You did a terrific job sharing your insights about this Galco shoulder holster. Thanks for taking the time to do it. My hindsight wish is that you'd would have reviewed a vertical holster instead of the horizontal model.
I have occasionally worn one of these rigs for 20 years and it works fine, HOWEVER...
I have had the thumb break accidentally come unsnapped while carrying and because the holster is horizontal my gun fell out and hit the ground and that is NOT cool.
I don't understand what keeps it from moving when you draw. U don't want the rig following the gun as you draw, it should stay stationary. What keeps it from moving?
@MichiganZombieHunter Once you get the straps tightened down correctly the rig wont come forward when you draw. If you wear it too loosely then you might have that problem but I get a good draw every time.
I was looking for one of these for my s&w 4506 but it seems on the website they no longer offer it for that model. So i went with a classic lite....as from what i saw on amazon it showed up in the search and looks to be a universal holster. Only thing i dont like is it's suede and only offers one mag pouch
Awesome shoulder rig. You can buy the strap screws to retain the extra length of strap. It looks a lot better if you take your jacket off in public. (Open Carry).
great review,thanks for posting

how dose it adjust for bigger guys like myself
MrGlock55 2 months ago
@MrGlock55 Just take out the screws and lengthen the straps and put the screws back in. There is a lot of extra length so it should go pretty big.

@DEB0714 I have the screws set all the way up, I'm trying to come up with another way to do it that looks better.

Don't think that's a 'thumb hole'. Pretty sure its for a tie down accessory

Just a tip to tie up the extra straps use double sided tape. It is not able to be seen and holds better than eletric tape

Do you use other types of holsters too...or just the shoulder rig?
