FALCO® Holsters is proud to announce the launch of the C917 Kydex holster and its light-bearing counterpart, the C917 L, developed in collaboration with the 3 of 7 Project. Designed for both OWB and IWB strong-side carry, the new holsters combine FALCO's old-world craftsmanship and cutting-edge R&D with the 3 of 7 Project's real-world experience from Navy SEAL and SWAT operations.
OWB/IWB Kydex Holsters C917 & C917 L
Both holsters combine full Kydex construction with a perforated leather backer for improved comfort and ventilation during extended wear. An FBI cant helps conceal the handgun's grip, while adjustable retention allows the draw resistance to be fine-tuned to the wearer's preference. A ¾-length sweat guard shields the handgun from body moisture without digging uncomfortably into the hip.
Two polymer belt loops provide the primary OWB setup. For gun carriers who want greater versatility, the included tuckable clips allow the same holster to be converted for IWB carry. The open-top and open-bottom design provides fast access and accommodates threaded barrels. Both holsters can also be configured for handguns equipped with red dot sights.
The C917 L expands the design to pistols equipped with weapon-mounted lights or lasers. Both models are handcrafted from U.S. Kydex and full-grain Italian leather.
C917 MSRP: $219.95
C917 L MSRP: $229.95
Built Through Experience
The 3 of 7 Project was founded around the mission of mastering, nourishing, and maintaining body, soul, and spirit. Their background in Navy SEAL and SWAT operations brings a practical perspective to equipment that must remain comfortable, dependable, and consistent through everyday use.
"Quality is nowadays sold through one standout feature instead of being built into every detail. I am proud that we still do things the old way and define quality by getting every small decision right, from testing various materials against the body to finding the exact angle of the draw and making sure the holster feels right after hours of wear and continues to perform well for years to come. Working with 3 of 7 challenged us to refine every aspect of these holsters. The C917 and C917 L are the kind of products where you can feel the work that went into them," said FALCO Holsters CEO Róbert Kováč.
"When you have relied on equipment professionally, you learn very quickly what deserves your trust. We wanted a strong-side holster that sits securely on the belt, conceals well, provides quick access to the firearm, and feels right from the moment you put it on, even after hours of wear. It was not a simple task, but every minute spent developing ideas and testing them was well worth it. The result is a holster we can confidently stand behind," said Chadd Wright of the 3 of 7 Project.
