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.

And nuclear power so the lectricity is elcheepo!

Good golly, I am sorry....so insensitive....members from Commifornia, the Socialist Republics of Jersy and York and the poor suffering overtaxed masses of Marylandistan not to mention the overseas members could be in shock at this point!

I like very much! I agree, lots of those freedom lovin' folks need to move to NC. Don't even THINK about moving to Oklahoma, it's way too hot, and inhabited by hostile savages.

Re: John Lee gets a holster

Ha! As long as its close by count me happy. Since I ain't got no cupholder, I use the confluence of my right hip and the seat back to balance the daily GigundoCoke while drivin and havin the Credit Card off to the left keeps it dry!

Re: John Lee gets a holster

Starting in West by God and heading South in my situation, or East for most of this fine state. We can OC on into Virginny and down with them Tarheels. I don't know about OC with them Palmetto boys but my CC card is good with them and with those Georgia Peaches and the gators in Fla.

Now then when I head West I can go all the way to my home state of Califunny before I have to disarm my person. Once I get to that border my rights are severely repressed.

Sharps40 I like what you've done there.

Re: John Lee gets a holster

Guess I'm just not redneck and ignorant enough to feel I need to pack a gun to be " 'Merican"

Personally got nothing against guns, feel it's a privilege, not a requirement.
Responsible people with them don't scare me- the ones that "have to have them to defend God and Country" do.... Seems they're the most paranoid , of what??who knows.

To each there own, just not a big deal for me.

I guess I'm "redneck and ignorant" by your measure. Seems a bit judgmental, but to each his own. I choose to carry every day, as is my right, because I'm an American (.spelled with an "A"). I choose to carry because I have the ability and what I believe to be a moral duty. I would feel far worse if harm came to my family or a fellow citizen because I took the easy and convenient path and left my weapon at home. Carrying is not an easy or "redneck" thing, it's a responsibility thing. Apparently my military service and getting familiar with other parts of the planet have skewed my view, but there's a big difference between "paranoid" and prepared. When trouble happens the unprepared usually get called victims or casualties, but like you said, to each his own.
