Abstract
A condition-sensing handgun holster has been developed that both allows one-handed loading or unloading of a semi-automatic pistol using a slide mechanism, and that may sense the presence of a firearm in the holster as well as its load state, is described. The holster facilitates firearm loading and unloading through use of a gun slide-arresting mechanism that allows the gun carriage to move relative to the slide, introducing or ejecting a round into or from the chamber. Gun presence in the holster and load state are determined using in-holster sensors. The data may be transmitted to remote monitors.
