Police duty doesn't stop when the sun goes down. The tactical flashlight is an essential piece of law enforcement equipment, and so officers need a reliable way to carry it hands-free while on patrol. Dedicated flashlight holders make it easy to carry a flashlight with you on duty, and also typically protect it from damage. We carry flashlight holders from some of the biggest names in law enforcement and tactical equipment, including Safariland, Bianchi, Blackhawk, DeSantis and 511 Tactical.
Flashlight holders are typically designed to fit a specific model of flashlight, typically one from one of the major tactical flashlight manufacturers such as Streamlight, Surefire, Inova or Pelican. Most examples of this style are designed to attach to the duty belt. However, options are also available for attachment to webbing or a loop panel, allowing them to be worn on a tactical vest or other platform. Most styles hold the flashlight vertically in a lens-up position for improved accessibility, particularly those with open bottoms. Some are open-topped for easier access, while others feature top flaps for increased coverage and protection for the lens. Leather is the traditional choice of material, and remains popular for its toughness and professional appearance. Ballistic nylon and molded laminates are also popular for their greater wear-resistance, and laminate materials are often finished for a leather-like appearance.
Lighter, more versatile flashlight holders consist of a polymer or metal ring suspended from a loop that fastens to the belt. These minimalist designs accommodate a wider range of flashlight styles, carrying them in a vertical, lens-up position. Some feature multiple rings, allowing them to fit different sizes of flashlight as well as batons. This section also includes combination designs intended to carry a flashlight as well as other equipment such as handcuffs or a magazine, as well as more specialized options such as wall bracket mounts.
