Description
Follow Tiny Hatchet Builder so you never miss a preparedness model!
Looking for a holster for your UV-9R / UV-9G / UV-9R PRO that will protect it from accidentally button presses and volume knob movements?
Check out this “Protection” Holster!
The front panel has cutouts to enable access to the buttons, microphone and speaker. The sides have slots remote microphones to be mounted, with subtle offsets to reduce the chance of accidental PTT contact. Two retention clips on the top keep the radio from accidentally falling out and from rattling inside the case.
The top of the holster has a cutout so that the factory clip can be used if desired (on the “Flat Back” version this will work best). Please note this will only work reliably with the touchpad facing forward to provide the best engagement with the retention clips.
On the top of the holster are protective wings to reduce the chance of accidental volume adjustments.
The radio can be inserted forward for access to the buttons, or reversed so that the screen and buttons are protected from accidental touch or for light discipline.
There are multiple models with different clip configurations to enable mounting to MOLLE, belts, or even sliding into a mag pouch.
Current clips:
1" Clip for attaching to MOLLE
2.25” Loop with 1/4” inner clearance for attaching to belts
“Flat Back” for sliding in and out of mag pouches.
The bottom of the holster was designed to provide a secure building platform and position the holster at a 30 degree angle to increase strength.
Design has been tested in PETG and the 1" Clip version will likely hold up the best in that material due to improved flexibility. PLA+ will likely work well with the no clip and loop attachment versions as there is minimal bending required for those applications, but has not been tested.
I have other variations of holsters for the UV-9 family as well as for the UV-5R and Yaesu VX-6R that you can check out on my listing page!
