{"product_id":"korth-chest-holster","title":"Korth Chest Holsters In Stock","description":"\u003ch2\u003eIn-Stock Draekan Chest Holster for Korth Revolvers\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlmost nobody builds leather for a Korth. Owners go looking and come up empty, and the advice they usually get is that the gun is close enough to a Smith and Wesson to use a holster built for one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt isn't. The two are close, and close is exactly the problem, because a gun that is close will go into the wrong holster and sit in it wrong. The frames are different and so are other details. In a holster wet-molded to one specific revolver, different is something you feel the first time you put the gun in it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Draekan gets the revolver off your hip and carries it high on your chest instead. The weight is spread across the harness, the gun stays clear of your pack belt and other gear, and it's right where your hand expects it to be when you reach for it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNobody ends up with a Korth by accident. If you went looking for the best built revolver you could find, the leather it rides in ought to be held to the same standard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBuilt for the Korth it's listed for\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI don't build these as universal revolver holsters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery one is wet-molded for the specific Korth model and barrel length listed on this page. Frame size, cylinder size, barrel length, trigger guard, and the overall shape of the gun all affect the way a revolver fits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat's why I build the holster around the actual firearm instead of making one oversized pattern and calling it close enough.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe result is a holster that holds the revolver where it belongs and looks like it was made for that gun, because it was.\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 a second layer of 3 oz. Wickett \u0026amp; Craig.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat two-layer construction gives the holster the structure I want while keeping the inside smooth against the firearm. After forming, the holster stays firm and keeps its shape instead of turning into a soft leather pouch after a few seasons of use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI build these to be used, not babied.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery in-stock rig is rich brown with white stitching.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHarness that stays out of the way\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe harness adjusts from both sides with simple pull tabs, so you can change the fit in seconds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat matters when you go from a T-shirt in warm weather to several layers and a winter coat later in the year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere aren't loose strap ends hanging all over the place either. The extra webbing stays contained in the harness, so once you have it adjusted, everything stays clean and out of the way.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSecure retention without making the draw complicated\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKorth revolver models use a leather hammer thong for retention.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt keeps the gun secure when you're hiking, riding, climbing, working around camp, or moving through thick country, but it's still simple to release when you need the revolver.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo complicated hardware. Nothing you have to think about.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThese are already built and ready to go\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the in-stock version of the Draekan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnlike my normal made-to-order holsters, these are already built for the Korth models and barrel lengths shown here, so there's no custom-order lead time. Right now that's the Mongoose .44 Magnum in 4\" and 6\", which also fits the 8-shot .357 in those same lengths because it's the same gun apart from the cylinder, and the six-shot Mongoose .357 in 3\", 4\" and 6\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf your exact Korth is listed and the holster is in stock, it's ready to ship. Ships within 3 to 5 business days.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFit\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease make sure your exact firearm and barrel length match the configuration listed before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you don't see your Korth here, you can still order a \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/justincaseholsters.com\/products\/draekan-chest-holster\"\u003ecustom Draekan\u003c\/a\u003e built specifically for your firearm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShips within 3 to 5 business days.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Just In Case Holsters","offers":[{"title":"4\" Mongoose .44 Mag \/ 8-Shot .357","offer_id":47429528813743,"sku":null,"price":599.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"6\" Mongoose .44 Mag \/ 8-Shot .357","offer_id":47429528912047,"sku":null,"price":619.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"3\" Mongoose .357 (6-Shot)","offer_id":47429528944815,"sku":null,"price":599.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"4\" Mongoose .357 (6-Shot)","offer_id":47429528977583,"sku":null,"price":599.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"6\" Mongoose .357 (6-Shot)","offer_id":47429529010351,"sku":null,"price":619.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0222\/1218\/2096\/files\/Kodiak_Chest_Ruger_GP100_3_1763786786692140228f90f2528.jpg?v=1763786788","url":"https:\/\/justincaseholsters.com\/products\/korth-chest-holster","provider":"Just In Case Holsters","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
