Many service members strongly prefer a quality leather shoulder system to the synthetic flap holsters issued by the military. We at Galco, along with some of our loyal customers, have taken note of the high demand for our shoulder holster systems among the courageous American military personnel who are fighting the ongoing War on Terrorism. The vast majority of Galco holsters sent to personnel in Iraq and Afghanistan have been purchased with the private funds of service members and their families. Galco elected to help support these fine men and women by instituting the Holsters for Heroes™ program.

Galco Holsters are one of the most popular manufacturers for duty and concealed carry holsters. You can choose from anke holsters, paddle, bellybands ect. All Galco holsters with safety straps and thumbreaks are designed to carry the 1911 with the “hammer down, chamber empty”. Galco 1911 fit holsters that are “open top” (no safety strap and no thumbreak)are designed to accommodate 1911’s in all safe “conditions” specified by the firearm manufacture.
