If you haven\u2019t heard of the PHLster Enigma yet, you may be living under a rock. It\u2019s nearly impossible to go into a gun-centric Facebook group and not see someone recommending the Enigma as a solution to some concealed carry problem.\u00a0<\/span>When PHLster first released the Enigma back in November of 2020, I was in the first wave of purchasers. The new CCW product intrigued me. It looked sort of like a belly band, but PHLster advertised that it’s benefits far exceeded any that a traditional belly band had to offer.<\/span><\/p>\n

PHLster has recently released the next generation of this popular holster system, the Enigma V2.\u00a0When Sarah with PHLster reached out to see if I\u2019d be interested in checking out the updates, I took up her offer to give my thoughts on the changes. She sent me the Enigma Express V2 for the Sig P365XL so that I could compare it to the original version of the same holster that I had purchased a couple years ago.<\/span><\/p>\n

Below I’ll go over what exactly the PHLster Enigma is, I’ll give my review of the Enigma’s performance, and I’ll dive into the differences between the new and old models.<\/p>\n
