Description:

FIELD OF INVENTION

[0001] The invention relates to safety apparatus for retaining and protecting a hand gun(s) in a concealed apron gun holster.

BACKGROUND

[0002] In the interest of safety and security a number of techniques have been developed to assure that a hand gun is retained in a holster and concealed until such time as the user wishes to utilize the gun.

[0003] Many holsters and harnesses strive for ready accessibility of the weapon. Unfortunately, they often sacrifice comfort, the ability to conceal and ready accessibility, especially for women with the garments of female attire.

[0004] It would be greatly advantageous to provide the comfort over a prolonged period of time, concealment and accessibility, for either right, left-handed or ambidextrous users of a pistol(s) in an apron gun holster.

SUMMARY

[0005] It is, therefore, an objective of the present invention to provide an improved holster capable of full concealment beneath the waistline at the thigh.

[0006] It is another objective to provide an improved holster which does not compromise between accessibility and full-concealment, permitting instant accessibility to facilitate a quick-draw.

[0007] Still another objective is to provide an improved fully-concealed holster that can be worn with a gun both comfortably and securely over a prolonged period of time.

[0008] It is yet another objective to provide an improved fully-concealed holster that can be utilized with equal effectiveness by right-handed, left-handed or ambidextrous users.

[0009] In accordance with the above objectives the gun(s) sits in left or right pockets inwardly from a panel generally conforming to the curve of the body at the thigh.

[0010] These and other objectives of the invention will be more readily understood upon study of the drawings.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0011] FIG. 1 illustrates the gun pockets of the inside panel of the Apron Gun Holster.

[0012] FIG. 2 illustrates the front panel of the Apron Gun Holster.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0013] FIG. 1 is a rear perspective view of the fully concealed Apron Gun Holster which is suitable for right, left-handed or ambidextrous users. The gun pockets are designed to securely hold the pistol(s), yet provide comfort against the body. Despite full concealment, the pistol remains readily accessible and can be drawn instantly and covertly so as not to call attention to the draw.

[0014] FIG. 2 is the front of the Apron Gun Holster wherein utility pockets are available for extra gun magazines, bullets, and non-related items such as a cell phone, pens, or whatever the need may be (for store owners, for example, pricing guns), etc.

[0015] Referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the apron of this invention is constructed of two rectangular panels of 60 lb. denim fabric and a waistband with 36'' ties.

[0016] Referring to FIG. 1, the gun pockets are sewn to the inside panel and are constructed of Peltex 70 fabric stabilizer which is ultra firm, smooth and provides firm support for the pistol.
