The NRA Show is one of the highlights of the year in the firearms industry, and Alien Gear Holsters was there to show off our line of concealed carry holsters and concealed carry accessories.

Among our wares that we showed to the attendees was the ShapeShift Modular Holster System, which you can see right here: http://aliengearholsters.com/shapeshift-modular-holster-system.html

We decided to try something fun with the people that dropped by our booth and had a look at our gun holsters at the 2018 NRA Meetings.

Some people think that a quality gun holster has to cost a lot of money to really be good. There is a strong psychological association between price and quality. The more something costs, the better it likely is or so we are encouraged to think. Sometimes it is true, but it isn't always.

We showed people a series of concealed carry holsters at the NRA show, and asked them what they thought it should cost. Then we showed them what they actually cost to buy. As you can see from their reactions, a number of people were surprised.

They were surprised how they would have to pay more than what they thought they should for some holsters. But they were also surprised at how competitive the value of the 4.0 IWB Holster by Alien Gear Holsters is.

They thought our holster cost a lot more than it actually does.

Why?

Materials can seem premium, but you'd be surprised at how little a premium many "premium" materials actually command. Skilled hands have to put holsters together, to be sure, but you'd be surprised how many can be put together in a day.

Many so-called premium holsters are not the bespoke, completely custom items that they are billed as.

Alien Gear Holsters has always believed in offering a quality product at a competitive price point. We opt to take lower margins because we want to offer actual value for money rather than perceived quality for money. We create quality products but make them easier to acquire so we can actually serve customers, not just our bottom line.

We also offer one of the most comprehensive product guarantees in the industry.
