**Please keep in mind that once the order is received, the manufactures will check over the order to make sure all the options that you choose will function properly when manufacturing. Some options may not work properly when manufactured. This is something that we may not know until the holster is being built.

Shooting Hand * 

Color * 

Stitching Color * 

Wanna spice up your holster a little, or have a different holster than anyone else? Make the holster unique and custom by adding some color stitching to the front of the holster only. Each color is made with heavy duty nylon thread, to resist easy tearing or dry rot damage. Keep in mind that colored thread may affect the color of the holster, the holster could be lighter or darker because its a different dying processing and so the dye will not run onto the thread.

Stitching * 

Double stitching is a second line of stitching. This will aid in better retention and long term use of the holster. When leather stretches it usually starts at the steam of the stitching due to the open holes from the thread, similar to pants and shirts they would tear or stretch at the seam of the stitching (weakest part). So by having a second line of stitching helps to prevent that from happening.

Exotic Leather * 

On large DA (double action) weapons the thumb break is placed decocked. Smaller SA/DA (single action/double action) weapons the thumb break is placed cocked and locked. If you would like your thumb break placed differently, then please add that in the comment section. If you order a holster with a thumb break there is no returns or exchanges or refunds under any condition.

Choose an extra attachment to wear the holster part on the Alaskan Rig on the leg or on the belt.
Drop Leg Attachment comes with: Leg Strap, Drop Leg Shank & Hardware to wear holster on the upper part of the thigh
Paddle- Plastic Paddle with additional holes on the back to adjust the holster to wear on the OWB

For revolvers or semi-automatic weapons a cartridge can be added for extra ammo (6 loops). For semi-automatic weapons you can add a single magazine pouch that would connect to the top strap of the chest rig.

This is a custom leather tie down, that attaches the holster part to a belt. This enables better security of the holster and closer concealment of the holster to the body. The leather tie down is detachable, in cases that you may not need (ex. overalls or no belt).

This is a custom leather shoulder Pad that can be adjustable by moving the pad on the strap for the best comfort when wearing. This pad is an estimate of 2″ wide and 8″ long. The outside pad is made out of durable bullhide leather for easy cleaning and wiping down. The inside of the pad is a comfy suede lining for better retention and grip of the pad.

Holster End

The holster end means that the barrel of your weapon will be cover, but you have the option to having the holster end sewn at the bottom or leaving it open. This is a preference of choice. Leaving the holster end open is good for target shooting. This will allow for debris to exit the barrel of the weapon after shooting a lot. Flip side, if carry the weapon in a pouch or outdoors (riding a horse, bike, hunting, etc.), one may want to enclose the bottom. So debris will not enter the barrel of the weapon. (Please see FAQ page for more information).

Internal Liner

When we craft a holster we use the smooth bull hide leather on the outside and the ruffer portion on the inside. When someone adds a liner we add a second layer of thinner bullhide leather and use the smooth side inside the holster with the two ruff sides against each other. This process is to enable is a smooth drawing of the weapon, instead of suede having some friction when drawing. Secondly, suede tends to not mold as easy on the inside as the bullhide, enabling less retention. The bullhide leather molds with great detail and definition in the leather. The bullhide leather is not as thick as the suede causing better concealment of the holster when wearing.

Hunter Rig (Alaska Style Chest Holster)

The Hunter Rig is a premium across‑the‑chest OWB holster, designed for hunters, hikers, riders, and anyone who needs secure, hands‑free carry in the outdoors. Also known as an Alaska Style Holster, this rig offers unbeatable comfort, stability, and accessibility — even while sitting in a deer stand or riding a horse.

Built for serious outdoor use, the Hunter Rig features three fully adjustable 34″ straps that you trim to your perfect fit. These straps anchor the holster firmly against the body, preventing shifting, bouncing, or sagging during movement. The result is all‑day comfort and rock‑solid retention, no matter the terrain.

For added stability, the rig includes an optional tie‑down and an optional 2¼” suede‑lined shoulder strap, giving you a soft, cushioned feel that reduces fatigue during long hunts or hikes. The holster itself is smooth leather‑lined (optional) and built with stainless steel and black anodized hardware for maximum durability in harsh outdoor conditions.

Each Hunter Rig is hand‑crafted and can be customized for firearms with aftermarket sights, optics, or scopes. You can purchase one complete rig for your primary weapon, then add interchangeable holster bodies for additional firearms — a cost‑effective, modular system built for versatility.

For even more carry options, choose an additional attachment:

  • Drop Leg Attachment — includes leg strap, drop shank, and hardware for upper‑thigh carry
  • Paddle Attachment — adjustable plastic paddle for OWB belt carry

If you want a chest holster that delivers comfort, retention, adjustability, and rugged outdoor performance, the Hunter Rig is the ultimate choice for hunters and adventurers.

 

NOTE: DUE TO THE FACT THAT OUR GEAR IS ADJUSTABLE THREAD LOCKER IS NOT APPLIED DURING THE PRODUCTION PHASE. PLEASE ARRANGE YOUR GEAR HOWEVER YOU AND YOUR APPLICATION DESIRE AND APPLY A BLUE THREAD LOCKER TO YOUR HARDWARE. LOST HARDWARE WILL BE REPLACED AT THE CUSTOMERS EXPENSE.

    My holster wasn’t an Alaskan-style holster, but an updated version of the WWII-era M3 shoulder holsters used by pilots and tankers. Changes included heavier lined construction, fitting to accept a Beretta 92FS (M9) and the addition of a spare magazine pocket. Quality was excellent, on par with my other MTR holsters.
