Pistol magazine holster with snag
A pistol magazine holster may comprise a body capable of retaining a pistol magazine, a support structure coupled to the body and adapted to secure the body to a compartment, and a snag member coupled to the body. The snag member may be adapted to retain the body within the compartment as the magazine is withdrawn.
1. A pistol magazine holster, comprising:
an elongate body defined by opposing front and rear portions, a first side portion, and an opposed second side portion defining a side thickness, the rear portion of the elongate body further defining a structure coupling point; and
a primary snag member coupled to and extending laterally outward from a top end of the first side portion opposite the rear portion of the elongate body as offset by the side thickness and at a central region of the elongate body between the opposite top and bottom ends thereof, the primary snag member being in a substantially orthogonal relation to the elongate body, the primary snag member being vertically offset from the structure coupling point;
wherein the primary snag member is adapted to retain the elongate body within a compartment.
2. The pistol magazine holster of claim 1 , wherein the body is rigid.
3. The pistol magazine holster of claim 1 , further comprising:
a bottom portion coupled to at least one of the front, rear, first side, or second side portions, and configured to support an end of a pistol magazine;
wherein:
the first side portion is adjacent to the front and rear portions and coupled to at least one of the front portion or rear portion,
the second side portion is adjacent to the front and rear portions and coupled to at least one of the front portion or rear portion, the second side portion having a greater height than the first side portion.
4. The pistol magazine holster of claim 3 , wherein the bottom portion is rigid.
5. The pistol magazine holster of claim 1 , further comprising a clip attached to the structure coupling point.
6. The pistol magazine holster of claim 5 , wherein the clip is adapted to secure the elongate body, such that the primary snag member hooks against a section of the compartment in response to pressure associated with removal of the pistol magazine.
7. The pistol magazine holster of claim 1 , wherein the primary snag member includes a main portion and a hook portion, the main portion being coupled to the elongate body at a first side and to the hook portion at a second side.
8. The pistol magazine holster of claim 7 , wherein the hook portion is configured to hook against a section of the compartment in response to pressure associated with removal of the pistol magazine.
9. The pistol magazine holster of claim 3 , wherein the primary snag member is coupled to the second side portion.
10. The pistol magazine holster of claim 1 , further comprising:
a secondary snag member coupled to the elongate body.
11. The pistol magazine holster of claim 10 , wherein the primary snag member and the secondary snag member are configured to hook in different directions.
12. The pistol magazine holster of claim 5 , wherein the clip is compressively engageable to a front panel of the compartment against the elongate body.
13. The pistol magazine holster of claim 12 , wherein the primary snag member hooks against an interior portion of either one or both of the front panel and a rear panel of the compartment in response to pressure associated with removal of the pistol magazine.
14. The pistol magazine holster of claim 1 , wherein the primary snag member is hooked in an upward direction toward the structure coupling point of the elongate body.
15. The pistol magazine holster of claim 1 , wherein at least a portion of an exterior surface of the elongate body has a textured surface.
16. A firearm box magazine holster, comprising:
an elongate body;
a support structure coupled to a rear portion of the elongate body and adapted to secure the elongate body to a compartment; and
a primary snag member coupled to and extending laterally outward from a top end of a long side portion of the elongate body opposite the rear portion thereof and offset by a side thickness and at a central region of the elongate body between opposite top and bottom ends thereof, the primary snag member being in a substantially orthogonal relation to the elongate body and to the support structure;
wherein the primary snag member is adapted to retain the elongate body within the compartment, and the long side has a greater height than the short side.
17. The firearm box magazine holster of claim 16 , wherein the support structure is coupled to the rear portion of the elongate body at a structure coupling point thereof.
18. The firearm box magazine holster of claim 17 , wherein the primary snag member is vertically offset from the structure coupling point.
