Chest Holster Harness for Belt Holsters

Recommended Posts

I don't usually need a chest holster but wanted to have the option when woods walking (Black bear and now mountain lions).  I built this harness so I can take my belt holster and mount it for chest carry.  Not the best job I ever did but it works and might give others some ideas.  I used web belts and harnesses from a tool bag and from a weed-wacker; the leather chest portion I made.  No need to have a separate dedicated chest holster.

Nice job and a very good idea. After a few recent posts showing very nice adaptable chest rigs for cross draw holsters, I have been kicking around this very thought. Al my hip holsters have a 15 degree forward cant. This should adapt nicely for that. Thanks for the idea!

Thank you both for your comments.  As I stated, I used on-hand straps that were collecting dust for the harness.  If I was starting from scratch, I would approach it differently; the holster carrier would stay approximately the same, but I would approach the harness part differently, especially where it attaches to the holster carrier.  @Hags - I would like to see what you come up with.  Once an idea gets started, it is amazing how many variations come out of it!
