Alaska guide creation holster

[Elkoholic87]

I just used it for the last 4 days elk hunting with my exo pack and had it on my right hip belt. It worked great. Would definitely recommend.

Can you share a photo? I received my holster last week and had it mounted onto my EXO, but it's a little floppy. Is yours pretty tight against the belt?

Received my holster 3 days ago and have been playing with the setup ever since. For those of you who like the Razco design, here’s a way to run it right underneath the bino harness.

I'm curious to hear how this works out for you. It kind of looks like it would flop around a little the way it's rigged there. Have you experienced this at all?

For those of you who have purchased, how is it is the field?

I don’t have a photo. I left it up with my hunting gear (no cell reception there). It is a little loose but i threaded the hip belt strap through the plastic clasp as well and that helped. I know that isn’t what it was designed for but it works. After the season i am going to get some velcro sewn on it that can velcro to hip belt like the accessory pouches do.

Did yours come with 2 of the clips? Mine onlycame with 1....

 

[WJS23]

It’s funny that your only came with one because I ordered the gps pouch and it came with 2 and my buddy liked it so he ordered one and when his showed up it only came with 1 clip so he called Black ovis and the sent him a new pouch and again it only came with one. I don’t know what the deal is with that.

Should have clarified; I purchased the holster and the GPS pouch at the same time. Each pouch came with 1 and I use the GPS pouch on the harness(no need for the clip) so I just took that one and added it to the holster.

It does have a little bit of play in it but doesn’t affect the drawing motion. I usually run it on my pack belt and then if I drop pack I can quickly just clip it to the bino harness and continue with the stalk.

So I got mine to hook to the kifaru belt because I thought it would mount up right to the molle. Turns out I misunderstood how it mounts, the dual split straps hold the holster to the clip not the other way around. Still trying to decide if it will do what I want if I change it up a little.


Hope that makes sense... ha

I was thinking the same thing. Going to try one made by 5.11. The LBE holster.

Anyone run this strictly on the bino harness strap?

I apologize for bringing up a dead post, but mountainman406-did you field this setup and how did it work out? Have you ran it with a pack with a hip belt?
I’ve got a AGC on the way, and run an Eberlestock X2 and am really looking for a way to carry a sidearm, preferably on my bino harness. My usual “tanker” chest holster doesn’t play well with the X2 but want options for bowhunting in southern AZ.

Awesome! I was looking for some feedback like this...even if from 2 years ago! I just ordered one to outfit my stone glacier pack.

Gents-

I went through a long expensive process of finding the most comfortable AND accessible pistol holster/bino pouch combo. I literally have owned or own all of them.
I just sold my FHF with the razco holster set up. Don’t get me wrong it was my go to rig, UNTIL I just got FFD’s.

R.A.P. bino harness

As seen at SHOT Show 2020 Constructed of military grade materials and inspired by years in the woods- The R.A.P. bino harness was designed as a final solution for those wishing to carry binoculars while maintaining discreet rapid access to a compact pistol, though it adapts readily to other...

Its the most functional and comfortable (think no bounce or flapping) and it gives me the fastest draw (yes I live fire timed them with a PAC timer to include first round hits)
For my money-and my style of hunting I now use FFD’s rig. The features are thought out and designed by both a combat veteran and a backcountry hunter.
If fast access to your pistol is important-no other bino harness/holster combo comes close. (Mark my words-there will be a copycat effect) as the tear away access is next level stuff.
Hope it helps some of you from climbing the expensive bino harness ladder

Mine arrived the other day. Holds the Bersa .380 nicely. Matches my Stone Glacier Evo 3300 perfectly! Very happy.

This looks way more functional and comfortable. I may need to grab one of these don't need another Bino Harness as love my AGC for hunting but this would be awesome for preseason scouting!!

I just ordered one myself... I hope it works out with my binos/pistol. I think the idea is the best I’ve seen

I was curious as to what you thought about the X strap configuration ? I currently use the fhf right now and kinda think that the elastic give helps when breathing heavy. What do you think ?

 

[blacktail sniper]

what would u say is the optimal gun size for your set up? I have an old 1911 colt commander, sig 365 xl that may be too small, couple Glocks and a the old sw airtight 44 which I would take in grizzly country

I’m sure you will be very happy with it.
As far as their being no elastic-I see it as a positive. When I tighten my harness, I set the exact “tension” that I want and need for various situations (hiking versus quick jog, glassing session vs shooting bow etc)
With the elastic on my other harness, I found that I could only get so tight before I was taking up the give the elastic had, rendering it useless. Plus elastic will eventually wear out, and I don’t want any “give or spring” when I am going for my pistol one handed in a high stress situation. There could be a time when it’s my support hand going to gun instead of strong hand-and I want that pistol NOW!
Hope that helps-

I like the G19 or even 43 in the size I have. I don’t think the commander will fit. I’m pretty sure they are coming out with a Duty size harness for full size pistols and bigger binos.
In my experience of reaching out to them-they are excellent at being responsive (even when you ask as many questions as I did)
