SL SPECIES TAURUS GX4 STX TAC BK RH
The Safariland SL Species Taurus GX4 STX Tac is a purpose-built inside-the-waistband (IWB) holster engineered for appendix carry and everyday concealment. Designed specifically for the Taurus GX4, this minimalist holster strips away excess material in high-wear areas, giving you a low-profile package that doesn't compromise on retention or accessibility. Whether you're running errands, heading to the range, or carrying daily, the SL Species delivers the durability and fit that Safariland is known for—without the bulk of traditional IWB designs.
Built from SafariLaminate thermal-molded material, this holster is constructed to handle daily wear and environmental exposure. The suede lining protects your firearm's finish while ensuring a secure, predictable seat in the holster. Passive trigger guard retention gives you control over how the holster feels during the draw and reholster, so you can dial in the fit that works for you. An integrated tension adjustment device lets you personalize how snug or loose the holster grips your pistol, accommodating everything from fresh-out-of-box to well-worn carry guns.
The mounting system is fully adjustable—cant and ride height both dial in with the vertical-adjustable clip, so you can position the holster exactly where it sits most comfortable against your body. The clip fits standard 1.5-inch belt widths, and the firearm-specific molding means this holster was shaped for the Taurus GX4, not a generic platform. If you carry appendix or just want a slim, no-nonsense IWB option, the SL Species is built to disappear into your daily carry setup.
