Whether your firearm is too long or bulky for a horizontal holster, or you simply prefer a vertical carry, this shoulder rig offers the ultimate solution.

Both the holster and the counterbalancing pouch are mounted on a comfortable leather cross-shoulder harness system, complete with belt tie-down straps for added stability.

These holsters are exact copies of our standard models but are priced lower to help sell out our existing stock.

The key feature of this system is its unique, time-tested rotational holster body, which tilts upon drawing. The gun is safely carried in a vertical position, held securely by natural friction. When necessary, the gun is quickly drawn at a straight angle. This holster effectively addresses the concealment issues often associated with full-sized pistols or large-framed revolvers, where a horizontal rig can create visible bulk under a jacket, suit, or shirt.
A major benefit of this system is its excellent concealment properties, classic appearance, and ultra-fast draw. The cornerstone of the holster is premium 0.15” thick, full-grain Italian leather, double-stitched with high-quality German thread. It is wet-molded and hand-shaped by a craftsman to match the specific lines and contours of the gun, all packed into the compact body.
Holster Body - The holster is made from two layers that are bolted together. It is secured in a vertical position by the safety strap, which prevents the holster from rotating unintentionally. However, this strap does not function like a standard thumb break. Once the steel-reinforced strap is released by the index finger, it allows the holster to tilt and enables the gun to be drawn at a convenient, natural angle. The gun is snugly hugged by the leather, while the muzzle of the holster remains open.
Counterbalancing Ammo Pouch - Depending on the gun model - revolver or pistol, the shoulder holster includes a matching counterbalancing magazine or speed loader pouch made out of the same premium leather as the holster itself. The pouch for pistol magazines features two tension screws to adjust clip friction when drawn and is always made on the exact clips, so please select the caliber and capacity. For extended or aftermarket units, choose “Other” in the dropdown and specify the magazine capacity in “YOUR NOTE” field at checkout. The speed loader pouches are designed to fit standard HKS loaders.
Harness and Tie-down Straps - Long-term comfort is a top priority. The entire harness system is crafted from premium cowhide, with the straps coated in a soft finish to maintain comfort. The holster and counterbalance are securely attached using Phillips head screws, and belt tie-down straps are included below the holster and counterbalance.

The
leather may require a break-in session after the delivery of the
product. The holster pictured in the photo gallery is made on an
illustrative gun and your actual piece will differ as it will cope with
the exact gun contours.
