Black Trident Quasimodo Holster

This holster is the go-to solution for handgun purists. The Black Trident Quasimodo Holster is an IWB (inside the waistband) holster optimized for minimal bulk and comfort, allowing you to conceal your weapon under clothing. The holster is particularly notable for its "hump" on the back of the holster and its asymmetrical shape that minimizes contours. The Quasimodo's integrated concealment wedge (pun intended) ensures maximum concealment and comfort when used in the appendix carry style.

The Concealment Wing presses against the inside of the waistband/belt, bringing the grip closer to the body. The result: less print on clothing.
The combination of maximum comfort and specialized functionality makes this holster your perfect everyday companion. Various mounting points allow you to attach a variety of mounts, tailored to your intended use or your clothing.

Viking vs. Quasimodo

The Quasimodo holster is the specialist for concealed carry, designed for users of compact or subcompact pistols. It's packed with carefully thought-out, time-tested, integrated features. Integrated means they're fixed and cannot be changed or customized. (Therefore, the Quasimodo holster isn't available for all light modules.)
If you don't want to miss out on individuality and optionality, and also want to carry standard-sized weapons with larger light modules inside the waistband, then we recommend our IWB generalist: the Black Trident VIKING HOLSTER

FAQs about the Quasimodo IWB Holster

Why is the Quasimodo not available for my weapon/laser light module?

We only sell tested weapon-laser-light combinations that make sense. This holster is for IWB purists who prioritize inconspicuousness. The smaller the weapon and laser light module, the better. There are no custom-made holsters for the Quasimodo. Sorry.

What mounting does Black Trident recommend for the Quasimodo holster?

There's no single "best mounting option." It all depends on your intended use. We're big fans of UltiTuck/UltiClip, as this type of mount can be hidden under your belt or even works without it. But that doesn't mean the other mounts are "bad." Your outfit and mission will determine it.

Is the Black Trident Quasimodo holster compatible with red dot optics?

Yes and no, the Black Trident Quasimodo IWB holster is compatible with almost all red dot optics available on the market. Even optics like the Trijicon SRO (which protrudes further than the standard optic cut). BUT

Is the Black Trident Quasimodo pistol holster compatible with compensators or threaded barrels?

Yes. The Quasimodo pistol holster features an open-muzzle design that accommodates accessories longer than the weapon itself. The holster is manufactured to your chosen length.

Which light modules are recommended for IWB Concealed Carry?

With inside-the-waistband carry, less is more. Remember: The holstered pistol is carried between your pants and your body. Therefore, opt for small light modules that have a small size ratio in terms of trigger guard width and beam width. The Streamlight TLR7 / TLR8 (available HERE) or Streamlight TLR7 sub (available HERE) are good choices for concealed carry.

Can the Quasimodo pistol holster be used with gloves?

Yes! We made sure during the design that you can immediately build a full grip pattern, even with gloves on. There's approximately 30mm of space between the holster edge and the grip.

Is the weapon securely seated in the Quasimodo holster? Can it fall out?

The Quasimodo holster is a so-called "Level 1" holster. This means that the weapon is held in the holster purely by the draw resistance, which is generated by surface pressure on the contours and surfaces of the weapon. You can do anything with the Quasimodo holster. This holster is built for comfort and security.

I would like to order a Quasimodo holster with a light. Will the holster also fit without the light?

No. A Kydex holster is like a glove for your gun. It is precisely tailored to the exterior shape of your pistol. Each holster is made to your exact specifications.

Weapon + large laser/light module. Is it normal that I "could" reach the trigger?

Yes. Light modules with a larger outer shape in particular must have a corresponding and appropriate light channel. Otherwise, you won't be able to holster or draw your weapon. This effect can occur especially with "wide" light modules. The decisive factor is the distance between the trigger guard and the width of the light module. Logical, right?

Will holstering cause abrasions on my weapon / damage the coating?

Weapons are tools. Abrasion marks can occur at certain points on the weapon or on attachments (trigger guard, bolt, laser light modules, etc.) at so-called "retention points." These are contours where surface pressure builds up. Your weapon will develop abrasions from repeated holstering. Use your equipment. No safe queens here.

Is the Black Trident Quasimodo Holster compatible with silencers?

No. The Quasimodo holster cannot accommodate muzzle attachments that are larger than the standard outer contour of the weapon's slide.
