Shoulder Holsters

This Southern Trapper shoulder holster is one of my favorites...

When I called the guys at Southern Trapper to have them create this special blue & grey holster for me, my intention was to use it with my bright blue Gold Cup that has the mirror finish. It turned out that I'm using it with my nickel Government Model instead. A really good holster can last a lifetime, and then some. But when you find one you really love, buy two if you can.

There are only a handful of custom makers still in business that I can speak to from personal experience. Southern Trapper is about as good as it gets, in my opinion. This particular holster is the most expensive shoulder holster I've ever purchased, but I know one thing for sure. It will likely be around long after I'm gone.

My MOS when I served in the United States Army was 76Y. For you non-military readers, the Military Occupational Specialty of 76 Yankee means that I was a Unit Armorer. While on REFORGER 85, I trained with German Paratroopers and qualified as "Expert" with the German G-3 rifle, the Israeli Uzi 9mm sub-machinegun and the 9mm handgun.
