glock 17/22. Rubber‑coated polymer construction delivers long‑life durability, while a retention screw lets shooters fine‑tune draw resistance at the trigger‑guard.

Aim of the Product

Purpose‑built to keep a duty‑size pistol close to the body, hidden from view and firmly retained—yet instantly accessible under stress. Dual rubber belt straps with snap fasteners anchor the rig securely to belts up to 60 mm wide.

Audience

Concealed‑carry permit holders, plain‑clothes law‑enforcement, executive‑protection agents and competitive shooters needing a slim, adjustable holster for Glock 17/22.* *Versions for other pistols available on request.

Product Use

• Slip holster inside the waistband, aligning loops on your belt; snap both rubber straps closed.
• Adjust the retention screw until draw force suits your preference.
• Barrel‑sight guide prevents snagging; thermo‑molded body maintains shape for easy re‑holstering.
• Note: Spec sheet lists “OWB” use—Vega markets this model primarily for IWB, but the two‑loop design allows limited OWB belt‑loop carry if preferred.
