davidhebert22 Report post Posted September 8, 2017 I'm looking to make a sholder harness to Hold two, two way radios. I've searched a few places with no luck. Any help would be appreciated. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dwight Report post Posted September 9, 2017 Exactly where on the harness do you want to carry the radios? Front, . . . where your shirt pockets are? Under each arm? Behind your back? How big are they? Lots of information needed to be able to help you. May God bless, Dwight Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SunLynx Report post Posted September 9, 2017 I can make a suggestion, but I don't know if it will do you any good. Could be a place to start though. I prefer to wear my phone on my person, but as I used to work retail I wasn't technically allowed to do so while working/"on the floor". So I made a simple figure-8 harness with a screwed on strap to keep the holster in it's preferred location directly under my arm. Because of my physical appearance unless my polo shirt pulled wrong you couldn't even tell I had it. To follow on that thought, and also @Dwight's thoughts, you might want to try a standard shoulder harness, but use a thinner strap at a specific location to keep it in place. Also consider the "profile" of your radios. I have the holster for my cell phone turned in such a way that it's tucked in to my arm pit pretty well, but that required some consideration to the direction I wanted it to face and how best to keep the profile from catching on everything or feeling really loose.

davidhebert22 Report post Posted September 9, 2017 Something like this picture. I just don't really know where to start. I was able to get a bullseye double sholder harness for pistols ordered from tandy to use as a starting point. The radios would be like 3in wide by 5in tall and 2in deep.

OK, . . . now we can do something. I make a shoulder holster that is worn so it points the muzzle down, . . . and is a re-work of an older design. It, I think, would be perfect for this application. The next problem will be getting the pattern to you. If you want, . . . send me a private message, . . . use the little envelope up in the top right hand corner, . . . and I'll see if I can't make a workable copy for you and mail it to you. The shoulder straps will simply go from the front of one to the rear of the other, . . . and the whole thing will have belt clips, . . . one on each side, . . . as does the one in the picture. It does not have the "H" harness in the back, . . . but rather a simple "X" where the two shoulder straps cross, . . . Let me know if you are interested.
