You're just a few easy steps away from great concealment with the PHLster Enigma! The Open Source Enigma (OS) will accept a variety of compatible holsters from other manufacturers. This guide explains how to find a compatible holster for your Enigma.
How To Use the Open Source Enigma
1. Find a compatible holster.
My gun does NOT have a light or laser.
For guns without lights, you'll need to buy a holster from this list of Enigma compatible holsters. Choose one that suits your unique needs and preferences. The holsters on this page are all Enigma compatbile, so as long as you stick to the ordering instructions, you're good to go!
Your Enigma model is the Standard Enigma OS. Once you have your holster in hand, then it's time to order your Enigma.
My gun DOES have an attached light or laser.
For guns WITH an attached light or laser, you'll need to buy a holster from this list of Enigma compatible holsters. Choose one that suits your unique needs and preferences. The holsters on this page are all Light Bearing Enigma compatbile, so as long as you stick to the ordering instructions, you're good to go!
Your Enigma model is the Light Bearing Enigma OS. Once you have your holster in hand, then it's time to order your Enigma.
I'm not sure.
A weapon-mounted light attaches beneath the barrel of your gun. Guns with lights don't fit into regular holsters, so they need specially made holsters (along with the Light Bearing Enigma). Don't try to use a light bearing holster with the Standard Enigma, or you'll break it and/or hurt yourself.
A weapon-mounted laser also attaches beneath the barrel of the gun, and requires a special holster, along with the Light Bearing Enigma. Be aware that it can be hard to find holsters for certain gun/laser combos, so make sure you have a compatible holster in hand BEFORE you buy an Enigma.
Lasers are often confused with red dot optics. Read our article to learn the difference between the two sighting systems.
