Fobus TA85 OWB Paddle Holster for Taurus 85/850 CIA Right Hand

The Fobus TA85 delivers secure passive retention for Taurus 85, 850, CIA, and UL85 revolvers through its precision-molded polymer construction. This outside-the-waistband holster combines reliable weapon security with rapid access for concealed carry and duty applications.

What Makes This Different

Unlike leather holsters that require break-in periods and suffer from moisture retention, the TA85 maintains consistent retention force and draw characteristics from day one. The passive retention system holds the revolver securely without manual release mechanisms, relying on precise fit tolerances and friction points. This design eliminates mechanical failure points while providing audible feedback during holstering to confirm proper weapon seating.

Key Features

• Passive retention system with adjustable tension screw for customized draw resistance
• Injection-molded polymer construction resists impact, chemicals, and temperature extremes
• Paddle attachment system fits belts up to 2.25 inches wide without belt removal
• Right-hand draw configuration with 15-degree forward cant for natural presentation
• Full trigger guard coverage with reinforced mouth for smooth reholstering
• Sweat guard protects firearm finish and prevents skin contact with metal components
• Compatible with Taurus 85, 850, CIA, and UL85 2-inch barrel revolvers

Field testing demonstrates consistent performance across temperature ranges from -20°F to 120°F without retention degradation. The polymer material maintains structural integrity through repeated draw cycles and resists deformation under stress. Law enforcement agencies and security professionals rely on this holster design for both uniformed and plainclothes applications where reliability cannot be compromised.
