It is the answer to the way most carriers actually get hurt — not by an attacker, but by their own weapon, by mistake. ### The ballistic muzzle cap A reinforced ballistic cap is sealed over the muzzle end of the holster. If a round is ever discharged while the pistol is holstered, the cap catches and contains the bullet instead of letting it travel down into the wearer's leg. ### Trigger protection A moulded Kydex shell locks completely over the trigger guard, so nothing — a finger, a drawstring, the edge of a jacket — can reach the trigger while the gun is holstered. ### Construction and wear - Moulded Kydex shell - Reinforced ballistic muzzle cap - Breathable padded backer panel that sits flat against the skin - Dual reinforced belt clips - Adjustable cant, ride height and retention - Draw stays consistent for appendix, strong side or behind-the-hip carry ### Fit Universal — fits most compact and full-size striker-fired pistols. ### Options Right-hand or left-hand carry. ### Price $55 flat. In stock, ships worldwide. --- ## Upcoming Products (Roadmap) ### TITAN-9C Covert (Q2 2026) Ultra-thin concealable variant of the TITAN-9, engineered to be worn invisibly under clothing while delivering the same Level IIIA protection. ### AEGIS Tactical Helmet (Q3 2026) Lightweight ballistic helmet featuring a modular accessory rail system and NVG (night-vision goggle) mount. ### TITAN-IV Plate Carrier (Q3 2026) Heavy-duty plate carrier loaded with NIJ Level IV ceramic composite plates.
