The Safariland INCOG GLK 43X/48 is a deep concealment IWB holster engineered for shooters who carry Glock 43, 43X, or 48 pistols and demand both security and comfort in everyday use. This hybrid thermoplastic design sits close to the body for genuine concealment while maintaining the ergonomics and accessibility you need for a reliable draw. Whether you're running red dots, irons, or a stock slide, the INCOG adapts to your setup and your carry style—multiple positions, adjustable retention, and passive trigger guard retention give you the control to dial in the exact fit your gun and body demand.

The real innovation here is flexibility without complexity. The over-the-belt polymer clips open outward and lock naturally over your waistband, held in place by an actuated finger tab that flexes open for one-handed installation or removal. No tools, no fuss, no permanent commitment. Three included concealment shims—1/8", 1/4", and 3/8"—let you fine-tune how much of the holster sits outside your waistband, balancing concealment against accessibility depending on your body type, cover garment, and carry position. The improved clip strut design keeps the whole system stable and quiet under movement.

This is the holster for serious concealed carry: it handles red dot optics, gives you a full firing grip before the draw, and gets out of your way the rest of the time. Built for righthanded carry and backed by Safariland's reputation for duty and civilian gear that doesn't cut corners. The included magazine caddy extends the system's utility beyond the gun itself.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this holster work with my Glock 43X equipped with a red dot sight?

Yes. The INCOG GLK 43X/48 is explicitly compatible with Micro and Full-Size red dot optics, so your gun will draw and function normally regardless of which miniature sight you've mounted on the slide.

What's included in the box, and do I need to buy extra shims?

Each holster ships with three concealment shims—1/8", 1/4", and 3/8" thickness—plus a magazine caddy. No additional purchase needed; you have all three options on hand to find your ideal balance between concealment and draw access.

Can I adjust where the holster sits and how tight it grips my gun?

Both. The holster supports multiple carry positions to match your body and preference, and the passive retention is adjustable so you can fine-tune how much tension the trigger guard and holster body apply to the gun. The concealment shims also let you adjust how far the holster extends past your waistband.

Is this a right-hand or left-hand draw?

This model is configured for right-hand draw only.
