The Texas Shoulder holster is made to fit 7 1/2 and 8 inch barreled guns, such as the 1873 Colt Single Action and all clones there of as well as the 1858 Remington, 1871 Colt Army,1860 Colt Army, 1861 Colt Navy, 1851 Colt Navy and all conversions there of. Our Shoulder Holster also fits the Smith & Wesson American and most all S&W big bore revolvers.
The Improved Texas Shoulder Holster keeps your revolver always safe and at the ready. Made of fine natural leather.
Nicely embossed, with leather strap to hold holster on the shoulder. These
holsters are hand made from 6-7 oz leather, oiled to a rich tan. Sewn with linen thread. The boarder stamping on the pouch
was chosen to closely approximate the original. This holster is made of lighter weight leather than most makers
use today, making it more like what was use in the old days. This also makes it lay closer to the body and more comfortable to wear all day.
This rig is designed to have the strap across the chest.
In the past
we have made it with an X back design with no chest strap. We would get
complaints that the rig flopped around!! And yes it did.!!
The
solution is to wear a vest. Put the rig on, then put the vest on, then
poked the holster trough the arm hole, then button the vest, then put
your coat on.
Please choose right or
left hand draw.
This holster is copied from an original antique holster
in the River Junction Collection.
Most all of our holster designs are made from originals we have found.
These holster are crafted for River Junction by our most talented
leather-smith. Each piece is hand-made for us and cut in their shop from
the hide. The piece is worked and tooled right on the crafters bench
and all are dyed, oiled and sewn by hand. It is the hand sewing that
makes for the strongest stitch much superior to the machine stitch. All
that at the most favorable price.
