I had a conversation with one of you guys on shoulder rigs a couple weeks ago, and thought I'd share this to show something a little different.
This first one is a horizontal rig for a 3.5" Model 27. Sports a veg lining, thumbbreak, and shark trim. He did not want anything on the offside of this rig so I just embellished the joint on that side a little to accent.
The second is a pivot rig for a custom Glock 460 Rowland conversion. The problem with a horizontal holster for a long handgun is the barrel protrudes front and rear and this is worse the thinner the user is. A vertical rig is really hard to draw from because of the barrel length. On this you pop the snap on the clamshell to allow the holster to then pivot down on the draw. Simple and effective. Everything on this is also veg lined with an elephant overlay.
Last but not least is another pivot rig for a 3" 696 44 special. He wanted to be able to wear this one in field use or conceal carry which is why I chose the pivot style for it. It sports a reload on the offside and a bunch of basket weave. I even stamped the liner of the clamshell on this one just to see how it would do.
