{"product_id":"minotaur","title":"The Minotaur V3 - IWB Holster\/Magazine Carrier Combo","description":"\u003ch2\u003eA Complete Appendix Carry System, Built Around You.\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCarrying a firearm and spare magazine together should not mean accepting unnecessary bulk or a rigid platform that fights against your body.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat is what the Minotaur V3 was designed around.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe original Minotaur became one of Alpha's best-selling holsters. The V3 rebuilds that concept as a flexible, two-piece appendix carry system with greater control over how the firearm and magazine sit against your body.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe result is a complete carry system designed to remain comfortable, stable, and accessible throughout the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFlexibility Without the Bulk\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Minotaur connects the firearm holster and magazine carrier with a streamlined Kydex bridge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe bridge provides enough flexibility for the two sides to move naturally with your body while maintaining the structure needed to keep the system properly positioned on your belt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Minotaur maintains a clean, low-profile footprint without unnecessary layers or bulky connection hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eIndependent Ride-Height Adjustment\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhere a firearm and spare magazine ride can have a major effect on comfort, concealment, and accessibility.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Minotaur allows the ride height of the firearm and magazine carrier to be adjusted independently. This gives you greater control over how deeply each component sits below the belt and how much access remains above it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMake small adjustments until both the firearm and magazine feel secure, accessible, and properly balanced.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAdjustable Magazine Cant\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe magazine carrier includes multiple mounting positions that allow you to adjust its angle independently from the firearm holster.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChanging the magazine cant can help the carrier follow the natural shape of your body, reduce printing, and position the magazine for a more comfortable and consistent reload.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eIndependent Retention Adjustment\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFirearm and magazine retention are adjusted separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis allows you to control how securely each item is held and how much resistance you feel during the draw without forcing both sides into the same setting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTurn the appropriate retention screw clockwise to increase retention or counterclockwise to decrease it. Make adjustments in small increments, approximately one quarter turn at a time, and check the fit after each adjustment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlways perform retention adjustments and fit checks with the firearm unloaded and the magazine empty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe goal is not simply to make everything tighter. It is to find the balance that feels secure while still allowing a smooth, consistent draw.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eLow-Profile DCC Hardware\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Minotaur comes standard with two DCC Series 1 clips - available in 1.5\" or 1.75\" sizing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese low-profile spring-steel clips provide secure belt engagement while distributing the weight of the firearm and loaded magazine across two attachment points.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe clips can be adjusted independently to help fine-tune the ride height and positioning of the complete system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy a Concealment Wing?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor many people, the hardest part of concealing a handgun is not the slide. It is the grip.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA concealment wing uses pressure from your belt to gently rotate the grip toward your body. This can reduce printing and help the firearm sit closer without relying on an excessively tight belt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Minotaur can be configured with a concealment wing if your setup benefits from the additional concealment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBuilt Around Your Firearm\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery Minotaur is formed for the specific firearm model you select, with clearance for modern carry setups including optics, suppressor-height sights, and many threaded barrels or compensators.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe firearm shell, magazine carrier, trigger-guard geometry, sight channel, retention points, and mounting pattern are designed to work together as one complete system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eYour Minotaur is built specifically for the firearm model selected. The included magazine carrier is designed to fit the corresponding factory magazine for that firearm.

Stay secure. And be there when you need it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSweat Guard\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe sweat guard is the portion of the holster that extends upward between the firearm and your body. Its purpose is to help create a barrier between your skin and the firearm while also helping guide the firearm back into the holster during reholstering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLow Sweat Guard:\u003c\/strong\u003e Minimal material above the trigger-guard area for customers who prefer the most open access to the firearm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMid Sweat Guard:\u003c\/strong\u003e A balanced option that provides additional coverage while keeping the rear of the slide and controls relatively accessible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFull Sweat Guard:\u003c\/strong\u003e Extends higher along the slide for the most coverage between the firearm and your body.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is not one sweat-guard height that works best for everyone.
