Stiff leather will not help the situation when the cause is clothing getting into the trigger guard and depressing the trigger when holstering. The user has to be aware of the potential and take great pains to make sure a shirt tail or jacket hem doesn't enter the trigger guard. With the clothing inside the guard the firearm will discharge as it is seated into the holster. It is a real problem with Inside Waistband holsters.

Scabbard for a Scoped Sharps Rifle

That is a fitting scabbard for an outstanding rifle. Perfect match, outstanding work. -

1911 shoulder holster
RickHodges replied to chuck123wapati's topic in Gun Holsters, Rifle Slings and Knife Sheathes
Glock and similar trigger "safety" systems are defeated when clothing, be it folds of t-shirt, outer shirt, jacket, get into the trigger guard as it is being pushed into the holster. The result is a negligent discharge. Holster design won't prevent it, operator training and vigilance will. Oh never fear, people seem to find a way to have negligent discharges with 1911's too. -

Conveniently Carry Multiple Handguns?
RickHodges replied to RVM45's topic in Gun Holsters, Rifle Slings and Knife Sheathes
I'm afraid I am of the school to carry one at the ready with spare magazine(s) available. If I need to transport many others a backpack will do nicely, with the guns wrapped in pistol rugs. I know that isn't the answer you are looking for. While working I sometimes carried a small 380 auto as a back up piece in the pocket or a shoulder rig, but I don't think that is what you are asking either. -
2 gun rig for 5-1/2" SAA's
RickHodges replied to Josh Ashman's topic in Gun Holsters, Rifle Slings and Knife Sheathes
I like these a lot...good looking and practical as well. Yes I like thumbreaks.....if you can put a 1911 in a cowboy holster (Wild Bunch) you can certainly use an imminently useful thumbreak with a SAA holster. -

Brass Cartridges Turning Green
RickHodges replied to x101airborne's topic in Gun Holsters, Rifle Slings and Knife Sheathes
Don't store brass cartridges in leather. Nickle plated cases fare a little better.
