A concealment holster, the Kydex carry rig is designed to be a universal fit that uses a mounted light to retain the firearm. How well does it work?

The holster in this article was provided for testing by Crucial Concealment.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"dropcap\">T<\/span>he question we\u2019re going to tackle today relates to a new ambidextrous multi-fit concealment inside-the-waistband (IWB) holster from Crucial Concealment. I have owned a few Crucial holsters over the years and have liked them, but this one has some new tricks up its sleeve.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><picture fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-57754\"><source type=\"image\/webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-with-Springfield-Armory-Echelon.jpg.webp 1400w, https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-with-Springfield-Armory-Echelon-800x533.jpg.webp 800w, https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-with-Springfield-Armory-Echelon-400x267.jpg.webp 400w, https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-with-Springfield-Armory-Echelon-768x512.jpg.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-with-Springfield-Armory-Echelon-600x400.jpg.webp 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\"\/>\n<\/picture><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The Crucial Concealment Universal Light holster is designed to work with a variety of handguns that have a Streamlight TLR-1, Streamlight TLR-7 or SureFire X300 mounted on its accessory rail.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>For those who don\u2019t know, Crucial Concealment was founded by the owners of another company, Blackpoint Tactical. They formed Crucial to provide consistently high-quality, U.S.-made holsters at a value price for consumers.<\/p>\n<p>Needless to say, they hit the mark because Crucial Concealment has grown and grown since its founding in 2019. All of this growth was accomplished while maintaining high levels of value and quality for its customers. But, what makes this new multi-fit holster for light-bearing pistols so special? Also, does it do what it is designed for, and is it worth your hard-earned money?<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Makes a Good Holster?<\/h2>\n<p>There are a lot of companies out there with new wiz-bang holsters today. But despite all the technology available, there are still simple design elements that make a holster worth carrying around. Let\u2019s break down what a good holster looks and feels like, and how it\u2019s made.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><picture decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-57755\"><source type=\"image\/webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-review-1.jpg.webp 1400w, https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-review-1-800x450.jpg.webp 800w, https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-review-1-400x225.jpg.webp 400w, https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-review-1-768x432.jpg.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-review-1-600x337.jpg.webp 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\"\/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1400\" height=\"787\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-review-1.jpg\" alt=\"Crucial Concealment Universal Light holster review\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-review-1.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-review-1-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-review-1-400x225.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-review-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-review-1-600x337.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\"\/>\n<\/picture><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The author tested the Crucial Concealment Universal Light IWB holster with a Springfield Armory Echelon pistol. The author used an OD green Icarus Precision A.C.E. aluminum grip frame on his Echelon.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>First, it needs to be made of a consistently high-quality, long-lasting material. To meet this benchmark, Crucial makes their holsters out of the well-respected Kydex material, which is extremely durable and has been proven to be one of the best holster-making materials in the market today.<\/p>\n<p>There also must be solid retention and concealability. Within the Universal Light Holster from Crucial, you get an exclusive belt clip design that keeps the holster in position. It also aids in the draw process by keeping a firm grip on your beltline. The ability to conceal the Crucial holster is aided by its kickstand attachment that pushes against the belt inwards, keeping the pistol grip from printing.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><picture decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-57756\"><source type=\"image\/webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-testing.jpg.webp 1400w, https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-testing-800x533.jpg.webp 800w, https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-testing-400x267.jpg.webp 400w, https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-testing-768x512.jpg.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-testing-600x400.jpg.webp 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\"\/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1400\" height=\"933\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-testing.jpg\" alt=\"Crucial Concealment Universal Light holster testing\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-testing.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-testing-800x533.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-testing-400x267.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-testing-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-testing-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\"\/>\n<\/picture><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Crucial Concealment uses 0.093\u2033 Kydex for its Universal Light holster. It is designed to be ambidextrous with an adjustable ride height and tilt.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>If you don\u2019t know what printing is, it\u2019s when the pistol grip or any portion of the pistol pushes out against your clothing enough to outline the pistol in some way so it is recognizable. There is also adjustable retention on the holster so your pistol will be firmly retained by friction. This also allows for adjustments to match the pistol thickness from one size category to the next.<\/p>\n<p>And, of course, comfort always comes into play with holsters. Crucial has streamlined the design of the holster so there is no excess material or rough edges to dig into your skin.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Is the Crucial Difference?<\/h2>\n<p>There are some elements of the Crucial Concealment Universal Light Holster multi-fit system that definitely set it apart from the rest.

The rig uses a \u201ckickstand\u201d that angles the pistol grip closer to the body, improving concealment.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>First, let\u2019s tackle what a multi-fit holster is. This holster from Crucial Concealment will fit most compact and full-sized pistols equipped with a <a class=\"ajax-article\" href=\"https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/no-haters-here-surefire-x300u-review\/\">Surfire X300 series light<\/a>. What this means is if you go from your full-size to your compact, as long as you still run the same light you can use the same holster. Also, if you\u2019re not a Surefire X300 user, there are also options for the <a class=\"ajax-article\" href=\"https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/a-cops-perspective-on-the-streamlight-tlr-1-hl-fde\/\">Streamlight TLR-1<\/a> and TLR-7 series lights.<\/p>\n<div class=\"newsletter inline\">\n<div class=\"newsletter-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" style=\"display: none;\" class=\"logo-tal-icon\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/themes\/thearmorylife\/img\/logo-tal-tm-icon.svg\" alt=\"\"\/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Live The Armory Life.<\/strong> The latest content straight to your inbox plus an automatic entry to each of our <a class=\"ajax-giveaways\" href=\"https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/giveaways\/\"><strong>monthly gun\u00a0giveaways!<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Another big difference is the ambidextrous design of the holster.

The adjustable retention screw allows users to fine-tune the fit.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>And for me, probably the biggest innovation in a multi-fit holster is the adjustable friction retention shim built on the inside of the holster. This changes the entire feel of how firmly the pistol fits inside the holster. When you make a holster that can fit many different sizes and brands of pistols, you need to leave room for all of them to fit. A byproduct of this can be a holster that allows the pistol to slightly cant or move back and forth within the holster. However, due to the internal shim design from Crucial, this is not a concern.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Using the Crucial Concealment Universal Light Holster<\/h2>\n<p>Wearing the holster around for several weeks, I immediately noticed the minimal design was comfortable to wear in the appendix and 3 o\u2019clock positions. These positions seem to be the most common amongst the everyday carry enthusiasts.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><picture loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-57760\"><source type=\"image\/webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/testing-the-Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-on-the-shooting-range.jpg.webp 1400w, https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/testing-the-Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-on-the-shooting-range-800x450.jpg.webp 800w, https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/testing-the-Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-on-the-shooting-range-400x225.jpg.webp 400w, https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/testing-the-Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-on-the-shooting-range-768x432.jpg.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/testing-the-Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-on-the-shooting-range-600x337.jpg.webp 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\"\/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1400\" height=\"787\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/testing-the-Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-on-the-shooting-range.jpg\" alt=\"testing the Crucial Concealment Universal Light holster on the shooting range\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/testing-the-Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-on-the-shooting-range.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/testing-the-Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-on-the-shooting-range-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/testing-the-Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-on-the-shooting-range-400x225.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/testing-the-Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-on-the-shooting-range-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/testing-the-Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-on-the-shooting-range-600x337.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\"\/>\n<\/picture><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The low-profile design of the Crucial Concealment holster ensures discreet carry without excess bulk. It\u2019s built for everyday comfort and easy concealment.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The concealment kickstand helps keep the pistol tucked tightly against the body, and the adjustable retention keeps the pistol firmly in place. Your belt will be firmly grasped by the clip on the Covert holster to ensure when you draw the pistol, the holster stays in place. Both holstering and drawing are smooth, consistent and repeatable once you get familiar with your new holster and pistol position.<\/p>\n<p>While adjusting the retention for my pistols, I did add a dab of Loctite to the fasteners, which is something I always do. This is personal preference, but anytime I see a screw and I know it needs to stay where it\u2019s at, I use a locking compound that will ensure it doesn\u2019t loosen over time. Just make sure you use a non-permanent locking compound.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is It \u201cthe\u201d One?<\/h2>\n<p>I think Crucial Concealment did a great job on the new Universal Light Holster. They took the multi-fit design and gave it the added retention with the adjustable shim design while still allowing enough room to go from a full-size pistol to a compact. An example of the modularity here is you can go from an Echelon like I used on the range to a Springfield 1911 DS Prodigy.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><picture loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-57761\"><source type=\"image\/webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-testing-on-the-shooting-range.jpg.webp 1400w, https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-testing-on-the-shooting-range-800x450.jpg.webp 800w, https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-testing-on-the-shooting-range-400x225.jpg.webp 400w, https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-testing-on-the-shooting-range-768x432.jpg.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-testing-on-the-shooting-range-600x337.jpg.webp 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\"\/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1400\" height=\"787\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-testing-on-the-shooting-range.jpg\" alt=\"Crucial Concealment Universal Light holster testing on the shooting range\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-testing-on-the-shooting-range.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-testing-on-the-shooting-range-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-testing-on-the-shooting-range-400x225.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-testing-on-the-shooting-range-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Crucial-Concealment-Universal-Light-holster-testing-on-the-shooting-range-600x337.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\"\/>\n<\/picture><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The holster\u2019s minimalist profile makes it a great option for concealed carry, even with a weapon light.
