How to holster your weapon in Starfield
When you pick up your first weapon in Starfield, the game doesn’t tell you how to holster it so you don’t accidentally shoot some poor unsuspecting NPC or waste some precious ammo. Sometimes, it’s best to put your gun away so no one can see it, too.

To holster your weapon in Starfield, simply press and hold the reload button. By default, the reload button on the Xbox controller is ‘X’ and on PC using mouse and keyboard is ‘R’.
Just hold the reload button down for half a second or so and you will put your gun away. Press the reload, shoot, or aim button again to quickly bring back up the last weapon you were holding.
