Members Brokenolmarine Posted August 26, 2024 Members Report Posted August 26, 2024 Very nice. I was thinking of making one of those for driving. I have a couple shoulder holsters for other guns, but I have a birdshead .357 and like it a lot, I thought the shoulder holster would be great for a driving rig. Quote

I agree, I think a shoulder rig would be comfortable when seated, than a hip holster. Quote Regards, Littlef Littlef - YouTube
Members Brokenolmarine Posted September 16, 2024 Members Report Posted September 16, 2024 I was thin when I was younger... Now that I'm old and gimpy, I'd need a lot LONGER straps. Quote

I cut a ton of strap length off when we did the final fitting. Quote Regards, Littlef Littlef - YouTube

I made a shoulder holster because of demand. Too many calls to be ignored. It took me a month of design, failure, adjustments, all mostly cardboard so no real loss. Then I made 3 different prototypes of the shoulder harness and picked what felt most comfortable after some wearing and that became my staying point for others. I've been wearing my shoulder holster as my EDC for almost 3 years now. You'll like a shoulder holster for your drives over a hip holster. You may even look into making a chest rig. They tend to hold the gun to the body a bit tighter and don't impede any arm movement Quote
Members Brokenolmarine Posted September 18, 2024 Members Report Posted September 18, 2024 I have a Galco Miami Classic I wear in the Winter months to carry my SIG P220 in cold weather. I have used this method for a couple decades, and love it. I carry a snubby in a pocket holster in warmer months. The Tombstone Rig, or just a clip on western cross draw for the SA 357 might be a great car gun for summer. Quote
