Blackhawk has announced two additions to the Stache family of concealed carry products with the introduction of the Stache R.A.H.C. (Rapid Access Holster Carrier) Belt Pack and the Stache N.A.C.H.O. (Non-Conventional Adaptive Carry Holster Option) Belly Band.

The Stache R.A.H.C. Belt Pack is specifically designed for rapid access to your handgun. Wearers can pull up on the bottom of the storage compartment, which is held by rare earth magnets, or gain stealth access by using the top access zipper. Lightweight and with tough, 200D water-resistant polyester construction, the Stache R.A.H.C. is built around a rigid 1.5-inch double layer SCUBA webbing that secures a Glock 19-sized Stache IWB holster or similar system (holster not included). This makes the Stache R.A.H.C. a good alternative when carrying inside-the-waistband isn’t practical.
Completely ambidextrous, the Stache R.A.H.C. boasts adjustable straps from 26 inches to 58 inches, allowing the pack to easily transition from waist pack to behind-the-back pack to over-the-shoulder pack depending on the carrier’s needs. A 3-D mesh backer provides comfortable padding and breathability when on the trail or exercising.
Outside, the Stache R.A.H.C. features a small 7 x 3.5-inch pocket that’s designed for smartphone storage. On the inside, a larger zippered mesh 7.75 x 5.5-inch pocket easily accepts other personal items. The concealed handgun compartment is padded to reduce printing.
The Stache N.A.C.H.O. Belly Band is a concealed carry solution for those days a carrier might be wearing board shorts, gym shorts, sweatpants, yoga pants, or a skirt. Constructed with a 4-inch tall, double-ply elastic band and a hook-and-loop closure, the N.A.C.H.O. Belly Band hugs your body for a secure fit. Rigid 1.5-inch double layer SCUBA webbing secures a Glock 19-sized Stache IWB holster or similar system (holster not included), plus other pockets hold cell phones, flashlights, or spare magazines.
Besides the N.A.C.H.O. Belly Band’s carrying capacity, it’s designed for all-day comfort. Rounded band ends reduce hot spots, and a generous 3-D mesh backing creates padding and breathability when things get hot. The double-ply elastic band is strong enough to support your firearm while also flexing around your body for optimized comfort. Available in five sizes from extra small to extra large, the N.A.C.H.O. Belly Band can be adapted for multiple carry positions including appendix, hip, behind-the-hip, and upper torso carry.
The Stache R.A.H.C Belt Pack has an MSRP of $89.95 and the Stache N.A.C.H.O. Belly Band has an MSRP of $44.95. The new Stache products will be showcased to the public during the 2022 SHOT Show and will be available at retail this April. www.blackhawk.com.
