{"title":"LEATHER CHEST HOLSTERS","description":"\u003ch2\u003eChest Holsters, Handmade in the USA\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBuilt by hand, for one gun: Yours.\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA chest holster is the ideal way to carry your backup handgun in the backcountry, up on your chest instead of fighting it on your hip. Sit down in a truck or a saddle, throw a pack on, and a hip rig is buried or in the way. Up on your chest the gun rides clear of your gear, right where your hand falls. For a heavy revolver in bear country (hunting elk or hiking miles from the truck), nothing else comes close.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery Draekan chest holster I build, I build the same way I have for close to twenty years: by hand, one at a time, wet-molded to your exact revolver or pistol. Full-grain Wickett \u0026amp; Craig leather, lined with a second layer so it holds its shape and never marks your gun, stitched with heavy bonded nylon thread. Made for your gun, and no one else's.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhich guns actually suit a chest holster\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost people come to me wanting to put their biggest gun on their chest to get it off their waist. I don't disagree with the instinct. But there's a limit at both ends, and I'd rather tell you straight than sell you something that ends up in a drawer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA 4\" to 6\" barrel is the sweet spot.\u003c\/strong\u003e That's where a chest holster does exactly what it's supposed to: the gun sits clean against you, the draw is natural, and you forget it's there until you want it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShorter than 4\" works fine. The Ruger Super Redhawk Alaskan is a stubby at 2.5\" and it carries very well on a chest rig. It's the one I'm asked for most for bear country. Where it stops working is the genuinely small stuff: a 1\" snub or a micro pocket .380 isn't what a chest holster is for, and those guns have easier homes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePast 6\" it starts getting big against your chest\u003c\/strong\u003e and the draw gets long. Plenty of men don't mind that at all.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnd the very big ones. A 7.5\", 8.5\" or 9.5\" big-bore is a lot of gun however you carry it: the hip gets heavy, the chest gets awkward. It isn't what I'd pick, and I'll say so up front. But that's my preference, not a rule. It comes down to your frame and what you're comfortable with. I'm 6' and 220, and my 5\" BFR is about as much as I want on my hip for a long day in the country. A bigger man carries more than I do and never gives it a thought. If a long-barreled big-bore is the gun you want to carry, that's your call to make. Tell me your build and how you'll be using it, and I'll build it right.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSemi-autos, revolvers, and your bino harness\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSemi-autos work better on the chest than most people expect, and there's a specific reason worth knowing if you hunt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA chest holster built for a semi-auto is \u003cstrong\u003eflat\u003c\/strong\u003e. That means a bino harness goes straight over the top of it and sits properly: no fighting, no bulk in the wrong place.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA revolver rig has the cylinder bulge, so a bino harness sits over it a little funny. It still works. It just isn't as clean as it is over a semi-auto. If you're running binoculars on your chest all season, that's worth factoring in before you choose.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSizing the harness\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere are four sizes (Small, Medium, Large and Extra Large) and the webbing is what sets them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMeasure where you actually plan to wear it.\u003c\/strong\u003e High on your chest, lower on your torso, somewhere in between. Wherever the rig is going to sit, measure around your body at that spot with a seamstress tape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo tape measure? Wrap a piece of string around yourself, mark it in two places, lay it flat on a table and measure between the marks. Whatever number you get, match it to the sizes listed. Measure 42 inches around and you want the Large.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDon't want to measure at all?\u003c\/strong\u003e Send me your height and weight and I'll get you very close. It's the question I answer most often, and it takes me thirty seconds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo things worth knowing that aren't on the size chart. \u003cstrong\u003eThe ranges listed are for the webbing only\u003c\/strong\u003e. The leather itself adjusts as well, slightly bigger or slightly smaller, so if you land right at the edge of a size you're still covered. And \u003cstrong\u003eif you're between sizes, go larger.\u003c\/strong\u003e You want adjustment room left over for when you've got heavy clothes on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eIf you get the size wrong, it's not a problem\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOrder a Medium, get it home, discover you're really a Large? Contact me and I'll send you the correct webbing. That's all it takes to change the size. No harm, no foul, and no need to send the holster back.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eBullet loops or a speed loader?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePeople go back and forth on this one, so here's what I actually tell them: \u003cstrong\u003ego with the bullet loops.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey're more streamlined and lower profile. They look better on the harness and they sit better against you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA speed loader is about two inches around before you put leather around it. Mounted on a harness it becomes a bump sticking off your chest. It works (I'll build it if you want it), but if you're carrying a spare, I'd put it in your pack instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCustom or off the shelf\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOrder one custom and I'll mold it to your specific revolver or pistol, from big-bore magnums down to compact 9mms. About a four-month build.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOr take one off the shelf.

A heavy firearm on your hip can be a pain in the ass once you’re wearing a pack, sitting in a truck, riding, or moving through rough country.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Draekan puts the gun up on your chest where it stays out of the way and where you can get to it without thinking about it. For a lot of the people I build these for, their firearm is bear insurance. If you actually need it, you want it where your hand can get to it right now, not buried under a pack belt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFull-grain Wickett \u0026amp; Craig leather\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery Draekan is cut from full-grain Wickett \u0026amp; Craig leather and lined with another layer of 3 oz.
