Most good chest holsters come with a wait. Mine included. A custom Draekan is about a four-month build, because I cut and mold every one by hand for your specific gun. But I know not everybody has four months. Maybe the hunt's this fall, or you just decided you're done carrying a big revolver on your hip. So I keep a run of my most popular chest rigs built and sitting on the shelf, ready to ship in a few days instead of a few months.

Most of them are for revolvers: the big-bore wheelguns folks actually carry in the backcountry and in bear country. If that's you, this is the fast way in.

Why carry a revolver on your chest

A hip holster and a heavy revolver don't get along in the field. Sit down in a truck or a saddle, throw a pack on, and your gun's either buried under a hip belt or digging into your side. A chest rig moves it up onto your sternum: out from under the pack, off your hip, and right where your hand falls. For a .44, a .454, or anything bigger you're carrying all day, that's the difference between wearing the gun and fighting it. It's also a lot faster to reach when you actually need it.

The revolvers I keep in stock

Every one of these is the same rig as my custom work (wet-molded to the gun, cut from full-grain Wickett & Craig leather, and fully lined), just already built and ready to go.

Colt: Python & Anaconda

Ruger's big-bores are some of the most-carried guns in bear country, so they stay in stock: the Super Blackhawk, the Super Redhawk Alaskan, and the Toklat. See the in-stock Ruger chest rigs.

Smith & Wesson: 686 & 629

Taurus: Raging Hunter, Raging Bull & Model 44

Taurus gives you a lot of gun for the money, and the Raging Hunter, Raging Bull, and Model 44 all ride well on the chest. In stock and ready to ship. See the in-stock Taurus chest holsters.

Not just wheelguns: Glock & 1911

If you carry a semi-auto, I keep a couple of those in stock too: chest rigs for the Glock and the 1911.

Don't see your gun?

If your revolver or pistol isn't on the shelf, that's what the custom Draekan Chest Holster is for. I'll build one molded to your exact gun. That's the four-month route, but it's made for you and it'll outlast the gun. You can also browse all of my leather revolver holsters to see everything I build for wheelguns.

Ready when you are

Everything here is already built, boxed, and waiting. Order it today and it ships in a few days, not a few months. Browse the in-stock chest holsters and grab the one for your gun.
