Abstract
A holster for a handgun assembly includes a holster body having a chamber for receiving the handgun assembly. A tensioner is mounted on the holster body in a position to be engaged by the handgun assembly in the chamber, and is operable to apply a resilient biasing force to the handgun assembly in the chamber. The tensioner includes tensioner body that is engaged and deformed by the handgun assembly, and a spring for resisting and controlling deformation of the tensioner body. The tensioner has a first end portion mounted on the holster body for only rotational movement on the holster body, and a second end portion mounted on the holster body for both sliding and rotational movement on the holster body. A tension spring maintains tension on the tensioner body.
