My First Chest Rig

[Murray]

This was made for a client in Wyoming. Due to service related injuries, hip and shoulder carry would not work for him, so he wanted a chest rig. The other stipulation was the use of the clip from a UM-85 holster so that the rig could be modular and could accommodate any holster with the same clip.

Thanks for looking, Enjoy.

That is a great setup, and using the clip was the best idea I have ever seen. Your workmanship is outstanding. Its craftsmen like you, that sets the bar for all to reach. I also have to use a chest holster. Thank you for sharing.

Thank you, Howard, for the kind words. This was one of those jobs that I just couldn't say "No" to. A chance to help out a Vet and do something totally new (to me) was too awesome to pass up. None of us ever reach the bar, but that shouldn't ever stop reaching for it. Thank you again.

Very nice! I like the color. It looks very refined.

Mind sharing where you find the hex screws and finish washers? I've been looking for some just like that.

[Murray]

Thank you, Sir. I appreciate it.

As for the screws, we have a tack shop in town, I get them there. I have no idea where else to find them....sorry.

Can the clips be purchased separately or do you need to canabalize a holster for them?

Thanks

[Murray]

These were cannibalized. But I looked all over for the clips and could not find them any where. I guess I will be stocking up on the old holsters.
