Abstract
A universal holster for handguns. The holster includes front and back generally parabolic-shaped panels that are stitched together along a portion of their lateral edges. A lower portion of the panels is bifurcated into a pair of legs and enables independent flexure thereof. A pair of laterally spaced clips is provided on the back panel for coupling to a user's belt, waistband or other article. An upper tab extends from an upper edge of each panel to obstruct contact with a gun disposed in the holster. A microfiber lining is provided to aid securing and protecting the gun in the holster.
