Frequently Asked Questions
Will this holster fit the Ruger LC9s as well as the standard LC9 and EC9?
Yes. The Crucial Concealment Covert IWB is molded to fit the Ruger LC9, LC9s, EC9, and EC9s. These models share the same frame dimensions, so the holster provides the same secure fit and consistent retention across all variants.
How do I adjust the retention on the Covert IWB holster?
Retention is controlled by a single tension screw located on the body of the holster. Tightening the screw increases resistance for a more secure hold, while loosening it allows for a faster, easier draw. A small flathead or Phillips screwdriver is all you need — make small adjustments and test the draw until it feels right for your preference.
Can I use this holster with a red dot sight already mounted on my Ruger LC9?
Yes. Crucial Concealment cuts the Covert IWB from the factory with an open muzzle-end and an optic-compatible window, so most compact red dot sights mounted on compatible Ruger LC9 variants will clear the holster without modification. If you're running an unusually large or offset optic, verify clearance before regular carry use.
