Shop Kenai Chest Holster

Do you spend time in the outdoors? Would you like to be prepared for an encounter with a bear, ornery moose, mountain lion, or worse, a human predator? The Kenai Chest Holster was designed to be the ultimate way to carry your firearm into the wild.

The Kenai was conceived and built after a run-in (almost literally) with a black bear while mountain biking in Washington State in 2011. Since then, it’s become the go-to carry method for avid outdoor enthusiasts worldwide. Select military and law enforcement units also use it to carry while conducting mounted patrols.

The Kenai is designed with all day comfort in mind and carries the largest .50 caliber revolvers and semi-autos in extreme comfort. The harness utilizes wide flat webbing and buckles located forward on your torso, so there is no interference with pack straps. It also has heavy-duty double-layer elastic sewn in key locations, so it expands and contracts as you breathe. Because it runs underneath your back county setup, your firearm always stays with you if you drop your pack or other gear.

The Kenai Chest Holster

The Kenai Chest Holster gives you the confidence you need when split seconds counts. The Kenai uses inherent retention, so the pistol snaps in. Should you need it, there are no snaps, straps, zippers, or buttons. You just grab it and pull. Draw times are every bit as fast as a belt worn range holster. Every holster that leaves our facility has the retention set with the real pistol, so we’re 100% sure it will be there when you need it.

The Kenai is built entirely in the USA from US-sourced materials and hardware and will withstand the harshest conditions for a lifetime. Like everything we make, there are no threaded fasteners in the Kenai, and it’s entirely hard riveted, so there is nothing to work loose and fall out.
