Title: Simply Rugged Holster
Post by: Hazcat on June 05, 2007, 12:10:51 AM

I am on the edge of ordering a Simply Rugged Long Hunter type holster for my Redhawk 45LC.

Any thoughts?

I do not own one myself, but I know several folks who swear by them.  He is a member of sixgunner.com and seems like a true gentleman.  I don't think you would go wrong with his holsters.

I'm one of the guys who swears by them!

I have four or five, and they are (I believe) amazingly well-designed, especially for carrying a bit heavy DA revolver!

Thanks MB.  That's what I was hoping to hear. (except you just cost me $65.00  ;D)

I wanted to say a "Big Thanks" to MB for bringing this company to my attention (and the attention of others!).  I had been looking for a leather crossdraw holster for my 10mm Javelina (1911) with a 7-inch barrel that wouldn't break the bank.  At the Simply Rugged website, I found exactly what I wanted with no compromises!  In the future, I plan to buy Simply Rugged holsters for my S&W Mountain Gun and maybe my Blackhawk.

I love hearing about great products!

Thanks again!

Haz, I have two.  One a pancake for my 4 inch 44, the other a nifty sharkskin job for my Bodyguard.  Love them both.  You won't be disappointed.

Thanks Shooter32 for the welcome!  Except for all the Californians moving here, I LOVE this state (been here for eight years now).

NOW.............

I have to re-think ALL of my holsters!  I realize that it is a SIN to carry my Freedom Arms 454 in a nylon holster when hunting! It deserves some classy leather.  Also, I noticed that they make holsters for the Desert Eagle (in Alaska.... Of COURSE they do!).  I may need one for my DE.........  and................ and.............. and.............. And here I thought my wishlist of gun stuff was under control!  :o

MB's podcast is now costing me some serious money!  I can't wait!  ;)

I just got a Simply Rugged holster for my SP101 and it is great. I'm going to get one for my Blackhawk and one for my wife's GP100.

WOW!  I just received my holster today!!!  I am VERY pleased  ;D with the quality of construction, design and fit with my unusual 10mm "Javelina" 1911 with 7-in barrel.  The carrying options are both held to the belt tight and secure.  I recommend these holsters to anyone!  I definately plan to buy more and sell off my previous holsters that ride on the belt.

In short........ I LIKE IT!!!!!!!!  I have to thank Mike B. for his podcast as it brought it to my attention!
