    Ruger Security 9 Holsters

    Ruger announced the Ruger Security-9 handgun in late 2017, and then the pistol started hitting the shelves for sale in February of 2018. The Security 9 is marketed as a medium-sized, high-capacity, polymer-framed handgun designed to target the home defense and CCW crowd.

    Although most polymer-framed semi automatic pistol models are typically striker-fired, the Security 9 is actually a hammer-fired pistol. The Security 9 uses what Ruger calls a "Sure Action" internal hammer as the firing mechanism. The Sure Action is also the same action currently in use on the Ruger LCP II and Ruger LC9. It's important to clarify that this hammer is an internal model and cannot be accessed like a traditional external hammer. Because of this design, the Security 9 only functions as a double-action-only (DAO only) pistol.

    The Security 9 gets high marks for its ergonomics and design, with the grip being surprisingly slim for a double stack model. The exterior has a finish and texture similar to the LCP II, which makes sense as many reviewers have described the Security 9 as a larger version of the Ruger LCP 2 chambered in 9mm.

    The Ruger Security 9 pistol is currently only chambered in 9mm Luger and is offered in many configurations, including:

    • A standard blued model
    • A blued model with night sights
    • A model with a smaller 10 round magazine
    • A version with a factory-equipped Viridian E-Series laser sight
    • FDE Frame version
    • Two-Tone finish model

    Holster Options for the Ruger Security 9

    While the Security-9 is technically classified as a "medium frame" firearm, it's a fairly large pistol with an overall length of 7 ¼" inches. However, it has a slim 1.02-inch wide slide, so it's not overly wide or thick like some double stack handguns. As such, there are several different holster styles that work for the Security 9 handgun.

    OWB Holster Options

    The size of the Security-9 makes it an excellent option for a belt holster or outside the waistband holster. Any of the belt holster models shown below are made in a version to fit this Ruger pistol.

    Our top-selling Security-9 OWB holsters are these:

    Don Hume H721OT Belt Model

    MTR Custom Dual Carry

    MTR Custom Deluxe Fullsize Quicksnap holster

    Ruger 9mm IWB Holster Options

    The overall size of the Security-9 pistol means it's not an ideal option for concealed carry, concealment, or inside the waistband carry, but we have some customers who can and do carry that pistol in the IWB position. Our most popular concealed carry holster and inside the pants holster models for the Security 9 are these:

    Don Hume H715M WCS IWB

    MTR Custom Adversary IWB

    MTR Custom Slimline Tuckable

    Security 9 Paddle Holsters

    Paddle holsters are popular because of their easy-on and easy-off capabilities.

    While we carry a few different paddle holster models available for several popular Ruger pistols, our best-selling model for the Security-9 is this model: MTR Custom Paddle Holster.

    Shoulder Holsters

    Shoulder holsters are an excellent potential concealed carry option if you don't wear a gun belt or have the capability to wear a cover garment to hide the holster.

    Our best-selling Ruger Security-9 shoulder holster is this model: Don Hume H770-AA Shoulder Holster.

    FAQS

    Here are some common questions that we've seen so far regarding Ruger Security 9 holster models: 

    I've seen on some gun forums that the Ruger Security 9 is the same size as a Glock 19. Will the Security 9 fit in a holster made for the Glock 19?

    Since the Security 9 and the Glock 19 are similarly sized and have similar dimensions, some holster brands (such as Don Hume) fit certain holster styles of the the Security 9 in a Glock 19 holster. However, this type of crossfitting seems to depend on the holster brand.

    I've got a Ruger Security 9 with a Streamlight TLR-1. Do you have a holster that will fit this setup?

    Yes. Almost any of the MTR Custom holster models listed below are available in a version to fit a Ruger Security 9 with a mounted Streamlight TLR-1. In addition to the Streamlight TLR-1, MTR Custom can also support holsters for the Ruger Security 9, with a number of popular light or laser models attached from popular brands like O-Light, Surefire, etc.

    I've read that the Ruger Security 9 is very similar to the new Ruger LCP 2 pistols, so will it fit in a holster made for the LCP 2?

    While the LCP II and the Ruger Security 9 share many similar features and functions, they are very different sizes. As such, a Security 9 handgun will not fit into a holster made for the smaller Ruger LCP II model.

    Do you have any belt holsters to fit the new Ruger Security-9 Compact pistol?

    Yes, we do, those can be seen here: Ruger Security 9 compact Holsters

    Where are your Kydex holsters for the Ruger Security-9?

    At this time, all we offer are Ruger security-9 leather holster options. We currently don't carry any Kydex holster brands.

    What's the retention system on these leather holsters?

    With holster models without a thumb break or retention strap, the retention is a passive system that relies on the holster fit and friction to retain the firearm. Note that most of the MTR Custom premium leather holsters listed below can have an optional thumb break added to the holster for additional retention.

    Will a Ruger Security-9 fit a holster made for a Ruger SR9? Both pistols look very similar in size?

    While both the Ruger SR9 and Security-9 look very similar, they have different dimensions, so the Sec.-9 pistol will not fit into a Ruger SR9 holster (at least not well).

    This page says that any holster listed below is available for a Ruger Security 9. Still, I don't see any of the holsters pictured below with a Security 9 shown in the holster, and I'm confused?

    We can understand that, so here's a brief explanation. The various weapon models shown in the holsters listed below are for demonstration purposes only. The holster models listed on this page are made to fit the Ruger Security 9 even though a Security 9 pistol is not specifically pictured in the holsters below. We try to photograph as many gun/holster combinations as possible; however, we do not own every single handgun model on the market. As a result, we are not able to show every possible combination.

    All the holster models below are available as Ruger Security-9 holster models, and all are available in a right hand or left hand configuration.
