Abstract: Weapon holsters of substantially stitchless, one-piece construction provide tension on the surface of weapons held therein. The holsters further facilitate release of weapons held therein for quick removal by the holster wearers. Shoulder, pocket and belt holsters are provided, each holster being constructed so as to facilitate concealment of a weapon held therein. The shoulder holster comprises outer and inner faces which define openings for receipt of a weapon. The weapon's barrel or forwardmost slide portion, grip and hammerspur or grip tang protrude from different openings, the weapon's barrel or forwardmost slide portion pointing in an upward direction and the weapon grip pointing in a direction substantially perpendicular to the upward direction. As the weapon grip is held and pivoted by the holster wearer, the corresponding pivoting of the barrel or forwardmost slide portion causes separation of portions of the outer and inner faces to enable release of the weapon.
