agree  Juan Jacob: Sí, holster es funda, como en desenfundar un arma. ¡Cuidado al mezclar niños y armas! Duda: acá existe "holster", tal cual, que es una funda que se pone abajo de la axila, ¿cierto?

  -> Yo conzco la palabra precisamente porque de niño uno jugaba a "indios y vaqueros" y siempre era esencial tener la funda para la pistola. Y aunque ahora apoyo el derecho a portar armas, yo jamás tendría una en mi casa. Precisamente por los niños.
