Why Choose a Cross Draw Holster?
Cross draw holsters are designed for those who prioritise comfort while seated and prefer an alternative draw angle. Worn on the opposite side of your dominant hand, this carry style allows you to reach across your body to draw your firearm.
Ideal for seated carry
Cross draw holsters are excellent for drivers or individuals who spend long periods sitting. The placement allows for easy access to your Taurus 450 - 2" without interference from seatbelts or armrests.
Natural draw motion
The cross-body draw is intuitive for many users, especially those with limited shoulder mobility. It provides a smooth, sweeping motion that can feel more comfortable than a straight-side draw.
Great for open carry and concealment
While cross draw is often used for open carry, with the right cover garment, it can also work effectively for concealed carry, especially when worn slightly forward of the hip.
Keeps firearm away from dominant side activities
For users who carry tools, radios, or other gear on their dominant side, cross draw keeps the firearm accessible without interfering with other equipment.
Suitable for specific defensive scenarios
Cross draw carry can be advantageous in retention scenarios where the firearm is protected by your arms and body angle, making it harder for others to grab.
Whether you’re looking for a comfortable seated carry option or prefer the cross-body draw motion, a cross draw holster provides a practical and accessible way to carry your Taurus 450 - 2".
