ARES HD Tactical OWB Holster
Heavy-Duty Construction. Tactical Purpose. Built for the Fight.
The First Capital Tactical ARES HD Tactical OWB Holster is built for users who demand greater rigidity, durability, and strength from their equipment. Purpose-designed for tactical belt and hard-use applications, the ARES HD combines a streamlined OWB platform with substantially heavier construction.
At the core of the ARES HD is .125" Kydex — significantly thicker than the material commonly used for everyday-carry holsters. The heavier material creates an exceptionally rigid holster body designed to withstand demanding use while maintaining its shape and providing consistent firearm retention.
Each ARES HD is precision-formed for the selected firearm configuration, providing a secure fit, consistent draw, and dependable passive Level I retention.
Unlike the NOMAD, which is designed around lightweight everyday carry, the ARES HD is purpose-built around tactical belt use. Its reinforced construction provides a solid foundation for belt-mounted applications where rigidity, durability, and dependable equipment matter more than minimizing weight or bulk.
Whether configured for law enforcement, armed security, training, range use, or a personal tactical belt setup, the ARES HD is designed for users who expect their equipment to perform when it matters.
