Galco Gunleather introduced its new Ankle Guard holster at the 2018 SHOT Show. It includes some of the best features of the popular Ankle Glove and the ultra-modern BlakGuard belt holster.
Twin tension units allow quick adjustment for ease of draw and handgun security, while a tension-locking unit secures the handgun at the trigger guard. The Ankle Guard’s "trench" style sight rail easily accommodates virtually all iron sights, and this generously beveled sight rail also allows a smooth and easy return to the holster. The front of the Ankle Guard is cut low and even allows use of most carry-style optical sights.

The Ankle Guard’s neoprene ankle cuff is padded with genuine sheepskin and secured with Velcro. A metal D-ring allows attachment of the optional Ankle Calf Strap. The cuff fits ankles up to 13 inches in circumference.
Available in black, the Ankle Guard’s MSRP is $85.
