Double Holster

[Thumper]

Threw this together last week as a joke. Thought you folks might enjoy it. What do you think?

 

[nobanforme]

Can you make me one?

 

[Magnum.35744]

Wow..

As a joke?

IMHO- I think it's a great idea! Will you being using it for serious work?

Good work

 

[Thumper]

Not at all, man...it keeps me from getting to my wallet! I'll probably wear if from time to time, though, especially at shooting events. It's my new BBQ rig.

Looks good. I think it would be easier to draw if the grips were facing the other way.

 

[Thumper]

That's how Bell Charter Oak makes theirs, but like most, I don't like to reverse my grip when drawing. Also, it makes the rig even LESS concealable.

Not that this thing is that serious...

This one is set up just like two standard holsters.

Looks to me like sitting could be painful!! I am not a fan of SOB carry, but looks like you did a good job on the holster. Fun BBQ rig.

ha, i bought something like that on e-bay, for a castor troy look. i have some photos of it with airsoft replicas, not sure how they are taken on this forum (first post and all). if anyone has a problem with the picture, i'll remove it promptly.

dont have any pictures of it on my person, as i didnt have anyone to take said pictures.

Thumper,

Forget the holster, I'm grooving out on the CQB and the Thunder Ranch.

 

[Tamara]

shiky,

The problem with a middle-of-the-back holster oriented with the grip facing out like that is that, while it looks cool in the movies, it's too easy to put a bullet in your own kidney on the drawstroke, which is actually considered fairly uncool in most social circles.

This is why Thumper's holster has the grips oriented inward, because his pistols are very much not airsoft.

 

[Manedwolf]

It also lets anyone who cares to sneak up and help themselves to a gun.

SOB = concealed. SOB OC = gun out of your sight and control.

Amusing as a joke, but that's about it!

 

[Tamara]

SOB OC

Help me out here. What's the "OC"?

 

[shiky]

from what i've read, OC refers to Open Carry.

I wouldnt carry SOB anyway, i'm a pretty hefty fella.

 

[Tamara]

Ah.

I thought "Why is SOB such a bad idea in Orange County, but okay everyplace else?"

I thought "Why is SOB such a bad idea in Orange County, but okay everyplace else?"

Yeah...I was guessing it might be that your Pilates instructor might feel it during your surfing warm-up.

 

[Manedwolf]

Ah.

I thought "Why is SOB such a bad idea in Orange County, but okay everyplace else?"

Hee...sorry, and yeah, OC = Open Carry.

So SOB OC would let a real SOB sneak up and take your guns.

 

[Thumper]

It actually conceals very well, but I stick with just one 1911 in real life. Having your spare mag cased in another pistol is ungainly.

Having said that, I HAVE successfully concealed a .50 DE.

Only click if you can appreciate another novelty rig.

BTW Tam, Basic Triggernometry: SAPro = TRS + CQB

You ain't hurtin'.

 

[wyocarp]

I want one of the doubles to fit two airlight .357's with grips out and tilted a little.

Looks like the perfect NY reload, faster than changing mags.
