Paddle belt can be used with the CARBON GHOST BELT to obtain better extraction. Also gives better stability of the holster thanks to the rigid higher part.

Laser cut plastic logo inlays for the Alpha-X holster body and hanger. These inlays have 3M tape on their back for easy installation on the holster assembly.

Note that it is possible to remove the color inlays and swap them for a new color when desired. However, the old color inlay may break when removed.

Some shooters prefer to have a muzzle support on their competition holster. This is an indisputable fact.

While most users will find that the Race Master holster functions perfectly without the additional muzzle support, there are some added advantages to using this extension: The muzzle support prevents the gun from being dislodged upwards, which could happen if bumped on the shooters thigh, or against a prop, during a walkthrough. If the holster was left unlocked, the gun can be dislodged. The muzzle support prevents this from happening.

In recent years Double-Alpha Academy's competition holsters have been setting the benchmark for advanced design and cutting-edge performance. The Race Master Holster has become the go-to competition holster worldwide for many top Champion shooters in our sport.

Double-Alpha is known for not standing still, and over time the Race Master Holster has been improved. Upgrades and refinements were made to its hanger system and more recently, to the patented insert block, making it magnetic and improving its performance further.

And now, over the past few months, DAA has been working on the next generation holster. We are very proud to introduce the Alpha-X holster!

The ALPHA-X was born of years of experience and market feedback, looking to take the Race Master Holster even further, creating a new fresh, striking look and adding several meaningful performance upgrades.

New Ball Joint and Lock-Up Mechanism

The ball joint of the Alpha-X offers a wide range of motion, allowing you to position your holster at just the right angle. This holster uses a much larger ball joint and a pressure lug lock-up, which locks the ball firmly without marking or damaging it. With this system even the smallest adjustments are always possible.

The ball joint is now located higher up, closer to the center of the holster. This reduces the torque and forces applied, contributing to the solid rigid feel of the holster. 

A large easy-to-reach one-screw locking system allows you to adjust the holster position even when wearing it.

Body Rail Height Adjustment

The Alpha-X achieves its height adjustment by means of a rail built directly into the side of the holster body itself. This offers an extended range of adjustment and again reduces torque and forces applied. Here too the lock up is achieved by an expanding dovetail mechanism that does not gouge or damage the rail.

Detachable Belt Hanger

The Alpha-X has a two-piece belt hanger which can be dismantled by opening a single screw, allowing all position settings to be maintained while removing the holster body from the belt for easier space-saving transport.

The Alpha-X belt bracket is designed to fit only on a 1.5” wide competition style belt. It will not fit on a 1.75” or a 2” belt unless you are prepared to cut a piece out of the belt. And, like all Race holsters, it should only be used on a firm, rigid, thick belt.

Interchangeable Color Logo Inserts

The Alpha-X is available in black anodize only, with an assortment of optional color inserts for the hanger and body logos. You can change these laser-cut plastic inserts whenever you choose.

The IDPA PDR PRO-II holster incorporates our latest generation Kydex holster body, as used in the popular PDR PRO-II holster. It is an efficient, fast holster body, available for many popular gun types for both right and left handed shooters.

The PDR-PRO-II holster body does not include the Suede lining that the PDR offers, making it more suitable for competition use, where speed and ease of draw are paramount. Attaching this PDR-PRO-II body to our Belt-Ride Ambidextrous Hanger, makes this holster a perfect choice for IDPA competitors or for general carry and range use. The bare Kydex cannot be beaten for speed, quick release and smooth draw. Tension adjustment is done by turning one, or both Phillips head screws, which are accessible from the outside of the holster body, while worn.

This hanger positions the holster body up close against the body and provides you a solid, yet tilt adjustable holster mount. It can be used with 1.5-2” wide belts and is fully ambidextrous, working equally well for RH or LH holsters. If you are using the belt spacers (most will, as most use a 1.5” belt) you can choose to have those spacers both above, below, or one above and one below the belt as you thread it through. This will provide you some height adjustment.

Available for right or left handed shooters, in Black only.
