#REDIRECT [[Enhanced Prosthetic#Concealed Holder/Cargo Unit]]
A common improvement to field agents with [[Artificial Limbs|prosthetic limbs]], '''Concealed Holsters or Cargo Units''' allowed one to hide an item within the thigh section of a prosthetic leg.  Special mechanical fast-draw holsters allowed for an agent to conceal a full-size pistol or short blade.  The ability to perform a quick draw on an opponent did require that their clothing be sufficiently modified, but it gave the agent the appearance of being unarmed and the element of surprise.  Rather than a special holster assembly the thigh could also be converted into a general storage area, able to contain objects in a space no bigger than half the width and length of the thigh.  This could be anything from data disks to explosives.<ref name=AGCO>''A Guide to Covert Ops'', p. 111-112</ref>
 
 
 
As with other prosthetic enhancements these were employed only by the intelligence agencies of the [[Inner Sphere]] with agents who already had a Type 3 or superior prosthetic leg.  The [[Clans]] were too philosophically opposed and the [[Periphery]] too poor to make use of them beyond rare cases.<ref>''A Guide to Covert Ops'', p. 109</ref>  Among the [[Manei Domini]] this upgrade was available to all agents with the necessary prosthetic limb.<ref name=JHS>''Jihad Hot Spots: 3072'', p. 124-125, 130</ref>
