The Texas Shoulder holster is designed to accommodate 7 1/2 and 8 inch barreled guns, including the 1873 Colt Single Action and its clones, as well as the 1858 Remington, 1871 Colt Army, 1860 Colt Army, 1861 Colt Navy, 1851 Colt Navy, and their conversions. It also fits the Smith & Wesson American and most S&W big bore revolvers.
The Improved Texas Shoulder Holster ensures that your revolver is always secure and easily accessible. Crafted from high-quality natural leather, it features intricate embossing and a leather strap for shoulder support. Handmade from 6-7 oz oiled leather and stitched with linen thread, this holster is designed to closely resemble the original design.
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.
Choose between right or left-hand draw options. This holster is made from lighter weight leather for a closer fit to the body and enhanced comfort for all-day wear. Each holster is a faithful reproduction of the original design.
