Galco Vertical Shoulder Holster System for 1911 5-Inch Colt, Kimber, Para, Springfield Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is a very fine holster system at a good price.They use very nice leather and their fit and finish is excellent.The only reason I did not give them a Five Star rating is that I have a vertical holster system that I bought in 2003 (it's now July 2008).

Mine has wider shoulder straps for one.The holster has a steel coil spring to hold the pistol barrel into the holster.A loop of leather is pierced by the coil spring such that the bottom of the loop points up as a barrel rest.The magazine pouch even looks just a little bit smaller, either that or mine has stretched some which is possible after nearly six years.

Don't get me wrong Galco makes a superior product from any others that I've seen or used.Mine is going on its 6th year.It's sweat stained; a lot of the finish has worn off; even the "Chicago" screws have had their finish worn off.But, like the "pink" (copyrighted name omitted) bunny it still goes on ticking.You won't be disappointed in Galco's products as I have many and I'm quite happy with them.[I'm speculating, but since everyone has been affected by rising prices, while the dollar has declined 50% against the Euro since 2002, that Galco has had to make some changes, too.]

Product Description:
Galco combined features from our Miami Classic with a traditional vertical shoulder holster to create a system that's perfect for the 21st century's first responders and military personnel. Combat-proven in Iraq and Afghanistan, the VHS has been field tested over military uniforms and general hunting clothing with great success, and thousands are currently in use by American armed services personnel fighting the Global War on Terrorism.Although we did not set out to create another concealment rig, we discovered that it's hard to break away from our roots. The VHS provides a long-awaited alternative for those who want the concealment of our Miami Classic but, for whatever reason, prefer the classic vertical carry style.A key component of this patented shoulder system is its spider harness. All four points of the spider harness can pivot independently and are connected by our clover shape, trademarked Flexalon swivel back plate. This, along with our patented swivel connectors, results in a perfect fit and lasting comfort for virtually all body sizes and shapes.The Vertical Shoulder Holster System consists of holster, harness, ammo carrier and a set of system screws. Fully modular, optional accessories and components may be purchased separately.Whether you patrol the perilous sands of the Middle East, walk the mean streets of metropolitan America, or stalk the hunting fields of the world, the VHS will help you and your handgun stay secure in an often-dangerous world. Made for semiautomatic pistols and double-action revolvers, the VHS is ambidextrous and available in tan or black finish.
