Pistol Holster

[MTHunter1321]

Looking for a recommendations for a pistol holster to use while hiking with my family. We have a two year old that I typically have in a pack on my back. Don’t really want to wear my binocular case just to go hiking. Is there any chest type holsters anyone would recommend that you could wear with a pack on?

Gunfighters Inc Kenai holster is what I like.

Diamond D Custom Leather, Wasilla, AK is my fave.

I have the gunfighters inc kenai and love it!

Kenai is pricey, but I really like mine. Bought it for the same reason—kiddo on my back.

Check out razcogear.com. I purchased the holster that attaches to my FHF bino-harness. I’m thinking of getting the chest holster for when I backpack or day hike.

Have an older Uncle Mikes Sidekick for my .44mag...am thinking of the Razcogear for my 9mm. Buddy swears by it, just don’t know if I want yet another bino harness

Another option is the Simply Rugged Sourdough Pancake holster with the chesty puller chest harness. Makes a nice versatile system. I believe Diamond D has a way to attach one of there belt holsters to a harness as well.

Another vote for the Kenai. Good setup.

Check out Razco and his Gen 2 holster. He designed it so it can be worn with the bino harness and then you can take the system off and run it just as a chest holster. He also makes just plain chest holsters. I just order a couple for a couple new pistols.

You know his holster for almost any bino harness so you don’t need a yet another harness. They don’t come with a harness it’s just a holster. I’m not sure if that’s what you were implying but that’s how I read it. Forgive me if I misinterpreted.

Kenai chest holster is one of the best option for this.

I wore the same Diamond D leather holster for 20 years guiding in Alaska. Still going strong. If you like leather over Kydex it’s a great bet. I also have three Kenai’s for down in the lower 48; 9mm, 10mm and 45 ACP. The system is a great way to carry outdoors and active.

Hill people gear...get a kit bag. If you get a holster, you are stuck with that gun, this way you can choose which one to take.

I have a NW Retention chest holster. Very similar to the Kenai, and I like it a lot.

Plus they keep the timid granola crowd calm when you pass them on the trail

Thanks, I'm going to bookmark that bad boy. I keep a sidearm in my sitka bino pack but this might be even better
