Choosing the Right Beretta Holster for Concealed Carry
Posted by STS Concealment on Apr 24th 2026
When it comes to trusted firearm manufacturers, Beretta stands at the top with a legacy of reliability, innovation, and performance. Whether you carry a Beretta PX4 Storm Subcompact, APX, or the iconic 92FS, having the right holster is essential for safe, comfortable, and effective everyday carry.
Why Your Holster Matters
A quality holster does more than just hold your firearm — it plays a critical role in safety, accessibility, and concealment. A poorly fitted holster can lead to discomfort, printing, or even unsafe handling. That’s why choosing a precision-fit holster for your specific Beretta model is key.
IWB vs. OWB for Beretta Pistols
Inside-the-Waistband (IWB) holsters are the go-to option for concealed carry. They offer a slim profile, better concealment, and are ideal for everyday wear. For compact and subcompact models like the PX4 Storm Subcompact, IWB holsters provide excellent concealability without sacrificing accessibility.
Outside-the-Waistband (OWB) holsters are preferred for range use, open carry, or situations where comfort and quick access are priorities. They offer a more natural draw and added comfort for extended wear.
Why Kydex is the Preferred Choice
Kydex holsters have become the industry standard for modern concealed carry — and for good reason:
- Durable and impact-resistant
- Maintains its shape for consistent reholstering
- Provides adjustable retention
- Resistant to sweat and moisture
- Slim and lightweight for all-day carry
A properly molded Kydex holster ensures your Beretta stays secure while allowing a smooth, repeatable draw every time.
Key Features to Look For
When selecting a holster for your Beretta, consider these important features:
- Model-specific fit for maximum retention
- Adjustable retention for personalized draw tension
- Adjustable cant for optimal carry angle
- Concealment claw (optional) to reduce printing
- Quality belt attachment (FOMI clip or paddle)
- Optic-ready compatibility if running a red dot
