Hi and welcome!
What kind of holster would he wear? Outside the waistband? Concealment? Cowboy? Do tell about your well-intentioned Christmas gift. |

I really like my rig from Tucker Gun Leather
And while I don't any leather from them yet (have a holster on order) I've always liked the looks of El Paso Saddlery. Also, get his opinion on it. I don't know about everyone else, but I'm pretty damn picky about my holster, belts, ect. |

He always comments on the James Bond over the shoulder kind of. I don't know what those are called, but I'm sure there's a name! I bought him tickets to a concert at Red Rocks. He was so shocked on Christmas morning his face was priceless. Problem is Colorado is a few states over from us (10+ hr drive each way), during a busy time at work for him, and we have a toddler. Logistically we couldn't make it work. I ended up just selling the tickets to make our money back, but it left him gift-less. I've used the money to buy him some things throughout the year he's wanted / needed, but it's just not the same was having a "gift". |

I know he doesn't own one of those, but always comments on it when we watch the older movies. |

I know I've always heard that the Galco Miami Classic is one of the most comfortable shoulder holsters you can get, but I've never had one. It's what Sonny Crockett had in Miami Vice. He is right-handed, but he shoots left. |

El Paso Saddlery had been in business for over 100 years. Be sure to check them out. I especially like their lined holsters. The Tom Threepersons line is a very good open carry, field holster.
They do have concealed carry holster options too. http://epsaddlery.com |

Thanks for that! And right in a price range I'm comfortable with. I'll have to call them tomorrow & see if they make the shoulder holster for lefty's as online they only give me the option of right-handed. He is right-handed, but he shoots left. I am on my 5th holster, wore 2 out 2 others fell victim to a golden retriever that chewed things when he got frightened by thunder. good holster with no complaints. |

Unfortunately I'm not too in the know re: shoulder holsters, but maybe someone here can offer more advice. |

For our "leather" anniversary, my wife got me this combo from Mean Gene Leather. It is a belt and 2 mag pouches that work with a bunch of different mags or flashlights/multitools, etc. If he has a couple different pistols, a nice belt would serve him better than one specific holster maybe? He did just come out with a line of holsters too. He's a great company/guy to do business with.
