Lar45Simply Rugged Holsters?
Has anyone used a holster from Simply Rugged?
http://www.simplyrugged.com/ The pictures make them look pretty nice. I"m seeing if they can make one to fit the extra high front sight on my 500 JRH BFR.
Here is a pic of their Long Hunter with chesty puller straps.
They can be worn strong side, cross draw, or turned into a chest or shoulder holster with their Chesty Puller straps.
I just bought the BFR Bandolier holster from Magnum Research and it won't fit the extra high hiviz front sight

CarolinaHunterLar,
I just had Rob make me a Loaded Pancake for my 4 3/4" 500WE and a tricked out Cattleman for my 6" 475 Linebaugh. He makes some quality gear at very reasonable prices.

Dick ThompsonRob is a great guy & he makes very good holsters, I have 4 of them including a Chesty Puller. I use it a lot when I'm fishing, handy but out of the way. You won't be disappointed.

I looked alot around for holsters and really liked the simply rugged design. though was never thrilled with all the brass on the chest-pulley system.
I found
http://www.diamonddcustomleather.com/Holsters.phpThey make a great holster and I can vouch it
I know you didnt ask but just another option and they can customize to fit anything.

Lar45The Diamond D Guide's choice looks like a nice holster, but I think the pancake style might offer more clearnace for the front sight.
Maybe I can get them to just run the stitching a little closer to the edge to give me a little more room.

billinthewildRob just made me a cross draw for my CZ 2075 RAMI....excellent. In addition to doing good leather work, he is one of us....

KedronI bought one of the simply rugged chest rigs for a backpacking trip last year. It's very comfortable and keeps the gun out of my fly casting stroke. I like it very much.

Brandon.GleasonI have their sourdough models for my S&W 460, 57, and 60 pro, as well as a Barracuda for my Dan Wesson 1911. Rob builds a fantastic holster with really reasonable turn around times.

big_footI've got one of his loaded pancake holsters for a 7.5" .480 SRH and love it. I had a buddy of mine put a thumb break on it and I'm happier with it that way. Great holster! I really like the shell loops right on the rig too. Convenient and easy to get to.

Turk1961I have two of Rob's holsters and they are great. Also have the chest rig. His customer service is outstanding.
