Carrying a weapon is about more than picking out a gun. In order to carry a weapon, you need to create a weapons system that consists of the gun, optics and other accessories. One accessory that deserves your care and attention is your holster, because your holster should be comfortable enough for you to wear on a daily basis in a variety of situations, should make your gun accessible should you need to draw it, and may even hold an extra magazine or two. The leather should be high quality, the stitching should be double-stitched. You will find all of these features in a Galco holster.

Choosing a holster is a very individual choice, based upon your weapon, how you intend to use the holster and personal preference. The first thing to consider is the purpose of the holster. If you shoot competitively, your holster need not be fancy, but should be sturdy enough to withstand repeated drawing and holstering. You might choose something simple like the Galco Avenger series belt holster, which will allow for smooth fast-draw action and stitched sight rails to keep your sights from catching when you draw your gun. Law enforcement officers looking for a comfortable way to carry their weapon often choose to wear a shoulder holster, and those who need a lightweight shoulder harness may find just what they are looking for in the Classic Lite. Both harnesses are made of high quality leather and feature the trademarked Flexalon back plate that allows maximum movement of the straps for a custom fit. Warfighters and tactical officers will appreciate the high quality leather of the Combat Master Belt Holster, as well as the double stitched seams and hand molded leather. Law enforcement officers sometimes choose something like the Ankle Glove Ankle Holster to carry a backup weapon. The Ankle Glove is a comfortable way to carry, and is a good option when a gun on your belt simply won’t work. Many conceal and carry users have discovered that the Belly Band Underwraps Holster is a good option, while many who carry concealed use the Concealable Belt Holster which is molded to fit specific guns. If you plan to carry concealed at work and after, you may need to use different types of holsters for your different types of clothing. If you carry for multiple reasons, you should have multiple holsters.

Your holster is an integral part of your weapons system. Purchase one that will last, from a company with a proven track record. Galco has been in business since 1969 (originally as The Original Jackass Leather Company), and their shoulder harnesses became famous when they were featured in the 1980s hit television series, Miami Vice. Former President Ronald Reagan had a Galco holster, too. Their products are still favorites of Hollywood, but more importantly, are the holster of choice for military, law enforcement and other professionals because they trust the quality of Galco holsters. As conceal and carry has become more popular, citizens are choosing to be lawfully armed and are discovering that Galco holsters are comfortable and easy to use for them as well.

Galco holsters have a lot of features of more expensive holsters, like premium leather and reinforced openings, but these holsters are reasonable enough for even the casual conceal and carry user to purchase them. Choosing a quality holster like a Galco, at a reasonable price, allows you to purchase more than one holster so you can be sure you have a holster to meet your needs in a variety of situations. You aren’t limited to carrying your weapon just one way.
