Galco Jackass Rig Shoulder Holster

I have way too many holsters in my closet, some of them shoulder
holsters. All of these holsters are meant to carry my 'handgun
dujour'. I have liked the idea of shoulder holsters for many
years, but with the exception of the old upside down revolver rigs
could not find one that was comfortable.
During the latter part of 1999 Galco ran a sale price of $99 in
reintroducing their 'Jackass Rig'. This was the predecessor of
the 'Miami Classic' and was the rig first used on the TV show Miami
Vice. I have finally found a comfortable shoulder rig! I bought
the one for the 1911 of course and I use it to carry my Kimber Pro
Elite. I even found a used left hand Galco holster that will fit
in place of the ammo carrier and can carry my Kimber Ultra Elite as a
second gun when I feel the urge. Of course a shoulder holster can only
be used under certain types of covering garments such as roomy
jackets. This shoulder rig conceals well and is comfortable for
wear all day. Being from Galco, of course the workmanship is top
drawer. I would certainly recommend this rig even though its
price is now in the $120 range. It is worth the Bucks!
