See full Description"When you think of classic Italian beauties, the first thing that comes to mind might be Claudia Cardinale or Sophia Loren in their prime or maybe the Ferrari 275GTB but now you can add another classic Italian beauty to the list. The Italian made shoulder holster from Craft Holsters. The leather is fantastic, the fit is spot on (after a short break in period) and the overall look is fantastic! I could not decide between the vertical and the horizontal carry so I bought them both. I’m two thumbs up!"
This leather shoulder holster system is intended for horizontal shoulder carry and it’s a result of diligent and meticulous work of our craftsmen. The shoulder holster rig consists of the main leather shoulder holster part, leather shoulder harness, and leather and magazine pouch (for pistols) or speedloader pouch (for revolvers) serving as counterbalance. The entire shoulder holster rig is made of premium Italian full-grain leather, which grants the system a unique feel and very sleek look. The shoulder holster and ammo holders are sewn together with high-quality threads and the key parts of the main shoulder holster part are even double-stitched for superb durability.
This shoulder holster is your best choice if you’re looking for a custom-fitted shoulder carry option. As the main holster part is always molded on the exact replica of your pistol, it boasts a perfect, glove-like fit. This means the shoulder holster offers a very high natural retention. The main holster part is also equipped with a steel-reinforced thumb break leather strap, which enhances the holster’s retention and prevents your handgun from falling out of the holster or from being snatched away from you. If you prefer super tight holsters or higher draw resistance, you can further adjust the holster’s retention via a retention screw installed close to the holster’s muzzle end. The retention screw can be tightened with an Allen’s key of standard size.
While this shoulder holster system is mainly meant for horizontal shoulder carry, you can easily dismount the main shoulder holster part from the harness and use it as a standard belt holster and use it for OWB, SoB, and even cross-draw carry. The belt attachment slots on the back of the holster are designed to fit a 1.5’’ wide belt.
The counterbalance leather magazine pouch will take in two pistol magazines, but in case you order the system for a revolver, the counterweight pouch will be molded for two speedloaders. The double ammo pouch lets you adjust its retention too and you can readjust the closing flaps. The counterbalance part of the leather shoulder holster system also features a belt tie-down strap, which you can hook onto your belt for extra stability. You can also disattach the tie-down strap if you like as the shoulder system offers great balance and stability even without it (mind that the main shoulder holster part doesn’t feature a belt tie-down strap).
Magazine compatibility - Please note that the double magazine holster comes in a universal size, designed for double stack magazines of up to 16 rounds (up to .40 cal.). The double magazine pouch will take in only magazines with base capacity of the listed semi automatic pistol. The pouch isn't designed to fit extended magazines.
Speedloader compatibility - Please note that in case of a revolver holster, the counterweight speedloader pouch is designed to fit a standard HKS Speeloader. The speedloader pouch is designed to hold speedloaders with up to 6 rounds of .38 and .357 calibers.
Harness customization option - By default, the shoulder harness is adjustable from size S up to size XL (33'' - 47’’ chest circumference & 17'' - 24’’ top shoulder to waist length). In case you need a bigger harness, just enter your request with your measurements in the “Add a Note” field when placing your order.
