John Lee gets a holster

for those long trips.

Smith Model 60 riding in a Texas Custom Holster. Drivers side door mount.

Secure, discrete and readily at hand.

Couldn't ask for better.

Re: John Lee gets a holster

Nice. How hard is it to grab with your left hand against the door like that?

Re: John Lee gets a holster

That's why it has a spacer, the grab is easy, smooth and positive. Plus, allows me to stand up, holster/unholster when I get in and out....no fumbling from the seat necessary.

They have em for dash, column mount, inside and outside the center console, etc, etc.

This particular one works for DS door, DS kick panel, inside DS side console, under dash for right hand, outside of console on PS side, etc. Plenty of options.

Re: John Lee gets a holster

Not sure I'd like people possibly glimpsing a gun each time the door opens or closes. Unless you're keeping it on you whenever you're not in the truck.

I open carry 99% of the time. CC occasionally. Trust me....nobody notices you are wearing a gun because they don't glimpse anything of merit beyond arms length. That's why criminals find it easy to mug and rob ya and why when someone gets run down they say "I didn't even see it coming"....folks just don't see whats going on around them! They won't see a handgun on the door either.

Yeah. Had a couple extra holes down there from an old map pocket holder thingie. Figured I'd fill one and add a couple. Speakers is next but I'll have to get a big old drill bit to make those holes.

Re: John Lee gets a holster

Looks cool but, I share the same concern that someone else stated about someone seeing the weapon when I open the door like at the gas station. May not be an issue in NC. Are ya'll an open carry state? If so, understand.

NC is Gods Country for Independence, Freedom, Constitution and the Bill of Rights. If yall are worried bout seein guns....don't move here. If yall wanna be free in all the ways gaurenteed by the Founding Fathers, consider leaving where yer at. Be sure ya bring yer trucks when ya move.

Amen.

Its unfortunately getting worse in our County, land of the free...home of the brave , when those who take for granted thier freedom and the price that others paid to serve and stand up for the rights of this great nations freedom are warm in thier homes after a full meal , own a computer and have enough education to use it, are confused about someones holster and are selfish enough to type about it. I suggest spending some time in a 3rd world country, come home to this one and volunteer some time at the local VA Hospital. You might even hang an American flag on your home ( if your neighborhood ccr's will let you).

Re: John Lee gets a holster

I get real tired of people killing each other in God's name. I'm sure that's not his intention even though people have been doing it for centuries. The last war that we were truely fighting for our freedom was WWII. Our freedom had nothing to do with any since then. I support our troops for fighting these manufactured wars. It's just a pity they have to.
If you want to post on a truck thread about your love for guns then I have the right to post my opinion. I don't think this is the place for either but I'm not going to sit by and say nothing.

I do wear mine on my hip and on the door of my truck and car... All I can say if someone thinks they want to jack me they will have a HUGE surprise... I support your thought that you don't need to but all I will say is the way of a fool is right in his own eyes but the wise man is he who listens to council...

Nice job on the holster. Personally, I'll take my chances at being caught helpless vs always fully prepared, but that's just me. Carry on with your trucks, fellas.
