Nichols Avenger™
169

We prevailed on designer Richard Nichols to put his name on this one — and what a holster it is! A fresh interpretation of the trailing holster he helped popularize, this one includes a host of unique features such as reversed construction so the smooth leather grain is next to your handgun where it belongs. A dual-plane open muzzle suits both standard and shortened barrels. The double reinforced holster mouth has adjustable tension at one end and a double-thick belt slot at the other. An integral belt loop on the back cooperates with the outboard belt slot for stability and concealability. A full time strapless design is made, for the professional with "the need for speed!" Available for most semi-autos.

Comfort-Flex®
101

Our shoulder system features a specially contoured harness that prevents the center piece from riding up and placing the weapon's weight on the base of the neck. The weight is on the shoulder muscles, where it belongs, preventing the pain that may be experienced from an improperly designed harness. The rear strap attaching point is at the lower edge of the holster which offers a diagonal carry for maximum concealment, even with 5" autos or 4" revolvers. Constructed of premium cowhide, using black hardware, the "Comfort-Flex®" system rides more like a vest than a holster. Available for most semi-autos.

201 Available for most revolvers.

104 Optional magazine side tie down.

Comfort-Flex® II
157

Our new "Comfort-Flex®" ankle holster provides un-paralleled comfort and security for those who favor this carry mode. Constructed of a special low-stretch elastic, the gun hugs the ankle closely for maximum concealment, with just enough give in the holster for comfort. Thick genuine sheepskin padding absorbs perspiration and prevents the holster from slipping. The holster secures to the ankle with a hi-grade hook and loop closure. Available for most autos and revolvers.

FlatSider™ XR13
168A

Nichols' approach to this popular holster genre is extra comfortable because it's flat on one side! Using our special method, this holster is molded in fine leather to fit your handgun with 100% of the holster pocket formed away from your body. At either side of the holster pocket are curved belt slots that cooperate to provide stability on the belt with unparalleled concealment. Inside the holster is a full-length molded sight channel. The strapless design is backed up by an adjustable tension screw that does double duty as a trigger guard stop. The special dual-plane muzzle is suited to both standard and shortened barrels. Available for most semi-autos.

Available for most semi-autos.

Businessman™
152

The inside the waistband holster requires only a tucked in shirt for concealment, and is designed for those who cannot consistently wear a concealing outer garment. The only visible part of this holster is the belt loop which is furnished with a key ring for camouflage.

Yaqui Slide

Available for most semi-autos.

FlatSider™ XR7
107

"Flatsiding" works so well on our Dual Slot Holster, Richard Nichols adapted it for shoulder holster carry! Using our special method, we molded this holster in fine leather to fit your handgun. The twin harness tabs are carefully positioned so the gun grip hangs close to your body, where it is comfortable and concealed — and there's an adjustable tension screw that doubles as a trigger guard stop. The dual-plane open muzzle accommodates both standard and long barrels and minimizes "printing" through the jacket. It is fitted with our own "ComfortFlex®" double shoulder harness, which is cut from soft, strong leather and completed with a matching ammo carrier and provision for belt tie-down. Available for most semi-autos.

Classic 3 Slot
166

What can we say about this holster, except that it has ranked high in popularity among professional gun carriers since Roy Baker cooked up the first one many years ago.

Express™

The "Express" pocket holster solves the problem of the gun "printing" by attaching a wallet shaped flap of leather to the leading edge of the holster. This allows a full firing grip from the leather and assures the holster will stay in the pocket when drawing. While designed for the effective strong or weak side front pocket carry, the "Express" works well when worn in the back pocket. Available in natural rough-out finish only.
