Carry Options for Beretta APX A1 Compact holsters

Concealed Carry

For concealed carry, the Beretta APX A1 Compact pairs best with IWB holsters due to its compact size and ergonomic design. These holsters allow the firearm to be tucked discreetly against the body, minimizing printing while maintaining accessibility. 

IWB Holsters

Beretta APX A1 Compact holster IWB models are ideal for discreet carry. Inside-the-waistband designs minimize printing and allow for deep concealment under everyday clothing. Choose models with adjustable cant and ride height for a customized fit.

OWB Holsters

A Beretta APX A1 Compact holster OWB setup is best for open carry or range use. Outside-the-waistband holsters offer faster access and better comfort during extended wear. Look for options with paddle or belt-slide attachments for a stable, secure fit.

Shoulder Holsters

Shoulder holsters provide an alternative for users who sit frequently or prefer off-body carry. A Beretta APX A1 Compact shoulder holster evenly distributes weight across the shoulders, reducing beltline pressure. This method works well under jackets and provides fast cross-draw access. Adjustable straps and holster cant enhance comfort and accessibility.

Holsters with Light Compatibility

A Beretta APX A1 Compact holster with light is essential for those who equip their pistol with a tactical light or laser. These holsters are precision-molded to accommodate the extra bulk without sacrificing retention or draw speed. Ensure compatibility with your specific light model for a secure fit. This option is ideal for low-light environments and tactical applications.

Simply put - NOT WORTH THE WAIT. I usually don't leave negative reviews or reviews in general, but this holster deserves one. FYI, I have been a fan of leather holsters for years, so not my first one, by any means. There was a couple MAJOR issues with this holster... 1. Not a "molded" holster as described or like other makers molded holsters. 2. This holster was made so small that it was a BIG pain to "break-in. It was so tight, that after soaking the inside of the holster with denatured alcohol as instructed, it was very difficult to insert the muzzle of the pistol, let alone get the holster past the trigger guard. So when you read "soak" you need to really soak the leather to get the leather softened up enough. And now that the holster softened up and I was able to finally insert the pistol fully (wrapped in a plastic bag) and now dry. what looks like fine micro cracks on the outside of the leather have formed. These stress areas are along where the edges of the pistol are in the holster. 3. "Soaking" the leather, and their instructions says "to soak" the leather on the inside, well "soaking" I managed to get a little of the denatured alcohol on the outside edges of the holster... Well, it "streaked the beautiful "Mahogany" finish. I did reach out to Craft about my disappointment with the holster and well they replied with a 'run around' for proof of the issues. I did receive a nice discount on the holster from a special they were running, but jumping through their "hoops" and then to send it back and wait another month at least... Simply not worth wasting my time. I will stick with the US made leather holsters. At least then I'll get a holster that is truly a molded holster and sized properly.
