Your competition holster needs to do three things.
- Keep your pistol safe.
- Keep your pistol accessible.
- Give you a lightning fast draw.
But when it comes to competition rigs, those three don’t always play well together. Custom competition holsters come with big price tags and even bigger lead times. Usually months of waiting. The worst part is when you invest the time and money — only for that fancy new holster to end up just as bad as the bucket you’ve been slogging through competitions for years.
Holsters rely on trigger guard retention to keep your blaster on your hip. But you’ve experienced the downsides. You draw, but the holster bites into the trigger guard and you get holster-flip. Holster-flip is seconds of precious time wasted battling your gear. Not just against the clock, but in dry-fire practice too.
So you bottom out the retention screws to kill holster-flip and you end up with a holster that’ll vomit your pistol into the gravel if you do anything more aggressive than the nursing home shuffle. That’s a recipe for a warning at best — a DQ at worst.
The X1 Raptor is the solution you’ve been looking for.
The Mag-Lock
The X1 Raptor Competition Holster is equipped with a 7lb magnet at the muzzle. It will keep your pistol holstered through explosive movement off the line, but it won’t slow your draw, and it completely eliminates holster-flip.
In fact, if you ask the competitive shooters who run the X1 — it’ll speed you up. That’s because the X1 Raptor doesn’t rely on traditional retention to grab your pistol. You won’t fight kydex resistance along your slide and frame on the draw-stroke. Once you defeat the magnet, it’s pure speed.
The X1 Raptor puts that ball in your court.
The magnet is secured with a Tegris bridge that spans the muzzle-end of the holster and sucks your pistol down with the power of science.
Included with the Mag Lock system are a series of laser cut stickers that allow you to fine tune the amount of magnetism.
Competition has finally caught up to the 21st century. So should your competition holster.
The X1 Raptor is ready for today’s competitions. The USPSA has finally caught up with the times and will let you run a rail mounted light. But holster makers haven’t. Light-bearing holsters on the market today take the problems of holster flip and amplify them.
That’s because traditional holsters rely on Kydex friction on the light housing itself. And the light adds a lot of surface area for the Kydex to grab.
The X1 Raptor doesn’t. Aside from the length of the WML housing itself, you won’t notice the difference between a WML equipped draw, vs a naked draw from the X1 Raptor.
Protection off the line.

Butter smooth, very durable, and excellent attention to detail. Top tier customer service. Excited to buy more when I pick up some other hand guns. Highly recommend.

This may be the most clean and innovative level 1 comp holster I’ve come across. Came across a comment on Lucas Botkins YT video and immediately got one for my G47, safe to say I’m not disappointed. Thank you, Carey Concealment.

I’m far beyond happy with the X1 Raptor Performance Holster from CAREY Concealment. After getting one for my CZ Shadow 2, I was so impressed that I immediately ordered another for my Glock 34.
The fit, retention, and draw feel are absolutely top-tier tight where it needs to be, smooth when it counts. The build quality is exceptional, clearly designed by someone who understands both competition and everyday carry needs. Comfort and performance are perfectly balanced here.
I highly recommend the X1 Raptor to anyone serious about quality gear. It’s become my go-to holster for range days, training, and matches alike.

Once you’ve had a chance to get it on your hanger you’ll instantly realize that the kydex has been thoughtfully omitted from all the places you would hope. Obviously, if you’re looking at this holster, you understand the innovation behind what Carey is doing, and the fit and final product simply exceed expectations.
