Training Philosophy: NSR doesn't accommodate left-hand magazine release button placements. Their reasoning: "Train with the default setup of your gun. If you do a battlefield pickup, the gun will be in the default position." This isn't laziness—it's deliberate training methodology.

NSR recommends pairing their holsters with stiff nylon or leather belts like the S.O.E. EDC belt. A quality belt is non-negotiable for kydex carry—it's not an accessory, it's part of the system.
NSR works with dealers. If interested, check their Dealer section or contact them directly.
